Service Manual Rip-Off?
Service Manual Rip-Off?
Im trying to get a set of the Honda service manuals for my 2008 EX Coupe, including the ETM. I'd much prefer if it was on a CD as well.
They're usually around $50/ea or aorund $150 for all three.
I've come across this website
http://www.autorepairmanuals.biz/product/BISH-5654
which is apparently selling all three manuals on a CD for $36.29.
Is it really that much cheaper because its on a CD and not printed? Or is this some kind of rip off?
Has anyone ordered from here before?
Furthermore, is there a benefit to using the $150 service manuals over the free online manual here http://civic.hondafitjazz.com/manual2.html ?

Re: Service Manual Rip-Off?
That is about what I paid for the same 8th gen manuals CD.
It is searchable..... BUT you cannot use a PDF printer on the file I've found.
This file may be different.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one
