Yes. You need the B4 manual (93-95), not B3.

Yeah, B3 is '88-'92, you need the B4 version, which if you get new, is CD-only...

...if you're lucky you can find a used paper one on eBay...

But technically, the paper one isn't a "Bentley". ;)

Honestly though, the B4 manual sucks compared to the B3 manual. I'm glad I own both a B4 and a CQ so I have an excuse to own both manuals.

I've seen a Bentley paper version for the B4s...at least I could have sworn I have...

...but that's the real-deal set you posted...

I bought my paper one from Audi Technical Publications. Each repair group is a separate book...

You can buy the books separately (expensive) or buy them all together (really expensive-$300?).

I bought mine in 1999 when there was NOTHING available. They had a bunch of neat publications and technical manuals for sale. I don't know what they have left on the B4.

I have not seen the CD but it sounds like the same thing I have and ALOT cheaper.
