 Decent for refrence August 12, 2007

This book is good for general information but lacks details for more troubleshooting problems and also lacks detailed pictures and explanations. Being very experienced on electrical and mechanical repairs on aircrafts this book is much easier to read but I think it does not go into depth into how to properly repair things. For example it does not clearly explain how to adjust spark plugs (I had a mechanic friend explain that for me). Another problem with the book is that they sometimes use longer (and more difficult) steps instead of using logical steps. To remove a fuel filter you have to remove the backseats (for 1997 civic) and disconnect the fuel pump and then run the car until the engine is cut off before you can remove and replace the fuel filter. I found it easier just to bypass the fuse and it took just a fraction of the time to remove the fuel filter. Again, great book for reference but lacks details and it doesn't always use the most logical approach for repair and maintenance. Definitely not a book for beginners.
 General info is good, but inaccurate details November 10, 2006

I have used the Haynes manuals before (for motorcyles) which have always been very good. This one for the car is not very accurate, though. For general information about overall maintenance it is worthwhile, but for the specific details in completing a repair it is sometimes grossly in error. I replaced the hood release cable, and 75% of their directions were wrong. Also, for replacing the coolant they fail to mention the drain plug on the engine (where about half of the coolant is stored) - they only mention the drain plug on the radiator. I know this because I also got the factory service manual on CD on the auction site. I would recommend getting both this book, for general maintenance info, and the factory service manual for specific procedures. Don't rely on this book alone, though, or you will be misguided.
