Does this S3 manual look any good?

[Fat Tony]

Hey everyone, was looking for an S3 haynes manual, and im guessing there isn't one!?!
I found this

(please follow the link in the next post below, it says i cant show links until i have posted 2 or more times )
(hello to everyone too by the way )

I was wondering if it looks useful for DIY on the S3?

Covers detailed job instructions, mechanical and electrical faults, technical modifications, wiring diagrams, service guides, technical bulletins and more.

Thanks for any input, James

You can get a Haynes manual for the A3 which is around 85% S3.

That one linked looks EXACTLY like ELSA with a different window.

Like I reckon it is ELSA.

ELSA is free if you look hard enough.

OK, checked and it is just ELSA.

Its the official workshop software for dealerships so its a good product.

However, they must be doing it on the dodgy like as its certainly not 10GBP new.

So you are paying someone for downloaded software which they got for free. Myself, I'd just download it for free and save the 10 GBP.

Its all on the torrents.
