Volvotips got exclusive permission of Volvo Cars Heritage to publish the Volvo 940 & 960 service manuals and Volvo 900-series parts catalogs. These service manuals and parts catalogs can be viewed at Volvotips but aren’t allowed to be downloaded. Instead of a downloadable PDF I created online Flash-version (sort of e-book) of all Volvo-manuals and catalogs which can be browsed through in your webbrowser. Some other repair manuals are a HTML-version.
