Books manuals

Post by what2do »

Has anyone read/perused the 'vw transporter workshop manual' by Brooklands books? Just wondering if it's worth having on the shelf. Cheers.

I have used Haynes T25 manuals & the Brooklands T4 Diesel manual. The Haynes manuals are far better than the Brooklands ones as they contain photos rather than drawings & have far more detailed information.

I don't find my brooklands manual very clear , the drawings are not that easy to make out when they are trying show lots of detail. I'm saving up for a Haynes manual to sit next to it.

Does anybody know anything about the 'Russek' manuals? One was recommended to me but the website doesn't appear to be listing one.
