Hmmmmph...

Bentley does the factory manuals for Audi. They must have something in the contract that these American made manuals must be as obscure and poorly organized as any other German manual. In short, they are about the worst manuals I have ever seen.

Fortunately, the 944 is a fairly "generic" car in terms of its construction, and they are consequently fairly logical to work on. I can only hope that Bentley will do a better job this time.

Your results may vary.

Bentely is definitely better than Haynes. I've got one or me 89 325iS and it's awesome. The only problem I had with it was that it skipped some information on the oil pan removal. From what i've read, everybody seems to like bentely, your the first i've ever heard talk badly about them...

That would be fantastic. The Haynes manuals are sorely lacking in anything useful (it always says "take it to a professional or "installation is opposite of removal ). For some things it's okay I guess like basic maintenance, and the factory manuals are the original bible, but hopelessly dated now. A Bentley manual would be an excellent investment.
