hello all, i own a 99 v70 glt with 125000 miles. I am looking for a repair manual and cannot find one at the local auto parts stores. ive found a repair manual dvd on ebay, but i am somewhat reluctant to buy it. has anyone bought a dvd on ebay? any other ideas as to where i could find one? thank you

 

I bought my manuals online, paper copies. I got screwed by the dvd before. I'm sure there are good ones out there, but not with my luck.

 

Hi I'm new here, and I just got screwed on a s80 dvd manual. Does any one know of a reputable seller of s80 repair manuals?

 

Google 'Haynes auto repair manuals"!

 

+1 rowingman.

 

Purchased a Vadis DVD from Ebay as well. I wouldn't say screwed necessarily. It did work. Though the "repair" sections were rather weak. Nothing compared to my 200sx service manual. In fact it didn't even have schematics. Mostly part number searches was all it was good for. Not to mention the installation was crappy as it froze up half the time.

I will try Haynes. Thanks for the tip.

 

What! I went to Haynes site and they didn't even have V70 listed under Volvo repair manuals. Anyone know of an equivelant?

Not sure why this didn't show up on Haynes site.

I ordered online and received it within five days!

sorry jrt325m i did not see the s80 there

 

Found another site with info as well. They have to have something out there that is detailed like a factory service manual. I mean how else would the dealership troubleshoot an electrical circuit? Oh wait, I almost forgot, they just swap parts until it works then stick you with the bill for all these parts you never needed.

For those who purchased the Haynes manual, how are the electrical schematics?

 

The V70/S80 is one manual!

 

Thanks, but even when I click on the S80 section there are no available service manuals. Am I doing something wrong? This site is a bit wierd. You click on a link and then it says no parts available.

Are you suggesting to google S80 manuals instead of V70?

 

I see what you mean! I got my one sent from England which took five days! Try "www.Haynes.co.uk"!!

Thanks! I just purchased the same manual, but from here instead. It should arrive this week.
