This review is from: Mitsubishi Galant, Mirage, and Diamante, 1990-00 (Chilton's Total Car Care Repair Manual) (Paperback)

I returned this book after reviewing it briefly. I have used other books from Chiltons that I have found useful. I am a picture/symbol oriented person when it comes to auto repairs. I am a DIY guy, not a mechanic, so I need to see how it looks in the manual. The schmatics/diagrams/pictures in this manual are 1.5" x 1.5". At this size they are totally useless. I cannot even compare this manual to the Chilton's I use to repair my '93 Plymouth minivan. It's like they were written by two diffent publishers.

This review is from: Mitsubishi Galant, Mirage, and Diamante, 1990-00 (Chilton's Total Car Care Repair Manual) (Paperback)

I'm gonna be blunt and to the point: How the **** do they expect people to figure out how to do something on a specific car model when the book covers THREE different vehicles, with an average of THREE different Generations within the 1990-2000 year range?

For example, the Mirage is split up into three different generations in this 10 year span. 3rd Generation (3G) is 1988-1992, 4G is 1993-1996 and 5G is 1997-2001. Also, with each generation, there are two different body styles, the sedan (95 Mirage=95 JDM Lancer, 97 Mirage=96 JDM Lancer, etc) and the coupe and hatchback (3G was hatch, same as Jap Mirage, 4G coupe is a JDM 4G hatch with body made into a coupe).

Also, would this cover the Dodge/Plymouth Colt and Eagle Summit cars imported by GM in 1993? Those have a rear wheel disc option not available on the Mirage. Does it also cover the 4-door Summit that uses the same body as the 4G Mirage? The answer is NO.

If you're serious about wrenching on a Mirage, head over to www.mirageforums.net. There, you'll find most anything about a Mirage, ranging from fixing things to body kits to tuning and performance info. A MUCH more informative resource than this book.

How can one book cover three different cars from yrs 90-00? I don't know! I would not recommend anyone to buy this book unless you already know alot about Mitsubishi Motors.
