At the top of the document download page, there is a link "Click here for ECM Reprogramming Documents". When you follow that, there is a page that tells you it is an extra $100. It has a paypal link but when I click that the page just reloads. I don't get taken to paypal or anything.

What are the ECM reprogramming documents?
Are they worth the $100?

Need to replace my PDF of Section(Body Care and Repair BQ) from 111R Service Manual

I paid for and downloaded the complete 2004 service manual/notes from Lotus US website about 3 years ago, using the links in this thread. I'm having some repairs carried out this week after a fender bender, and went to view and print the section "Body Care and Repair" to find the file is corrupt. I hope that someone is kind enough to email me a copy of their pdf.

I haven't used my paypal for years and wasn't able to pay and download again.
My email is gordonatbla-archdotcom

A kind member helped me out.
Thank you again sir.

Should there be a section titled "Exige S/C" ? It is listed in the "Introduction & Index 07-01 Update.pdf"

If you can assist, please PM me, thanks!

Introduction & Index 07-01 Update
01. TDP Technical Data - Engine 06-02 Update

03. AH Chassis
04. BQ Bodycare Repair

10. FJ Transmission 07-01 Update

20. WD Airbag System

26. 2-Eleven Supplement

At first I thought 07. DH, Rear Suspension, was missing. It doesn't show up in the list of available downloads, but if you do a search for it, it is there.

I'm not sure why the two supplements break with consecutive numbering.

Also, there are service bulletins through 2009-02, although the file naming schemes seem to vary.

There is also a lot of Esprit information on the site, but I didn't delve into that too much, except to note that the original Elise introduction and index may be found there

I did manage to download most of the Federal Elise Service Manual. I managed to miss #21 Passive Restraint and the #23? 211 Supplement. Does any body have this? I'm a stickler for completeness.

The Introduction and Index section lists "Passive Restraint (North America)" as section WD. Section WD would seem now to fall under #20, Airbag System. I imagine this has superseded #21.

[agirls]

I have 22. 211 Supplement, but none say passive restraint.


If you pm someone your email address, maybe myself or someone else will be kind enough to email them to you.

[HKFEVER]

The site doesn't accept Paypal from oversea

How can I purchase th time from the site?

[BealeAss]

So 58 total items to dl including all the recalls and emission pieces correct?

[Lotus-Position]

Does anyone have section "JJ Brakes" they can send me? I apparently missed it when I originally downloaded last year.

TIA!

[Snowphun]

Has anyone compared this to the earlier euro version? I've had that for ages and don't want to bother collecting the Fed version if they are pretty much the same. Anyone interested in comparing?

Call your favorite dealer to purchase the hard copy of the manual. And I'm glad you are willing to pay -- as you will pay dearly for them.

The other option is to pay $25 to Lotus via the website, download the PDFs, have them printed and bound in green. You'll save about a bazzillion dollars doing it that way.

I almost purchased the hard copy until I opened it and saw that it just looked like the PDFs printed and bound with an enormous price tag placed on them.
