This is a general-purpose, well-written, easy-to-read workshop manual, especially suited to amateur mechanics. This is a how-to manual, not a reference book, with many photographs to aid the less-experienced.

Although a very useful manual, it has an inaccurate and misleading title. For example, it doesn't even mention the 1.4L Sentra engine, nor is it aware of right-hand drive models (used in Japan, Australia, New Zealand and the UK). An extension to the title of "for the USA and Canada" would make things clearer. Perhaps there is no 1.4L option in North America. As you've probably guessed, I have a 1.4L right-hand drive Sentra.

This manual is a general-purpose book, and skips some of the more complex procedures. For example, it completely ignores the maintenance and repair of the automatic transmission. It also neglects the interior trim and upholstery. On the positive side, it gives a complete, do-it-yourself guide to panelbeating.

Overall a good workshop manual for back yard mechanics. International shoppers need to be aware, though, that it is intended for the North American market.

Using this manual, I have r&r'd clutch, axles, timing chain, valvetrain, door hinges, oil pan gasket, chain tensioner, oil sending unit, water pump and many other maintenance repairs. Although the manual was useful, it was very clumsy to get around. You cannot reference a single repair without skipping around to 3 or more different chapters. Necessary details were often omitted, and special tools which are required to do the job are not listed. All though the manual was of assistance, I much preferred the Nissan Mfg. service manual.

It has helped my work on my 1993 Sentra many times. Very helpful although I feel they left out a lot of important information.

This book has helped me out a lot. It is truly something every car owner should have.

this manual was a great buy for 1.95 all the pages were in very good condition.
