Like the title says.. I'm looking to purchase both a Haynes and Factory Service Manual for my 2002 Accord EX 4-dr 4-cyl 5-spd.

Let me know what you have :) and how much you want - shipping to 60126.

The factory service manual is made by Helm. You can check them out at helminc.com. They cost $70 new, but it is very hard to get one recently as they are always sold out for our generation Accord. I am currently trying to get my wife to buy me one for my birthday (July 4), but they always sell out before she gets the chance to get on there and order one.
Good luck finding a used one! Other than on here, I would try ebay.
Haynes manuals are OK, but I don't see why you would need one if you had a shop manual(Helm)? I have a Haynes (bought it for around $20 at AutoZone) but I currently use it since I don't have anything better.

I carry my Chilton's in my seat pocket all the time, maybe carting around a phone book-sized Helms just isn't practical with gas these days :-D

Thanks for the posts... like finch13 says - I like having the Haynes handy - it's easier for quick things like code lookups, or for another perspective on doing the maintenance... I'm not super advanced - so if I can get a second perspective that helps me. The FSMs typically have schematic figures, not photos - so having the Haynes can be useful sometimes to get a better visual.

I have a 2k Odyssey - I have only the FSM (HELM) for that :) Let me see if I can find a Helm online... I already checked ebay :) I'll prob just end up ordering a new one - if I can find one!

Cheers.

yeah I have done that multiple times. I have yet to ever get an email

. So I just keep getting back on the site to check for availability. I need to remember to mark it on my calendar again.
