So what's the best one to get for a mk 2 vrs tdi cr? Is the Haynes any good for this or are there any better ones? I'll be using it mainly for consumables, interior trim and suspension.

Cheers dudes!

I've always found my Haynes's adequate for minor to middling jobs, but haven't had any others to compare them with, nor tried to do anything major with them like removing a gearbox for example. Certainly they're better than nothing and just hoping to muddle through on anything.

The manufacturer's own service and maintenance manuals are here.

It's about 25 euro to download manuals for the day (.PDF).

There is also a pirate web based version available. Google it I supose.

Thanks all, think I'll go with a Haynes!

I have just bought a Haynes manual. Although not directly related to a vRS it should be sufficient for general maintenance.
