1980-1984

1985-1993

Bentley Service Manual: A must for any VW owner planning to do any work on his/her car. While it's not perfect, it's the best DIY repair manual out there.

Note 1: Those with 1984 Rabbit Convertibles with space-saver spare tires should buy the 1985-1993 Cabriolet/Scirocco manual.

Note 2: ISBN 978-0-8376-0362-9 is the soft-cover edition; ISBN 978-0-8376-1636-0 is the new hard-cover edition for the '85-'93 manual.  As of June 2010 Bentley is publishing the manual with a hard cover.
