Most major ones I have posted here on the E60 board, but often many may be overlooked if not in some discussion. AS always, if you believe a bulletin pertains to your issue you can PM me and I can most likely send a copy via PM response or email for clean PDF copy(need email address to be able to send PDF as an attachment)

I have a link to ALLDATA which should cover about the last 14 months worth. I am not sure they have them all but it looks pretty comprehensive as best I can tell

http://www.alldata.com/tsb/BMW/index-issue.html

I will be updating my list today which will be as of the first week of April

Update #7. Will provide imbedded Excel in Word file if I see a request. Otherwise, just PDF
Please post the Excel in Word file. I find the embedded Excel file very useful as it has hyperlinks so that I can just open and see if they apply to my car. Thanks! Tom

cobradav,
I checked the linked website and I saw Mini Car&Key Memory.
Is there a chance to get such a list for the E60, too?

Maybe this one:
Programming/Coding Explainations
09 03 98
November-05
E60/E63/E90
Car & Key Memory (Updated date with additional E90 info Supercedes Nov 05)

Or this one:
Programming/Coding Explainations
B090398_Att5_CKM_E60
P/O 09 03 98
E60/E63
PDF of car and Key memory settings

I'm really interested in the different possible settings of the E60 and German dealers don't want to tell you too much details...
