You don't really want Haynes. Get the factory manuals.

Check the parts for sale section.

Haynes and Clymer don't make manuals for the C5 and C6 - mostly because of the complexity of the cars. The Factory manual is three volumes and each volume is about 2 inches thick!

Get the factory manual - check Ebay, you might find one there. Otherwise check with Bob at Fichtner and order a set.

And the best manual out there for the car is the one the dealerships use - Helms.
