A lot of it seems to be the same, having said that i have never seen one for B4 so don't know if they exist
Some of the guys on here get excellent diagrams up though and info to go with them, just ask in general because you will get lots of help on here.

B4 saloon/avant have different rear suspension and more engine choice which is same as later A4 (B5) in most places (engine/rear suspension) , B4 coupe is realy just a B3 with different bonnet/headlights.

Has anyone tried using these?

Or are they just a scam? PDFM's of the proper Audi manuals would be handy!

I've just emailed them about this one. I wanted to make sure it covered the 2.6e quattro avant.

None of the Haynes manuals cover the quattro versions in B3/B4 or even A4 B5 versions. But the B3 manual is OK for all 4 and 5 cylinder engines and front suspension info which is common to front and 4 wheel drive cars. The haynes A4 book I have only covers the 4 cylinder engines. Perhaps one of the Audi 100 or A6 manuals may cover the 2.6 and 2.8 12v V6 engines I don;t know.

I have a Bentley manual for my car B3 20v quattro, its basically a copy of the Audi workshop manual and covers the saloon and coupe models in 4 and 5 cylinder guise, the Americans apparenty demand that car manufactures release the official details in the USA.

Have you tried 12v.org site for info on the V6 engine, quite a good site -link http://www.12v.org/

Sadly they only cover the 4 and 5 cylindered cars and only fwd. Anything V6 or I5 turbo and or quattro is Audi or the superb Bentley manuals.
