Customer Reviews

It's a good book for the DIY'er
I bought this book knowing full well what year it was for, unlike another reviewer that appears to not know anything about cars. It's a good book for minor to somewhat complex repairs for the Passat and A4. It's not like a Bentley manual, but it's better than nothing, and I really don't want to pay this much for a repair book. I highly recommend this manual for the owners of these cars.

Good for new do-it-yourself mechanic
The book explains pretty simple car repair jobs and includes some indepth types of repair. It has some pictures, but they might use one picture for 4 different types of repair. If you are just wondering how to preform basic car maintenance this book is for you.

Could be a lot better
The book is ok as a rough guide/what to look out
but for something simple e.g. instructions for simple
change of a front headlamp the book indicated total removal
of the headlamp unit on my '98 A4. Fortunately I
remembered to the dealership service advice that
I simply had to pop off a plastic cap behind the
headlamp, undo a clip, unplug the old bulb and replace
it - took less than 5 minutes - good thing I did not
follow the book!
Overpriced too.
