i was at the Acura dealer today gettin a new key and i asked them about the Hemls manual. he said they didn't have them but he gave me a this paper thing where i can order the factory service manual and ETM that Acura uses. but at the very bottom on the ordering part it says HELM. is the factory service manual the same as a helms manual or are they different, if so, which is better?

 

i think they are the same thing. i have a friend who is a tech at honda and they have theirs on cd-rom.

 

there is a helms consumers manual and a technical service manual used in the auto tech. industry. This is definatly what you want. More expensive but nice detailed exploded views with parts #'s on everything. Worth considering.
