Useful but not sure entirely legal.

Someone has spent a while on their scanner...

[Wobbly Dave]

And it hasn't been shut down. If you click on different Volvo models some have wiring diagrams.

Paynes manual summed up and edited............Disconnect battery and place on axle stands. For anything involved..ie not a light bulb replacement,book into main stealer. It's a very expensive comic book and a very poor one at that. Anything anyone needs to know can be found on here....

Anyone think Alan's got a downer on the good ole haynes manual? ;) lol

[Dangerous Dave]

Hmmm, I don't really trust Haynes, as their description for compressing a spring (or something like that) on my dads old Rover was "get 4 large persons to sit on the front end of the car and install spring clamps". Ah the good old days of bodging it.

they are ****e, i remember the electric window switch falling thru the handbrake console on my cheesewedge (Volvo 480). The Heinz manual said to remove the handbrake lever to remove the panel to refit the switch, it turned out Volvo had notched the panel & the handbrake lever only needed to be released & the panel slide over the top. Such a simple mistake yet could of cost atleast an extra couple of hours if i'd of followed what they said. Its also no help in telling me how to remove the rear bumper of my 850 as they used a pre-facelift 1994 model which is totally different

I remember buying a Haynes for my first V6 Sierra. Was a complete nut and bolt strip-down and re-assembly...brilliant. Today it's as much use as a loud speaker in outer space......

I agree to a large extent - the manuals made upto the early/mid 90s were written entirely on the strip down of the car concerned - later ones used a lot of 'library' material - just look at the photos in some of them - they show a Peugeot 306 ! The overall quality is lower too - less detail, some glaring mistakes (which is worrying), and a lot less content. Plus they're now expensive.

On the plus side, some items can be useful, such as seeing how various fasteners are attached - they're easy to snap when removing, and they cost a lot to replace...
