Book Reviews of Volkswagen Jetta, Golf, GTI: 1993-1999 Cabrio: 1995-2002 Service Manual
Book Review: Worth Every Penny
Summary: 5 Stars
I have only had the car (97 Cabrio) for a month. The car is for my teenage daughter, so I expect to be working on it a lot! The car had a few issues when we got it, and I've used the manual several times for diagnostics and repairs. I was impressed with the completeness of coverage and the level of detail. I thumbed through the Chiltons Repair Manual at the auto parts store before ordering the Bentley manual. For the particular item I was interested in Chiltons did not do a very good job of describing the procedure. So far I've taken off door panels, replaced a cloudy headlight unit, done a tune up and realized I didn't want to try to replace an ignition switch. I am not a mechanic, but I do enjoy working on cars. I would consider myself mechanically inclined, but not a mechanic. This book was worth the $$.Book Review: Great Service Manual
Summary: 5 Stars
I just received the Volkswagen Jetta, Golf, GTI, Cabrio Service Manual 1993-1999 Service Manual. It is the latest publication.
Volkswagen - Jetta, Golf, GTI: 1993-1999 - Cabrio: 1995-2002 Service Manual -
The one pictured on Amazon is the old publication, but I received the newest publication even though Amazon shows only the first 1999 publication - Very happy
Thanks Amazon
Book Review: Save a ton of money!
Summary: 5 Stars
Just purchased this book and WOW! Incredible detail and clear diagrams and explaniations. Everything from torque specs (in Nm and ft.lb)to suggestions on when you might be in over your head. Not a clue as to why such negative reviews. Maybe if you need someone to hold your hand while you turn a wrench, you should stick to a Haynes manual.
But if you really want to know what makes a VW tick Bentleys do it best. Well worth the money especially when you start in on some more in depth repairs. Can't say enough good about it.
Book Review: 1999 Cabrio
Summary: 3 Stars
Like the Haynes manual this book also does not cover the later 1999 Cabrio models.The engine is simalar but the interior, lighting and more are all very different, this is mainly because there was a big mid-year change but they are all 1999 models.
Book Review: The Bible for VW Maintenance and Repairs
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is the bible for third generation Jetta, Golf and Cabrio maintenance and repairs. With hundreds of pages covering a wide variety of topics, it is definitely well worth the money. It has already saved me big $$$ since I got it. If you use this manual and buy your parts online (from auction sites for example), I'm sure that you will be able to save a lot of money as well!
