Car maintenance manual for 1978 vehicle

Product

I bought a car maintenance manual from Haynes for my 1978 vehicle, a Chevy El Camino. It had all the info I needed to keep my ride in top shape. From simple tasks to tricky repairs, it was a must-have for any car owner.

Maintenance and repair manual for a 2016 truck

Product

The manual I got for my 2016 truck maintenance and repair was bang on. It showed up real fast and is a solid and reliable source for all my DIY projects.

I bought this super helpful manual for an old engine

Product

This manual is amazing, eh? It's super organized and detailed. We had no clue how to rebuild this old engine, but with the manual, we totally aced it! Thanks a lot!

Repair manual purchase

Product

As someone who loves cars, I bought a Haynes repair manual to help me with fixing up my vehicle. But, gotta say, I was pretty let down by it. The layout was all over the place and hard to follow. The pictures were too dark and didn't really match up with the instructions, so it was tough to figure out what to do. I've used Chilton manuals before, and they're way easier to understand. So yeah, I wasn't impressed with the Haynes manual at all. Wouldn't suggest it to anyone else.

Recent book purchase

Product

I bought a book from this store the other day and honestly, I was pretty let down by how little info it had. It was super basic and didn't give me the breakdown of stuff like I was hoping for. Instead, it just kept telling me to go see a car service person for more help. Plus, the wiring diagram in the online version was terrible quality and impossible to read. All in all, I was not happy with what I got from the book and I felt like I wasted my money.

Ford Super Duty manual

Product

The manual I ordered showed up right on time, just like they said it would! It's been super helpful in saving me time and cash by letting me handle repairs on my own. It's also great for knowing when a repair might be too tough for me to handle and when it's best to let the pros take care of it. All in all, I'm happy with my purchase and think the manual is really handy for keeping my vehicle in tip-top shape.

Haynes manual

Product

I just got a Haynes manual online the other day. Was kinda bummed when I found out it was only available online, but overall, I was pretty happy with it. I'm a big fan of Haynes and Chilton manuals 'cause they give you all those detailed directions and cautions. Sometimes they might skip over some important stuff, but the torque specs for each section and the initial tool and troubleshooting guides really come in handy.

Car manual

Product

I was so disappointed with the car manual from Haynes because it lacked detailed info. It was frustrating not knowing the sizes of the fasteners, which made it hard to do repairs on my own. And always having to log in to their website whenever I needed the manual was such a hassle. It would definitely be better if they had a pdf version to download for quicker reference. Overall, I was not happy with the lack of detail and convenience from Haynes.

Manual for Japanese import vehicle

Product

I've been looking for a manual for my Japanese import car for so long. I thought I found what I needed at this place, but turns out they only had the manual for the American model. Like, come on, it can't be that difficult to have manuals for different models nowadays, right? I had to make do with the American manual, but man, the struggle is real.

Coloring book with small and blurry photos

Product

The colouring book is alright, but the pictures are way too tiny and fuzzy, which makes it a real struggle to see all the little bits. It's so irritating when you're all set to colour and then you can't even tell what's going on in the picture. Plus, the book just jumps from one thing to another without warning, and it's super confusing to keep up with the directions. I just wish it was more clear and organized, ya know? And don't even get me started on when it tells you to look in another part of the book, only to realize you were in the right spot all along! Ugh, seriously frustrating!

My cool new book for fixing cars

Product

I was pretty excited when I picked up my new book on fixing cars! I was debating between this one and another, but I'm really happy I chose this one. It's got everything I need, lots of pictures and diagrams. I got the online and book bundle, so I can also search things up on my phone. It's pretty awesome.

Manual transmission rebuild service manual

Product

I bought the manual transmission rebuild service manual for my 1994 Ford Ranger, thinking it would have all the details I needed to take apart and put back together my M5R1 transmission. Turns out, it didn't have the specific info I was looking for. I was pretty bummed out and wished I hadn't bought it in the first place. And to make things worse, I found a much cheaper option at my local library that had exactly what I needed for way less money. The lack of transparency in the manual's contents left me feeling frustrated and wishing I had done more research before buying. I hope the company can be clearer about what's inside their manuals to help customers like me make better choices.

Automotive repair manual

Product

I bought a car repair manual online not too long ago and I gotta say, the website was super easy to use. The search bar worked like a charm and I found the manual I was looking for in no time. Getting the physical copy in the mail was a nice surprise too. The manual is really detailed and has been so helpful with fixing up my car. I'm really happy with my purchase and would definitely suggest this manual to anyone looking for a good repair guide.

My latest purchase, always good

Product

I just got my new book and it's amazing! I love how easy it is to follow the instructions. The pictures are really helpful too. These books have been popular for ages, and I can totally see why!

Haynes book

Product

I just bought a Haynes book from your store and I gotta say, I'm super impressed with how quickly it arrived and that old-school classic book look that I've grown up with. It's been ages since I've seen these books on the shelves at a parts store, so it's awesome that they're still being made and I can get them straight from you guys. The book is chock full of useful info and step-by-step instructions, making it a must-have for any car lover or DIY mechanic. I'm really happy with my purchase and will definitely be telling others about this great automotive guide.

Good shop manual

Product

So I found this awesome shop manual that's actually super easy to understand. I attempted to use my old Honda one before, but it was way too confusing! The Haynes manual has really clear wiring diagrams that actually make it easy for me to follow circuits correctly. I've finally found the perfect manual and I'm sticking with it from now on!

Print and online manuals

Product

The manual I bought was exactly what I needed. I was happy to see that I could access it online right after I paid. The service was great, and I like that I can choose to use the manual in print or online.

Fresh print book for 86 MR2

Product

I was so happy to find the book I needed for my '86 MR2. It was awesome. I was hoping for a digital copy too, but no luck. I like having a physical book anyway, so the fresh print was just what I wanted. It came right on time and was in great shape. Overall, I had a good experience.

Vehicle repair manual

Product

I bought a repair manual for my car from this store, thinking it would assist me with a specific repair I had to do. Sadly, the manual gave me wrong instructions that ended up causing me over $4,000 in damages. I talked to my mechanic and he said that I did everything right, the problem was with the manual. It was an expensive error that could have been prevented if the manual had correct information. I must admit, I am really let down by the quality of the product.

Repair manual purchase for a 20-year-old vehicle

Product

I just bought a repair manual for my 20-year-old car from this place, and let me tell you, it's definitely worth it! The info in there is so valuable and has been a huge help in keeping my car in good shape. I feel really lucky to have come across this manual, especially for such an old car. On top of that, the shipping was quick and the price was fair. Big thanks to the team at this place!
