#1 S1 4.2 Service Manual

Post by caveman » Mon Sep 06, 2021 8:04 pm

Is there a S1 4.2 Service Manual available within the knowledge base? I can’t see one and my hard copy supp to 3.8 Manual is buried in boxes since moving house :scratchheadyellow:
:thankyouyellow:

Technical information and documentation? Haven’t checked all the 4.2 section but think it should be there :shrug:

S1 service manual complete seems to be what you need

It's the same as the 3.8 one, with supplementary info at the back.

Apologies gents, I thought it was more obvious. I quickly rattled through the 3.8 manual but may have skipped it. It might be easier seeking out my boxes at this rate :hammerdrill:

Maybe if I had more problems with my car more often I’d know where it was first attempt :scratchheadyellow:
Just trying to confirm brake servo/vacuum connections on 4.2. As well as dual hydraulic circuit for early version. :shrug:

You know, you're right Steve. I just looked at the 3.8 Service manual. The 4.2 appendices aren't there. :scratchheadyellow:

If brake info is what you want the brake section in the S2 book should be ok. The only difference should be the front calipers.

The S2 manual will only have the late hydraulic circuit.

Thanks Andrew, I knew I wasn't going mad. I remember my hard copy being very different to the digital version here. I'll dig it out.

Steve, if you follow what I said above you’ll see a part listed as “S1 4.2 service manual complete” download that as it shows it as having the supplements for the 4.2 and 2+2

It’s just above the line for the S1 3.8 parts catalogue

That doesn't have the 4.2 stuff in it.

I can offer the 4.2 supplement in a variety of forms.

Ok, I only read the first page which implied all the supplements. I stand corrected

Thanks Gents, I finally got around to digging out my original workshop manual.
I now have a working brake servo that was incorrectly plumbed for last 20yrs! Ready for Applecross alpine route and the NC500 now :swerve:
