Has anyone had any success with this repair manual?

Seems to be a good offer if true. Has good feedback and sold a few by now.
Was wondering if any of you had tried it?

Skip. Buy a Bentley manual. Bentley is the real manual.

Always be wary if they leave out important details. Who is the publisher? I bet it's Mitchell, which is...ok, but not the Bentley.

They say that it is not Haynes, Mitchell or Bentley, but then says that you get what you pay for? That is pretty funny. No guarantees. If you have problems then email them. Win2k and XP only, but will work with others?

Read his feedback. One says that you have to reset the clock on the pc. Here is another one from an S4 owner:

Negative feedback "ad states EVERY WIRING DIAGRAM. Had NO DIAGRAMS for my S4. did refund money."

Old car phased out. Refund given properly. Buyer complete waste of time.

Note that the seller did refund the money, so that is good.

I actually already have the Bentley but

it often crash on me and I reinstall my laptop (T60p) more than once a year (work related) and Bentley have told me that I can only do that once a year.
Was looking for something that could be transfered several times -but of course it still have to have the model and of course work!!

I have the Bentley DVD manual, too, but it's on one of my notebooks that recently crashed. I purchased a DVD from the referenced eBay store; the one I bought for my 2005 Ford Excursion and F350 (it has all of the data for every Ford model within a particular year's production run) is a little tricky (the clock/date thing), but it has had all of the information. I believe it's a knock-off, and the DVD label IS cheesy, but it works. I've sent mine to a friend at the FBI to see what kind of fun they can have with it....

TrdLtly - sweet ride and nice mods, but my 2.7T is "GIAC'd"? ;-)
