The Volvo 240 Service Manual: 1983-1993 is a comprehensive source of service information and specifications for Volvo 240 and other Volvo 200-series cars built from model years 1983 through 1993.

New durable hardcover format - This manual is now being published as a durable, long-lasting hardcover book designed to withstand frequent use in a professional shop or home garage. All of the content of the previous softcover edition is included.

Technical highlights:

  • Maintenance schedules and procedures for each maintenance task, from checking fluids to replacing the timing belt. This manual tells you what to do, how and when to do it, and why it's important.
  • Detailed, in-depth troubleshooting and repair for engine management and emission control systems: Bosch LH-Jetronic fuel injection, including LH 2.0, 2.2, 2.4 and new 3.1 versions; Bosch K-Jetronic (CI with Lambda) for turbo models; Breakerless electronic ignition, including Bosch EZ116 K and Volvo/Chrysler systems; Charge Air Pressure Control System (intercooled Turbo).
  • Automatic and manual transmissions, including overdrives, with comprehensive procedures and specifications for 4- and 5-speed manual transmission overhaul.
  • Illustrated, step-by-step repair procedures from adjusting valve clearances or replacing the heater blower to restoring suspension bushings or replacing the water pump.
  • Essential information on Volvo safety technology, including anti-lock brakes (ABS) and the airbag supplemental restraint system (SRS).
  • Electrical wiring diagrams with easy-to-use troubleshooting and circuit descriptions, including illustrated fuse, relay and component locations.
  • Plus the comprehensive factory tolerances, wear limits, adjustments and tightening torques that you've come to expect from Bentley manuals.

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 a must if you repair your own 240, December 24, 1998
This review is from: Volvo 240 Service Manual: 1983-1993 (Paperback)
This book is great - I have an 85 and a 93, and I learned much just sitting with it and reading. I will be much better prepared for whatever I need to do. It is well laid out, and the illustrations are very informative.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best Vovo 240 Manual, August 12, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Volvo 240 Service Manual: 1983-1993 (Paperback)
If you own a 240 Volvo and even if you don't do much of the work on it yourself, this manual is a must have. Complete and clear with very few errors, this will tell you more about your 240 and how to fix it than anything you can buy for under $50. The factory books may well be better but this is relatively inexpensive and will pay for itself with the first moderate repair. Don't waste your money on Chilton's junk ... this is the repair manaual you will want if you own and love a 240 "Brick". It is the best 240 repair manual I have used in 25 years of Volvo ownership. I've used it for everyhting from simple repairs like brake pads to replacing an automatic transmission. I have saved literally tens of thousands of dollars fixing my Bricks using this great manual! Also make sure you check out the Brickboard.com online for great advice from the national Volvo loving community. With this manual and the Brickboard advice you can literally fix anything on your 240 Volvo.

This review is from: Volvo 240 Service Manual: 1983-1993 (Paperback)
Bently is a thoroughly comprehensive manual with adequate illustrations. Highly recommend the Bently manual covering the Volvo 240. It was instrumental in my timing belt job.
