That's the gist of it. The BGB is a wealth of information, so buying a 
copy, actually broken into two books, one for the engine and one for the 
chassis, is IMO a necessity. You need RM285U1 for the engine and RM308U2 
for chassis, body and electrical. In addition, a separate electrical 
manual is available, EWD144U.
