Book Description

0837601835 978-0837601830 March 1987 7th
In addition to comprehensive maintenance and repair on the 1.6 and 1.7 liter engines, there's a wealth of specific information on the bigger GTI 1.8 liter engine (which includes modified fuel injection, a special cylinder head, oversize valves, and much more), the Pickup Truck (which uses a different, leaf spring rear suspension), and the Convertible's top adjustment. Complete tune-up steps and emission control specifications for the fuel-injected and carbureted engines, including the electronic ignition systems found on many models, help ensure that your car will run at peak performance. There is also a comprehensive body repair section, with detailed body dimensions for the sedan, Cabriolet, Scirocco and Pickup. This Volkswagen Rabbit, Scirocco, Jetta service manual covers 1980, 1981, 1982, 1983, and 1984 models with gasoline engines. This manual includes both the American-made Rabbit and VW Pickup Truck, and the German-made Convertible, Jetta and Scirocco models built for sale in the United States and Canada

More About the Author

Since 1950, Bentley Publishers has helped professionals and do-it-yourself mechanics by publishing highly detailed automotive manuals and time-saving service guides. We started by reprinting and distributing hard-to-find British car manuals, such as Austin-Healey, MG, and Triumph. Today we offer a full line of technical automotive reference information for Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Volkswagen and many other vehicles.

Everything that goes into a Bentley manual - from developing the outline, tearing down a car, authoring the repair information, taking our own photography, to meticulously disassembling the vehicle (and putting it back together again!) - is done by our team of Technical Editors right here in our Cambridge, Massachusetts office.

In authoring our manuals, our approach has been to go for the details, resulting in books that may look intimidating, but are easy to use. More detail and less "averaging of facts" leads to less guess work when you are working on a car.

5.0 out of 5 stars Only the best, September 12, 2009
This review is from: Volkswagen Rabbit/Scirocco/Jetta Service Manual, 1980-1984: Including Pickup Truck, Convertible, and GTI (Robert Bentley Complete Service Manuals) (Paperback)
Bentley is the best for VWs. Has it all and still relatively easy to read and follow steps. Could have more and clearer pictures for us who need visuals.

This review is from: Volkswagen Rabbit/Scirocco/Jetta Service Manual, 1980-1984: Including Pickup Truck, Convertible, and GTI (Robert Bentley Complete Service Manuals) (Paperback)
I followed the constant advice to get the best book to work on the best car.

So Far I have not needed to use it but once for the wiring diagram to solve an install issue.

I probally will read closely through it next time I need to do some mechanical work to my car (i have already dismantled my engine once and rebuilt it, runs great)

Book is quality, lots of information, clean dialog, and has reliable photos of the real car.

Problem: This book focuses heavily on scirocco and I noticed has little room for the Rabbit.
Especially my special year model - 81.

Even it seems the sections I browsed through it gives priority to scirocco and jetta above the rabbit.

True though much of the cars are all the same it would be nice to recognize when it says "for 84 scirocco" it means "for 84 scirocco, jetta, and rabbit"
because sometimes it seems to leave out the fact the 3 or 4 cars are almost identical and sometimes they are uniquely different for certain year models.
