They all purport to have the info for the P1, 2006 and later C70 but do not. It's all P80 1996-2005.

I was fortunate to get refunded by Alldata, found out from Chilton prior to ordering and am now dealing with 1000repairmanuals who show a pic of the correct car, claim to have all the information (12,500 pages in pdf) but it's all P80.

Curious, a response to my question asking if this were actually the P1 manual was answered immediately in the affirmative.

Response to my discovery that it is not, is not.

Caveat Emptor.

I would love to get a service manual on my clothes dryer!

The day is quickly coming where only the Brits will publish any manuals at all!

The reason why repair manuals don't exist for new products has to do with the way a technician is trained to perform a replacement or repair. They typically will have a laptop or tablet that has a smart query system where they input the problem into the software, and the software tells the tech what to look at, and steps the tech through the procedure.

I know this is the case because of a modern computerized washing machine we bought recently -- one the developed problems while under warranty. I watched as the tech consulted his lap top time and again, trying to determine the problem with our washing machine. Incidentally, he replaced major circuit boards, which still didn't correct the problem and finally they agreed to take it away and we bought a more traditional model with knobs you turn rather than having a computerized interface.

Anyway, no books anymore for the tech. It's all computer software.

They still make those?

I think that Maytag still sells the machine that we had for 40 years - Our new (six years old), front load Whirlpool that my appliance shop friend recommended does wash better.
