Books : Honda Civic 2001-2004 & CR-V 2002-2004 (Hayne's Automotive Repair Manual)In association with Amazon.comRating:  - Skipmpy on detailsI was interested more in CR-V manual then Civic. This wasn't extremely helpful in my case. Hopefully book serves better for Civic owners. Rating:  - You could do it but still depending on your knowledge1. The price of this manual is reasonable. 2. Some out-of-date information about procedures and parts. 3. Too technical which is not suitable for car owner (who has little knowledge about car) to do maintenance trouble-free. 4. Car owner could do approximately 25% out of 100% procedures of the whole manual. Please remember it depends on your car knowledge. 5. Haynes publisher do not care to respond their customer's e-mail and phone call for asking more information in the book as they promised to do so. Rating:  - Haynes Auto Repair ManualThe Repair book tells you all you need to know about the car in an understandable way. Made replacing my head lights a lot easier. Rating: - Exactly the same as Chilton'sI purchased this book for information on changing brake pads for a 2001 Honda Civic DX. It has the information I was looking for. (NOTE: I haven't actually done the work yet so I can't comment on the quality of the information) At the same time I ordered the Chilton's Manual for my model thinking it would be good to have two different sources of information. Revieweing both books I found that the text and photos are exactly the same in both books. They must be published by the same company. So don't bother purchasing both. (NOTE: As a tribute, I am posting the exact same review for the Chilton's manual.) Rating: - If you have a car you must have this manualI always buy the repair manual for my cars, I like to know my car. |
