Certainly no one can blame you, since you were specifically asked for this info by 2 other users 
What is the PET 5? (I'm not familiar with the abreviation). And are the wiring diagrams better then those of the workshop manuals? (this is one point where the workshop manual is almost unusable)

I chose to buy the factory CD/DVD today to supplement what I already have, plus, I hope that it's easier to navigate with a traversable tree with bookmarks, as doing a search is a little clunky with Jim's, my only small complaint with them.

Hi Everyone,
Was just looking around Amazon and found they have a full set of manuals on CD-ROM from Porsche for only $29. Sounds like a sweet deal to me.
Here is the link:
http://www.amazon.com/1981-1994-PORS...7413217&sr=1-2
VTY,
Joe

Can anyone who already purchased this product tell us if it's something more then the microfiche scans?

Check out the image within the Amazon add as that does not look like a page from the WSM.
I wonder if they have Porsches blessing to be selling?

I plan on buying Jim's CD's and have planned on it for a while now. I have just wanted to see them in action before I buy. I've heard they are excellent. I'll put that on my list next time I'm down there.

Pic in auction definitelly isn't from factory WSM. Either its wrong or this is some unknown aftermarket set. My bet is its Jim's WSM scan they have copied like everyone else.

If this CD is a scanned copy of that manual, it's not worth a penny IMO.

Also, from the 'Product Features':
Complete genuine Porsche digital service repair manual specifically written for the 928 production model years: 1981- 1994.
High-definition, printable instructions and illustrations.
Print entire manual, or just the parts you need for your repair.
Original factory (not aftermarket) written manual covers all topics in detail with illustrations.
Covers Models: S, S4, GT & GTS Engine: 4.5L; 4.7L; 5.0L; 5.4L V8
If it is from Porsche, I would think it is well done.
