Damn! I dosen't cover the D5 engine :-(

You will find the V70 2001+ Haynes covers the D5 163bhp engine..after reading through it i found it to be pretty useless..thankfully the book was donated to be by Ben77 otherwise it would have been a complete waste of money..just covers the very basic topics and electric diagrams are not even for the right car and labelled "typical wiring"

That has to be Haynes worst attempt yet.

Engines covered: 1.8, 2.0, 2.4, 2.0D
Not covered: 1.6, 1.6D, 1.8F, T5, T5AWD, D5

I accept that most cars sold in the UK are probably in the covered range but given these engines exist in many other cars how much extra effort would have been needed to cover some of the rest? I've had manuals for VW's, Audi's and Renault's in the past and all have had far more comprehensive engine range cover than that.

I don't think I'd bother parting with £19 for that.

Vadis is now obsolete (since 2006 I think). The current software is called VIDA.
