Ordered a mk2 Laguna Haynes manual

Like title says I have ordered a mk2 Laguna Haynes manual so I know if I have any problems and want to take some bits on my car apart then I'll know how to do it and might give advice to people before they decide on anything they may do etc.

Excellent, i'm sure that info will be invaluable over time to many members, especially as money gets tighter and garages get more expensive.

Also the reason I bought it so if I can do the odd little repairs myself I will use the Haynes manual otherwise if I didn't buy one I wouldn't of done.

Could you let me know if it covers the 3.0 petrol V6? Really annoying that Haynes only ever cover the engines they expect to be the best sellers. I also have a Mégane II 2.0 Petrol - but of course Mr Haynes only covered the 1.4 and 1.6 as us 2.0 Petrol owners are a rare breed

I found the haynes manual to be a bit limited on info for some things. For those like me who are only just finding there way around the engine the pictures are of no use at all sometimes, as they don't describe where the parts are located.

It can also be a bit frustrating having to flick back through the book to read how to dissasemble certain parts in order to do a minor job.
Are there any alternatives?

The haynes manual should cover all of the mk2 Lagunas as the cover says from (X-reg to 07-reg) so it should have all of them. As soon as it arrives ill let you know Luke .

I have the 2001 to 2005 edition and that only covers up to 2.2 litre engine by looks of things.

I would expect they do a revised edition though as the one i have is fairly old now.

Strange that though as the 3.0 V6 that Luke wants to know if the book covers it, you would of thought that the 2001-2005 edition would have it in there as this model of engine is quite old now.

I found this site http://servicemanuals.herobo.com/ just checking to see if these are any good.

I got Haynes manual as well but as someone mentioned before it is bit limited. If you want to dig deeper I would suggest you to install program called ‘’DIALOGYS”. It will give you access to all the parts, prices, pictures of every renault model and so on. Very, very useful tool.

Thanks for the info guys surely they will come in useful when or if I'm doing any work on my car .

Well it came today so ill be looking at it soon. I may look for Luke to see if they do the 3.0 I can't see why it shouldn't have it in there though.

I did have a look in the manual and I can't seem to find a 3.0 v6 in there for some reason??
A bit strange why they don't do this model??

I didn't think they would... Thanks for checking anyway

That's ok I'll do anything for my fellow Laguna members lol always happy to help

There is no V6 in my Haynes manual, either. I don't think there was edition with that engine included.

I wonder if they made a separate "supplement" for the V6 engine like they did for some other cars

The haynes manual did come in useful for something I replaced my pollen filter cause before I had no idea where it was but now I do it's in the glove box department that's why it's so small, I was always wondering why it was that size for quite a long time so now I know lol.

Either that or get the original Renault service stuff. I know the engine pretty well from having the Avantime but it would be nice to have some guidance for those "stuff it" moments

You would of thought the Haynes manual would of included that model unless they didn't think it was necessary as in not so many were sold but I'm only guessing that might be the reason.

Thats handy to know......i'll definitely need to replace mine after all the dust it'll pick up in rural south east Spain
Cheers.....

I may put a guide on for it with pictures soon as I know how to do it now lol.
