seeking repair manual 05 Matrix...

[herbeapuce]

Hi. I am looking at ebay for a repair manual for a matrix 05. there are quite a few there. do you know of the better ones? any experience with .pdf or cd manual from ebay ?
they are cheap but are they any good. how do they compare to the Haynes manyals?

I guess the question is which one is the best to get ?

TIA

The ebay CD manuals for around 10 bucks are the same as this free link: http://madstyle1972.com/Repair/

I have the Haynes and like it. If that link doesnt do it for you, I would get the Haynes.

I will study your link, then make my choice for a Haynes or not...)

Glad to help. I feel Hayes is more for the shade tree mechanic, the link/CD/pdf is more for a toyota mechanic, but can be helpful.

Note that the link is for the 2003 Matrix. The main difference is the throttle. The '05 has throttle-by-wire IIRC.
