Ive just been playing with Auto data,

how do you use it?
ican only get basic stuff up Diagrams etc,
nothing on dismantling or out like that, seems pretty Boring,

or is there Hidden sections?

ican find stuff like Timing marks and tech stuff but when it comes to
instructions there is none,

Lozz,

Just had a quick google and there appears to be a few official you-tube how to's and some unofficial ones as well.
Can't access you tube at work so no idea how useful they are.

I had a copy of a mate a while ago but like you I couldn't get very far with it.

Pretty sure my copy required XP to run and I no longer have an xp based machine at home. I imagine newer versions for later OS's are available.

I find Autodata very useful, it's meant to be an information source not an instruction manual.

I have Autodata on my computer and have a timing belt book, I also have mates with up to date info books.
