Haynes Repair ManualsReviews of autofix.haynes.com

Only give 1 star as that's the only way to get to the review box. As everyone else says wish i had read the reviews. Not a patch on the old book type. Very basic information. Unable to log in and have now given up on it as Haynes seem to think it a problem at my end rather than their's. Waste of money

These manuals are a criminal rip off!! Having used many Haynes printed manuals in the past, I was expecting detailed step by step repair instructions with photos. There are none!! Nothing but generic vague single sentence instructions …eg; replace exhaust! Im contacting the company on Monday for a refund. If I don’t get it, I’ll be seeing them in court!

Basic, generic and hard to navigate. A waste of time and money.

Compared to the traditional BMW 3 series hard copy, the new 1 series Auto fix online manual is absolutely appalling. Very difficult to find actual useful information. I cannot believe Haynes have come to this. Why not sell the traditional style manual "on-line" as a PDF?

I looked for a Haynes manual for an Alfa Spider, needing to know how all the complicated roof mechanisms work. I ended up buying an auto fix "manual" for £28 thinking that I didn't need the physical manual, I could just see it online and print something if I needed it. Once into the system, I see that it is only basic stuff like changing a lightbulb, and checking oil levels. It does show how to top up the hydraulic oil level for the roof, but that's still pretty basic. There is more information in the user handbook that came with the car than in this useless software. Under the section "technical drawings" I thought that might yield diagrams I could follow, but all it had were three drawings of the seats, showing a full rear seat complete with headrests and a drop down section in the middle. Since the Spider is a two-seater, it doesn't even have a rear seat! It is basically useless, they are cashing in on the fact that we all used to use the Haynes manuals in the past and got on OK with them, but don't bother with the Autofix system.

Bought a Haynes online subscription thinking it’d be useful, but it was a complete letdown. The info was useless, and they used pictures of the wrong car! Total scam, honestly. Save your cash and skip this one.

I wish I'd read the reviews first. I found out the hard way it is a complete waste of money. I was looking for a wiring diagram so I could finish wiring up a towbar to my daughter's 2009 Mazda 3. It's just full of generic details that any competent DIYer would know anyway. The marketing hints at using extracts from the manufacturer's own workshop manuals. This is not the case

Absolutely terrible, not the same anymore....
