Is there any good mx-3 repair manuals at a good price?
I have looked through ebay web sites and all the stores in my area like canadian tire lordco chapters and a few more and cant even find a manual in my area but the ones on the net all want like 20 bucks just to ship it let alone the 30 bucks for the manual. IN canadian funds.

thanks for any help

If you are talking about a Mazda MX-3 Factory Shop manual and the supplemental Body Electrical Troubleshooting manual, those Net prices sound about right.

I paid 45$US (cost + shipping) for mine.

There's a link to an online shop manual on the main page though- and that's free! :o

10 years ago I paid $80.00cdn for my small version of the shop manual. It's paid for itself many times over and believe it was a sound investment. Now that I have the the dealers complete shop manual it's that much better. I find I still end up using both. They do become available from time to time on ebay. Canadian Tire does carry a large line of Haynes and similar type manuals. If not on the shelf, get them to order it.
