Haynes Manuals for 1.7 diesel

Post by Si_P »

Having just picked up my camper it has now (obviously) developed a small oil leak....

I'm in the process of tracking this down. (Looks like it's coming from either the sump gasket or the connection between the oil filler pipe and the sump.

However, I cannot find a Haynes manual for my model?

Do they exist?

If so where can I get one?

Cheers

The Haynes 3452 manual only covers petrol models, but it's useful for all except the engine. JK do a manual for the diesel. It's not brilliant but I use it for what the Haynes don't cover.

So I think you'll need both.
1.9D (AEF) pop-top. Aaaaahhhhh........that's better.

I have found what alleges to be the official workshop manual for £4.

The download process is very tortuous I will report back when I have viewed my purchase

It the same engine as the 1.6 except with 1.9 width pistons and piston oilers.

Cheers.

Stupidly I was getting confused by the engine diagrams (in which the engine is not cranked over)
