Haynes Repair ManualsReviews of autofix.haynes.com

Just bought a Jaguar XF manual for £26 only to find that it's missing basic information such as how to remove interior trim. Also, much of the content seems to be generic - for example, the section on removing liftgate struts basically just instructs the user to remove the clips from each end and pop the struts off. This can't be accurate as the vehicle has electrically actuated struts to open/close the liftgate.

Haynes Autofix is a total waste of money. Doesn't document or show anything specific to the vehicle. Gives a load of generic info but nothing specific to the vehicle. Videos and pictures are of completely different vehicles

Absolute Garbage. bought this online manual to help fault finding a brake light problem on my 2007 Honda CRV. It was of no help whatsoever. I typed in Brake lights into the search bar and nothing came up about brake lights, I eventually found a wiring diagram (part of the external lights wiring diagram) that was very hard to follow. The wiring diagram that was suppose to be specific to my model beared little resemblance to the actual wiring on the car. It was so wrong with bits missing, wires going to the wrong place and incorrectly labelled coloured wires. I emailed Haynes stating the manual was not fit for purpose and should be withdrawn from their website. I eventually managed to get a refund.

Signed up for Ducato manual ages ago. Tried to use it in anger this week. What an absolute waste of time. Not even the basic torque settings. It’s not a manual but a load of mixed up and mostly irrelevant data. Almost like it’s been compiled by a digital company that knows zero about repairing vehicles. Total Total Rip OFF. I’d also say that having your laptop under the van whilst working doesn’t really work either.

Very little information and way, way overpriced. Do yourself a favour and buy the hard copy. There are far too many missing, yet pretty important topics. Glad I read these reviews before making another purchase.

Well, let me start by saying: STOP! Don't make the purchase. Now then, I like others, I am sure expected a lighter version of AllData but what you receive is next to bloody useless, not even a complete list of Torque settings to list just one of many things not present, less specific car data to you than if you used YouTube and searched for Telly Tubbies, So if they don't have a traditional manual for your make & model steer well clear. Yes we can use Youtube for lots of guides these days, I know the world has changed but look at it this way, Pro mechanics don't, they use Pro tools and workshop hour programs, so Haynes wording is clever around AutoData and now I know why, sorry keen "DIYers" Please just stop selling it or charge £5 for the effort!!!

I was desperate and thought buying the haynes manual would be the guaranteed source to find where the crankshaft sensor is on my French pos c4 cactus. The manual cant even show me a picture of the engine But the online manual costing £29 tells you things like how to change a battery. No engine diagrams or breakdowns. It's riding on previous decades of reputation which was well earned and just cashed in and provide less information than halfords. The delete account option being with the subscription and other immediate tabs says it all. I also doubt the good reviews for their credibility because Heynes clearly don't do new cars and apparently people love the in depth manuals for their new cars... nope.

I feel that I have been conned out of £27.00. I had assumed that the digital information would be similar to the information contained in the books.How wrong can you be. The information is very scant , very few illustrations and very basic information.Far more help and information can be gained from the internet. I would advise anyone to steer clear of this set-up .Please do not waste your money
