Most intelligent repair manual for 96 Accord
 
Just picked up a 96 Accord and plan to do all of the maintenance myself. Is
the factory manual better than a Haynes or is there something else better
out there?
Thanks
Greyhound

I have a Haynes for my daughter's '93 Accord, and there are a lot of things
it doesn't even mention. When I had to fix the heater control cable, the
Haynes didn't mention anything about the heater control valve (I could at
least see that) or the mix box under the console. Grahame pulled my fat out
of the fire with good advice and this useful link:
http://www.honda.co.uk/owner/AccordManual/index.html It appears to be a
factory manual for a '91 reduced to a series of indexed PDFs, with some
updates listed separately.

Getting the factory manual is nearly always the best (and most expensive)
choice.

Factory manual is good! I got a Camry factory manual too for
comparison and I like the Accord manual so much more.
