i just purchased a 2000 s70 for my wife, and we just love the car. all my life no matter what kind of vehical i've owend, i've always bought a new repair [service] manual, for obvious reasons, and now i'm finding this to be impossible. is this true ?

 

I have heard of people purchasing a Haynes manual. Also, you can get a manual on cd/dvd to fix your car. Most people do that.

 

Haynes manual #4263 is for the 2000 V70, so most of it should apply to the S70. You should be able to find a copy somewhere on the web.
