If you can wait, I will publish on the website:
- the Volvo documentation used in the garages
- a copy of "l'expert automobile" with everything concerning the B14 & B19
+ ...
I just need time to scan everything. The problem is that I'm very busy at this time

If your looking for a haynes, have a look on ebay. I bought
mine for 1£.
You'll find many and some in perfect conditions. It's an excellent working guide. sm19

manuals

Post by mgarageu » 07 Feb 2004 09:51 am

thanks! it is quite difficult. haynes was published in
two different editions: one covers the post-92 models, the other does not. i will prefer to buy a
new one, but i must know what i am buying. maybe someone in Europe is selling automotive
manuals buy some other publishers?

Hello
I'm new Volvo 340 DL '89 user. But I have one problem with this car, I didn't obtain any instructions for use or other books when I bought it. Especially it cares me on electric diagram, becouse I had looked for it everywere and I didn't find it. In my country also there aren't any book stores where I can buy that kind of stuff so that forum and You are last chance and place where I can find it.
Thanks
PS Sorry for my poor english :oops:

Mgarageu, sorry to be picky, but there are actually 3 haynes manuals for the 300 series, the earliest is blue, the next, brown and the most recent dark red! Lol
