haynes pt cruiser repair manual,
By
This review is from: Chrysler PT Cruiser 2001-2003 (Haynes Manuals) (Paperback)
i am 32 and have purchased a haynes manual for every car i've ever owned, (roughly 10). as far as i'm concerned, this one seemed to have the most missing information.. as far as specific instructions for the different model types (manual, auto, turbo, non-turbo. 2,5L..?) the instructions and component placement seem to vary greatly depending on which model you have. its not clearly mentioned in this manual though. fortunately i have enough experience in auto repair to figure some things out on my own. there are certainly some missing steps in various procedures (never tells you to take the wheel hub nut off to get the wheel hub off.. but i guess thats obvious..?) i've always found the haynes manuals difficult to determine which part is what from the description (detach the left lateral drive coupler from the auxiliary front coupling rod.. ok, sure??) there were a number of places where it just says "this is too complicated for a DIYer to troubleshoot on their own, please take it to an experienced mechanic.." i really hate that.. some DIYers are more experienced than others. anyway, i will still continue to purchase these manuals for all future cars since they are the most accessible and inexpensive, but they could use some more thought, especially for inexperienced DIY's, and this particular manual is the one that bothered me enough to actually write a review on it..

Not as good as they used to be,

I used this manual for a clutch replacement and suspension upgrade and found it to be much less helpful than the older Haynes manuals were. This manual constantly sent me searching through other chapters for information. Many steps were oversimplified and lacked details regarding special tools and methods required.

This review is from: Chrysler PT Cruiser 2001-2003 (Haynes Manuals) (Paperback)
When I had to pull the head off my vehicle, I knew I didn't know too much about this engine and I would have to have some type of help. Although this manual doesn't have every thing, it had enough information for me to do the job right. I recommend this item, but if you don't work on your vehicle yourself often..I'd take it to a mechanic...a good mechanic.
