Manuals
-
mornin all:) … kinda lookin 4 a manual on the 1991 1.8 v6 model . tried a few places but they tellin me ther isnt 1. any help wud b mostly appreciated :)
-
You need to search for the Chilton manual mate, it's the only one I know of! Haynes never did one but the Chilton is 'Haynes Approved'.. you can find them on eBay or Amazon!
-
dudes. might be able to help with the manual thingy in about two weeks. a mate of mine should be getting one of the offical mazda repair guides. that they actually uses at their service centres. depending on how much i have to pay for this and if i can copy it to other cd's i should be putting them on ebay. for a small fee.
following this will see if there is any way i can post it somewhere on net requiring password to get it for us lot on uk-mx3( sod the yanks) lol
-
:D good stuff troops.. u wer right about amazon. ill wait n c if these cd`s get up n runin 1st tho lol… thanks 4 the help. its strange that haynes dont do the manual tho dont ya think. i was in halfords and they hadnt a baldy... they told me that i should contact mazda lol... eejits. neways ta u lot :)
-
i wont know about for theses cd's for two week till i get home from uni for easter. but will let you know as soon as i find out.
however somewhere on here there was a pdf posted.it was a manual of some sort sort. that appears to be scanned in to pc.

I'm pretty sure that the one they use at the garages is the Chilton one in the link I posted before. It's very comprehensive. Might be different with Mazda Dealerships maybe but all of the garages I've spoke to mentioned the Chilton.
I guess the reason Haynes never made a manual is because there weren't that many MX-3s sold in this country, probably couldn't justify the expense of putting it together. Do Haynes do one for the MX-6 do you know? If they do that would be fairly similar. Steer clear of the MX-5 one though.
-
:idea: :D good shout phebea, chilton do 1… retails @ £17.99 +pp. not sure about the mx6 tho... orderd it there now... cheers :)
-
sori bout the mispelt name lol… its earli n am tired :oops:
-
yea, i'm ment to be gettin the mazda dealer one
-
i think posting the cd`s on ebay is a good thing too tho… seems 2 b pretty hard 2 get the haul onmanuals if ur like me n dont have a clue. id still buy it like! :wink:
-
Yeah I'd much rather have the book though personally, I wouldn't like to have to refer to my PC every time I needed to check the manual.

The chilton manual covers lots of cars. MX-3 MX-6 Ford probe 626 and 323 I think. I have a copy and it's pretty vague. Not comparable to a haynes but still useful to have.
The computer copies I've seen are what's called workshop manuals, which are very useful so-long as you're pretty competant with cars. They're more of a reference guide rather than step-by-step instructions for certain tasks and they're more maintainance focused rather then how to remove the interior etc.
( a copy can be found on MX-3.com under the technical information heading on the left side of the home page)
Found a copy of the '93 wiring diagrams which are different to that of the workshop manual (seemed more accurate for my car anyway!) which I could email to a couple of people but it would be better if it could be hosted on this site??
-
Is there anywhere you can buy those Workshop Manuals? Viewing them on the PC seems a right pain.
-
I know what u mean but they're 1000+ pages so if you can get hold of them, they're not gonna be cheap! Good luck tho mate!
-
Buy a cheap printer & lots of paper, or print it at work!! lol :lol:
Seriously tho, I have a copy of the service manual in PDF, if anyone wants it give me a shout and we can arrange it. (It is over 45Meg!! :shock: )
