user manuals...out of date?

[joko]

i am tryingto find a user manual/handbook for my car...a vw passat auto estate 2002

i have located one online but it is dated 1997-2001...

i have been struggling for a while to find the right one - so would this one be worth getting?
how different will the cars be?

will it be generally the same manual, save for a few changes - or a vastly different one

its probably going to be cheap so is it worth a punt?

thanks

There should not be a lot of difference, from mid 2001 the main difference were to new headlights, tail lights bumpers and body trim. So all major issues should be as they were.

I found some for sale but they are expensive. I know nothing about cars so I hope they are the correct manuals.

Good luck.

Might be worth asking on VW specific forums such as this:

A lot of car companies have free dowloadable PDF Drivers handbooks, Mine does.
