Hi there, I'm thinking about buying an 850 wagon. I was wondering if there are any online repair manuals available. I know there's lots of great forums available.

 

Depending on you model year this page has extremely useful service docs They have very detailed troubleshooting procedures for a lot of things but can be a little short on instructions for removal and installation and no real pictures. These docs state that they're for 1995 850s but I have found my '94 is pretty much like the '95s. If yours is '96 or newer some of the engine control may be different (someone correct me here) like no air pump or EGR.

I used those service documents along with my Haynes manual to fix just about everything that was wrong with my 850 when I got her. And this forum has been great for learning tips and tricks on some of the repair procedures as well as product reviews and ideas for upgrades.

 

If you are able to download torrents, there are a few Hayes manuals on line. You can either go on thepiratebay.org or torrent-finder.com

 

This will get you a complete service manual for a '95. It is 99% compatible with other years.
