I found a full set of my car's service manuals for only around $25 and the Haynes was under $10. I went ahead and got both because it's better that way in my opinion. The other car I'm thinking about getting is a '94 Grand Marquis and they have a set of those manuals for around $75 on eBay. I try to avoid pirated content and I think those PDFs on eBay are illegal, so I just hope that the cars I buy have cheap service manuals or I can use multiple other resources. My college has a database for automotive and it's not way too extensive but it's still free.
Hi Eric, I agree that every manual has it's place. I think manuals like Haynes are more of an overview of vehicle repair, so I'm glad I started out with a Haynes for my first new car: 1990 Pontiac Grand Am with the 2.3L Quad4. I had never done any type of maintenance on a car. Not even an oil change. I read all of chapter 1 in that manual and learned how to do all the scheduled/preventive maintenance on that car and then when the head gasket blew at 125K miles, I used that manual and only that manual to change the head gasket. I ended up junking that car at 348K miles, so Haynes did a good job covering the process of changing a head gasket on that car. I don't have the car anymore but I still have the book…lol. Fast forward 30 years and with all the experience I've gained in those years, I now prefer the FSMs. They're specific to your car but they don't give you the general knowledge a Haynes manual does. I don't know if I could've started doing my own auto repairs with the FSM.
The Haynes may not be as good but for me, it's way beyond the point of paying for it's self.
Just one example is it showed the engine block coolant drain plugs. I've never owned a sealed coolant system with no radiator cap before. Thought I was starting a 1hr job but was a nightmare till I got the Haynes the next day.
If it saves you from the cost of even one dealer repair then it pays for itself by a factor of X ( X = ALOT ).

Hi Eric i bought a pdf style manual too but it proved very cumbersome and pretty much so frustrating that I dumped it as it wasn’t searchable. Perhaps you could give a clue as to a good link?
Cheers

I have a Mercedes WIS and it takes a month to figure out, then the circuit diagrams are as you say, "Bits and pieces." I thought Mercedes would be better than most.
Just realised how much buying a Haynes manual online is a huge rip off, as you can only access your purchase for a year and then they have the cheek to offer you a discount to buy it again lol its like owning a paper copy and then they come and take it back after a year 😂😂😂😂😂😂
i remember how popular those Haynes books were back in the early to mid 90s it was like the playboy magazine section of all auto parts stores.😂😂😂
so where can i find the factory manuals on mine
