Service/reair Manual For Mkii?

[SolarB]

Hello. Newbee here.

 

I can only find a Haynes manual for MkI Galaxies up to 2000. I've just bought a 2001 MkII 1.9 TDi Ghia (collecting tomorrow). As I intend to service it myself I need a service/repair manual. Does anyone know if:

Haynes ever produced a manual for the MKII?

Is there an alternative manual?

Is there much difference between a MkI and II? I'm not worried about minor trim and headlight changes but are the two versions mechanically similar?

 

The Galaxy is replacing an Audi that Haynes didn't cover and I struggled to find wiring and engine information. Hopefully I won't have the same problem with the Galaxy.

 

Edit: Oops, spelling mistake in the title and used capital I's for numbers....and I can't edit the title.

Nope

Not one along the lines of a haynes

Mainly trim related, the engines and most components were largely the same with the exception of the diesel doh!

Find somone nice with a copy of TIS (thats fords own internal system - Technical Information System) which contains assembly removal, installation and wiring diagrams and get a copy :wacko:

 

Oh and welcome! :)

Hi Mariz.

Does that mean the Haynes manual doesn't cover my 115bhp TDi engine? :wacko: If it doesn't do you know where else Ford used this engine?

Do you have any idea which TIS I'd need or isn't it that simple? I bought two CDs for my Audi and they were both pretty useless. I'm happy to spend the money if I can be sure I'm buying the right data.

 

Thanks for the welcome. I'm sure I'll become a regular poster as I learn about my new toy.

The only diesel the haynes covers I believe is the older one, none of the PD engines but then I could be mistaken there. There are some similarites but a fair few differences.

 

I have only ever had the complete version of TIS, which covers all models. I need to update as I dont have the latest so I dont have the Mk3 but the Mk2 is covered well - just avoid ebay as there are lots of stories on there about half CD's and data missing :wacko:
