Haynes for Porsche

Vehicles may have changed beyond recognition since the first manual was created in the mid-1960s, but the same painstakingly detailed approach to producing accurate and trustworthy Porsche repair advice has not. Each car, is stripped down and rebuilt, capturing every important step-by-step task along the way. DIY friendly techniques and tools have enabled millions of people to safely and successfully maintain and repair their vehicle.A common question of today’s cars and trucks is whether they have become too complex for home mechanics. In actual fact, most tasks are easier than they have ever been, with only advanced electronic systems being “out of reach”.

• Confirm the book’s coverage matches your exact Porsche model, year and engine, and whether it is a workshop guide, parts reference, buyer’s guide or history title.
• Check language, edition and whether wiring diagrams and torque settings are included if you plan to carry out your own maintenance.
