Haynes Autofix

Been looking for a manual for our Focus but it appears there is no printed version for the 1.5l Ecoboost, but there two options download/buy the "official" manual or use the Haynes online manual Autofix.

Has anybody used Autofix? is it any good?

Thanks

Hi David
I bought a Haynes Autofix (access on-line only) for my Suzuki S-Cross.
I cannot speak for the ‘manual’ for the Focus but the one for the S-Cross is next to useless. It is not at all S-Cross specific: everything I’ve looked at so far is too generalised, basic and often quite inappropriate - misleading even. For example, even something simple like changing the wheel does not show the correct jacking points which are special on the S-Cross.
As far as I’m concerned, it was a complete waste of money.

 It's "bébéchoon", ackcherly, with accents. 'Steve' to my chums.
20 years ownership of Solihull products, ALL GONE NOW, sniff!
Current motor: Suzuki S-Cross 4WD auto, 1.4 petrol. Oh so reliable! 5 years now and no problems. Oh, all right then, a leaking shocker replaced under guarantee.

Thank you for that, most interesting.

I suppose I had started to suspect something was a bit off as I could find no good reviews.

I'll keep well away and go for a download.
