Featured Replies

taking off the exterior trim, front grills, rear valance fog surrounds and mirror arms.

would usually go and learn along the way by tugging away at things but i haven't got time to get out to the car these days. can anyone help?



Well luckily for you (but not me!) my home internet is down at the moment so I'm typing this to you from the library! So I'll have a search and see if there is a manual released yet for the MK7 (?)

Doesn't ETIS have all the info you need?

I think the market for Haynes manuals is dying out - there's less and less you can do on modern cars without specialist tools, software etc that a DIYer can't justify. And all the manufacturers now have to publish their workshop manuals online (like ETIS) for the independent garages to comply with EU competition regs.

Not very helpful but i dreamt i had one last night!

if it happens again i will attempt to find the pages you need!!

hahaha

Yeah i understand, but do you have to sign up as a business and pay to access the stuff on etis?

I'm having a look on there and I can't seem to access any instructions of sorts.

lol

no, it didn't help much.

Sorry, nothing. Looks like Haynes have to wait a while before doing a book, as they base the facts on stripping a whole car down, so they have to wait till the prices go down I guess before buying a brand new MK7 and taking it to bits!! :lol:
