Good day, do any of you who have a 1999 mci 102dl3 have a set of manuals on a thumb drive i can purchase. Looking for operating, maintenance and parts.
Thanks

Thanks, got the manuals coming from MCI and some parts as well. Was easy and painless to open a account and order the parts
Out of curiosity, what did you have to give for the full set of manuals? I'd very much like to get the hard copies.
Jim
Maitence manual was 250.00, operators manual 35.00 parts manual 450.00 canadian
Ouch, bit dear wasn't it. Might have to forgo the parts book. Thanks.
BTW, the maintenance book has a full set of schematics, yes?
Jim
As soon as i recieve them and have a look i will leave a review. I am going to see if i can find somewhere to put them on a usb stick
You need them all.
MCI spreads all the stuff you need to know thru them all.
Exploded parts view is mission critical for taking stuff apart.
No free lunch, and the oldest D are still commercially viable.
That means there's a customer to pass costs thru to... and they want their cut.
Happy coaching!

Hi guys, is the a 102C3 online version for parts and service? lvmci ...
Just got my manuals today, the maintenance manual is huge, covers D series buses, 4000-4505. They said it covers my 99 dl3 but not convinced. Should be getting my parts manual today, purchased the cd version for 35.00. They said at NFI parts that it also contains a service manual on the disc. Will report more later

Sold. I'll send you a PM later with my contact info. Thanks for making it available.
Sorry I missed out on that! But those parts manuals on CD sounds like a great idea. I've finally gotten back to the interior work a little bit, cut and shaped the second top stringer for the bulkheads, wedged it into place and braced it up, so given a week or so maybe it'll take a set. I'll pull the first one down, drill it and bolt it in sometime soon. Might be a bit longer before I get back on the tanks. Sometime towards the end of summer I have a trip planned to Louisville MCI to get a windshield, I'll ask about the books while I'm there. At this point I'm thinking maybe hard copy for the Operator's and Maintenance manuals and CD for the parts book.
Jim
If you have the spare time, you could print out a paper copy from the cd's. Them save cd's only when hard copy isn't available. I have a couple copies of my GM manuals. One is for use with dirty fingers.🤗
Just got the CD delivered to me. Greatest CD I have purchased. 35.00 and it has the operator manual, service manual, bullitens and a vary good parts manual. Worth the buy if you own a 102d or like mine a 102dl3

I do this any time I have to take our 4108 to the shop. I print out the section of the manual for the tech, since I assume that they won't have one in their library of manuals. Judging by the grease marks on the pages when I pick up the bus, they get used.
Too bad nobody has service bulletins, rpo listings and special parts lists for them for GMC's
I put my cd onto a couple thumb drives. Keep 1 in the shop and the other in the bus in case i need the info. Wife thinks im nuts for reading the manuals on our holiday this past weekend
Tell her it is your romance novel for/ about your coach.🤔
Trying to start trouble are you?
Jim
I downloaded the manuals off the MCI website and the one time I went looking for something, that section seemed to be missing.
I was trying to find the part number for the coolant filter and in the table of contents area is shows Section 6 to be for Cooling, with 6.08 to be for "Water Lines and Filter" .... but 6.08 was nowhere to be found. It jumps from 6.0604 to 6.0801 ... so either I'm just not using the manual correctly, or it is incomplete. I never could find the diagram showing the filter, nor any reference to it in the parts list. Someone else was able to come up with the part number, though.

Mike - Got the Detroit Diesel manual today. Wow, what a great addition to my library of manuals. Now I can finally see what the photos in the manual actually look like, as the scanned copy I had was nearly useless in that regard.
If anyone needs a specific page or section scanned in hi-res, just let me know.
Mike, I had the same problem. The schematics were truncated to the point where they just weren't very useful. Hopefully the CD is better.
Jim
I had my wiring diagrams expanded 300%. Sure makes tracing wires on the master diagam easier
The thing i dislike about the cd is the index is not vary good. Thats why i spend so much time reading it, getting familiar with were everything is.
