agreed, the mk4 haynes was superb and it didn't cover my engine. everything else must be almost identical so it's useful for 90% of stuff....

Got mine about 2 weeks ago.

Oil and Inspection service guide (step by step).
Engine (Petrol / Diesel)
Heating / AC
Bodywork (Int/Ext)
Electrical
Plus many more sections pretty much a full disassembly guide.

Very good, helps knowing what part is held on with before ripping it off.

:D

Got one about a week ago. Its not too bad, but the info on the types of oil isn't that great as on the fixed service interval it doesn't tell you to use the correct PD Diesel oil , only (multigrade to SG/CD spec).. :shock:
Fair bit of useful info in there. But I did notice that for the diesels there were a few pics of the Fabia engine bay.. :) .. Its still the same though..

Agree with Buzby. Generally OK. Some useful info, some not so useful (for those who are NEVER going to dismantle their engines :roll: ) and some info missing. E.g. I would have liked to have seen more trouble shooting tips; known common problems and their solutions -- that way some of the "dismantling" guides can be put into context.
