For the Workshop Repair Guides in ElsaWin, which is all that is really useful, you don't need any data from the web, all is included.
All You enter is Your Sales Model, Engine No, Gearbox No and year of Manufacture, VIN Not required,



and all the procedures are then available.

But you shouldn't have to do that as all that data can be found from the VIN number if the program is that good.  :wink:

I have to say I never found it a great chore making a selection from four drop down menus.

Its a small price to pay unless you want to pay the licence..  :smiley:

Well it won't find anything for me as you've suggested. I enter all the spec without the VIN number and the OK button still isn't enabled. As I've said its s**t.

Looks like a problem with your version, mine works fine for that data.



Are you using this option, as the rest don't work

Sorry if this is an old thread but its relevant.

I've just installed Vivid WorkshopData ATI v10.2 and it works great. Obviously they are manuals for 47 manufacturers but it cover my GTD & GTI 2008>
