Hi to all V70 & S80 owners

There is FINALLY a Haynes repair manual or maybe I've just been in the dark and didn't know it existed. But anyway it covers the years from 2000 to April of 2004 for the V70 and 1998 to 2005 for the S80. It's Haynes #4263. I had to order it from England and it took two weeks to come but it came today. If you do a Google search using "ISBN: 9781844252633" you should find it. It is also listed under the older book number system as "1844252639" same book just the older way of listing. Cost in the low to mid 30's with shipping and handling to the US.

Thanks to all for your great post on V70's you've been great and hope you enjoy the new Haynes manual.

PS. If you have trouble finding it check out GetTextbooks.com and do the search using "ISBN: 9781844252633" they had a number of listings for it.

I looked around the internet for this book...looks like although it says it covers the S80 it doesn't appear to cover the 2.8 turbo or 2.9 non-turbo 6 cylinder engines, only 5 cylinder gas and diesel engines.

See below description that I found on the www.dmldirect.com website. Can you confirm if it does or does not cover the 6 cyl. engines? Many thanks!!!

Hi G Squared

I checked the manual and that is correct. It does NOT cover the 2.8 liter or the 2.9 liter gasoline V6 engines nor the 2.5 diesel engines. As far as price you might check out this web site.

http://www.abebooks.com/servlet/BookDetailsPL?bi=807297182&AID=9836638&PID=1408513

It list the book for $27.13 plus shipping of $6.17 to US.

I got mine through Amazon.Ca but it's no longer listed.
Hope this helps,

Funny how it does not apply to the "V"-6.
