Product Description

Using a Haynes manual is like having a mechanic in every book. Our mechanics and writers work together on the project vehicle to arrive at the best possible procedures for the home mechanic and then photograph the actual work and write instructions so the non-professional can easily make the repair.

It's got home mechanic information about civics, but I wish the descriptions and the instructions had more detail. It needs better pictures too.

2 out of 5 stars very frustrating.......2006-07-09

Disappointed with this & all Chilton car books. If you are a complete beginner , the explanations & pictures are not clear enough to make you feel comfortable.
The descriptions are not clear & there is a need for a lot more & a lot clearer batch of pictures.
They may work for you if you have some car knowledge but take time to read through them before you buy.
I do not feel that I got my monies worth & wish that I had looked at other options.

This book has saved me $$$ many times. Although it is not in depth as a Factory service manual. It is money well spent!

2 out of 5 stars Chilton's Honda Civic and Del Sol 1996-00 Repair Manual.......2001-10-21

Adequate for simple repairs and a general understanding of the cars covered, Chilton manuals are a cheap alternative to buying the "real" shop manual. Unfortunately, for whatever the reason, they are fraught with errors and omissions. Wiring diagrams may not be correct, and often simple step by step instructions are unclear. I have had Chilton's manuals for several of the many cars that I have owned and I often swear at them more than I swear by them.

2 out of 5 stars Review of Chilton's VW-Golf/Jetta/Cabriolet 1990-98 repair manual.......2007-06-10

I bought this hoping that I would find enough information to repair a problem with a 98 Jetta. It's always a crapshoot with Chilton's - I was able to fox a 98 Jeep Cherokee with another Chilton's manual I had purchased for that car.

I lost this time. The manual lacks in detail - the many sensors the car has are mentioned, but never described. There was no troubleshooting information for any of the sensors I was looking for. There is only basic coverage of the fuel injection system. I was able to find more on Google than in this book.

A waste of money for me. your mileage may vary.

1 out of 5 stars Chilton's Manuals are genrally better than this..........2004-08-03

I have bought 3-4 Chilton's manuals for my Hondas over the years and was very impressed with them. This Chilton for our VW Cabrio was VERY poor. Luckily I bought mine used for $7. Manual gives ALOT of general information, little of specific to the Cabrio or Volkswagen. No relay layout and no specific cruise control information at all - two specific points of interest for me right now. This book will walk you through general topics like timing belts, brakes, and oil changes.

Where my Honda Chilton manuals were printed on newspaper thin paper to cram as much information as possible into 1 book, this one is printed on normal paper and is thinner than the Honda manuals. Book fails to address hardly any of the Cabrio specific items such as convertible top care, and top replacement.

Do yourself a favor, gather your courage and money and spend the $50 or so on the Bentley manual. You will be much happier with it. Anybody want a Chilton's manual for cheap?

1 out of 5 stars Incomplete and contradictory.......2004-01-25

This is a poor manual. In many cases, the instructions given even on basic repairs are incomplete (torque specifications missing, for example). It also contradicts itself - the text will say one thing, and the captions on the pictures say the opposite. For example, the instructions for replacing the air filter say that you don't need to disconnect any hoses or wires from the housing in order to remove the housing, but the pictures show you exactly what hoses and wires to remove. Regardless, I was unable to get the air filter housing open at all with these directions; I'm by no means a mechanic, but I think I should be able to change an air filter with a well-written repair manual. Also, the information about the rear washer system isn't detailed enough - I can't find the rear washer reservoir where this book says it is. Perhaps they left out some Golf-specific details and the description of this system only applies to the more-popular Jetta? Hopefully I'll find out soon, because I've returned this book and ordered the Bentley manual, which costs three times as much but will hopefully be complete and consistent.

1 out of 5 stars Haynes repair manual.......2003-09-06

This book is not up to the standards of any other Haynes book I've ever owned. It is more like the Chilton manuals-poorly illustrated- that created a market for the Haynes manuals in the beginning.

1 out of 5 stars Does Not Cover all 1999 Models.......2001-12-10

Potential buyers should take note that this book does not really cover most VW's that were produced in 1999. It covers only those on the A3 frame, not the A4. The A3 frame was used briefly in 1999 and replaced in 1999 with the A4. VW refers to them both as 1999 models.

4 out of 5 stars Chilton's Jeep CJ/Scrambler 1971-86 Repair Manual.......2001-07-08

As always, Chiltons manuals are one of the best for reference to a vehicle. They are usually on the mark for information and "how to" things. This particular manual is a little weak on the V-8 304 CID engine and I believe that there are mis-prints throughout on the numbering and figures that are drawn out. The electrical diagrams are the best there are but I think that the identifying the part that you are looking at could use a little more detail. All in all, the Chiltons repair manuals remain the best.

5 out of 5 stars a good book.......2000-07-25

A very comprehensive manual. I have worked on my various Jeeps dozens of times and have found this manual to be indespensible. Based on a complete tear down and reassembly of the Jeep vehicles that are discussed. An invaluable resource. Although I can buy it considerably cheaper down at the local parts store.

I purchased this book to repair my A/C condenser that's located inside the car under the dash. There were no instruction at all to even try to attempt this project. I was very disapointed due to that lack of information not published.

2 out of 5 stars buy a factory service manual.......2003-11-10

A serious do-it-yourselfer better buy a factory service manual for his/her specific vehicle from Chrysler. It costs $90, however, non-factory service manual is a waste of money for most of buyers. You just don't find information that you need to repair your vehicle.

1 out of 5 stars Garbage, inaccurate, incomplete, misleading.......2003-09-02

This book is garbage, innacurate and misleading. Like frustration-then buy it. A jeep mechanic told me this book was a great source of customers for him. The Haynes book is no better. These companies just copy errors and inaccuracies from each other.
Another experienced mechanic called it propoganda, just enough truth so people can't tell what is lies. Maximum frustration. Example- just try to replace a front axle u joint using this books method. Their method works only on new cars. You won't be doing work on new under warranty cars. 5 year old cars rust. The Chilton new car methods in this book just don't work. This book will make you think repairs are simple, until you get half way into it and it just does not work.

4 out of 5 stars RE-build it yourself!.......2003-08-07

Typical Chilton book, tells you everything about the car you could possibly want to know except the thing you're looking for. I recently bought an old (1988) Jeep Comanche; wanted to replace the speedometer cable...using this book I could replace the transmission, overhaul the engine, re-build the differential, but no where could I find any info on the speedometer. Line drawings are crude and difficult to interpret, photos are worse. The text is good and gives adequate instructions. When I go to grind the valves, I'll know how!

i brought this manual to repair my 93 accord, and there's too much stuff about preludes and old accords. A useful book, but take much models for a short book. A bigger book should solve it, with more photos.

1 out of 5 stars Useless.......2005-10-02

Do not buy this book. It has absolutely no detail and states only what you can already figure out using common sense. I wanted help replacing the carburetor on my 1989 Honda Accord. The book says to remove hoses, connections and loosen the mounting nuts and lift out the carburetor and then install the new carburetor the same way the old one was installed---that's it. No help with hose diagrams or information about how to disconnect or reconnect anything. Also, the carburetor won't just lift out---it is necessary to loosen the manifold to get the thing out. The book doesn't even mention that. As I said, the book is useless. I wouldn't have given it even one star, but I had no choice.

1 out of 5 stars awful.......2002-07-30

confusing, no detail.... You cannot wirte a 276 pg book for 10 years worth of 2 different cars... There are no pictures and often little detail on what you are supposed to be looking at... Maybe a good, i mena good mechanic could use this book, but no one else...

3 out of 5 stars Chilton book just O.K........2004-04-11

I have just started doing multiple maintainance projects on a 94 coupe. Chilton helps but since the book spans the complete C-4 generation it can be confusing depending on which engine you have. There is a critical error on spark plug gap. The books gives .035 for all years. The later models take a .050 gap. Double check your year before install. It is difficult to get the plugs in, you don,t want to do it twice. The graphics in the book are not great and the black and white pictures seem hard to see in some cases.

1 out of 5 stars for the arm chair mechanic only!.......2000-05-09

While this book gives overall information, it is lacking much of what is needed by the wrench that is doing the hands on repairs. If someone else is doing the work and you want to know what is being done then this book will suffice.

5 out of 5 stars KEEPING IT SIMPLE.......2000-04-18

To ALL Corvette weekend warriors: This keeps tinkering simple! Chilton has done it again. Typical "shop" manuals are over $100.......Have "practical" knowledge for under $20!

4 out of 5 stars Great tool for anyone.......2005-07-27

This guide offers great detail of just anything you'd want to do. I own a 240sx and some things were missed in the book it is otherwise a great tool that I check before anything I do.

1 out of 5 stars Very poor book........2002-11-23

I bought this book as a cheap alternative to the factory service manual. I tried to find a Haynes manual, but they don't seem to have one for a 240SX. This manual is pretty useless. It tries to cover too many models and too many years, and just ends up leaving out most of the information that you will need. The only wiring diagrams are for the lights and ignition system. I am trying to install a stereo and fix my power door locks, but there are no diagrams...

1 out of 5 stars don't do it!.......2002-05-26

Hold out for the offical Nissan Service Manual. I bought this for my 1990 240SX, but this book is worthless. It trys to cover to many different models (Stanza, 200SX, 240SX) and years (10!) that it does not give any specific detail to any particular vehicle. It really is not worth your time.

3 out of 5 stars Chilton's Nissan Stanza, etc.......2001-03-14

We bought this book because we wanted a teardown manual. This book does not have the specs needed to repair a fuel injector and other things. Very disappointed. Wish Haynes had a teardown book for my 1992 Nissan Stanza, but they don't. We will now have to buy the service manual from the Nissan dealer, which they say is $75. Might as well forego this book and buy from the dealer and save your money.

1 out of 5 stars Poorly assembled collection of instructions.......2001-01-25

Too many models covered and not enough details for each car/procedure. Instructions for very specific procedures often have no pictures. If I knew what they were refering to, I might be able to follow the instructions. This book assumes a level of knowledge that would negate the need for this book. I found it a waste of money.

2 out of 5 stars subaru legacy&forester chilton's.......2007-06-01

this manual is nothing more than a haynes with different covers! shame on you people!!!! why can't the repair car manual producers create a decent manual!!!

5 out of 5 stars Its a Chilton..........2007-03-12

Pros: This manual can show you how to do just about anything in a fast\easy manner for your Subaru. Used it recently to learn all the tricks for changing headlight bulbs, took me a matter of minutes.
Cons: I have a 2000 and didn't like waiting so long for this manual to be released, I blame Subaru for making 6 years of similar cars, not Chilton.
