Review: Five Stars - excelllent Review: For those who are clueless when it comes to anything mechanical - I bought this book after spending 1200 euros in a year purely on routine servicing for my vehicles. I knew absolutely nothing about engines, or oil, or maintenance or anything of the sort. In almost a year since i bought this book, I have carried out ten full services on my own vehicles and those of all my family members. This book gives you what most ' how to' books DON'T. That is ' THE CONFIDENCE TO HAVE A GO YOURSELF' without feeling inadequate, or confusing you with terminology that is hard to understand. This book, like all Dummies books I've seen is written in extremely simple jargon that a child could understand, and assumes absolutely no prior knowledge. It quickly explains the basics, then moves on accordingly until you quickly reach a thorough understanding of each subject. It's also written in a way that you can jump from section to section of particular interest, without having to read the book from beginning to end before you can attempt to do anything. The only downsides to the book, and the reason I haven't given it 5 stars is that although simply written, its written for an American audience and some of the terminology differs from British. The diesel section also is a little dated now, as diesel engines have improved leaps and bounds in the past few years. I feel this is partly due to the fact that until recently there were little or none diesel cars in the usa, so this section could be improved upon. But a very valuable book to me, and a perfect present for anyone who would LIKE TO HAVE A GO, but lacks the confidence and know-how. I certainly feel it has taught me a lot and has been a worthy investment. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 1,346,358 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 1,345 in Home Improvement Guides 1,400 in Automotive Repair 1,554 in Automobile Engineering | | Customer reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (135) | | Dimensions | 19.05 x 3.18 x 22.86 cm | | Edition | Revised, Updated | | ISBN-10 | 0764550896 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0764550898 | | Item weight | 1.13 kg | | Language | English | | Print length | 600 pages | | Publication date | 16 Sept. 1999 | | Publisher | John Wiley & Sons | ## Images ![Auto Repair For Dummies® - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61WiHBEShoL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars *by A***R on 27 July 2016* excelllent ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ For those who are clueless when it comes to anything mechanical *by D***R on 16 December 2008* I bought this book after spending 1200 euros in a year purely on routine servicing for my vehicles.
