Looking for recommendations for car repair manuals for a relatively new car.
2013 to 2018 Dacia duster 1.5dci model to be more specific.
I have a paper Haynes manual for a much older car but Haynes don't do paper manuals for newer cars.
And reviews of their electronic manuals say that they are more generic in nature and have less specific information.
Some of the manuals that come up in a Google search upon further digging will only run on very limited hardware and software.
I was looking for something that will work on my android phone if at all possible.
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help!
 
I have downloaded a few of these manufacturers manuals over the years.
As you say they are not great. They give basic information of how to find and remove components. They give wiring diagrams some of which are hard to follow.
They give maintenance schedules, but these are usually just commonsense.

Any time I had a fault on these cars I searched online for information on repairs.
In all cases I found YouTube videos which were excellent and showed exactly how to carry out the repair.
 
If you get Borrowbox set up you can read Car Mechanics magazine for free.
This is free from Libraries.

They do basic maintenance schedules for different cars each month.
The chances of finding details of your car is probably slim.
I don't think you can access any more than a few back issues.
