There is so much in the manual about all the different features associated with each different variation but that is over a dozen pages long. I might eventually scan in a lot of the manual to keep it as an electronic version but it's a few hundred pages long so it'll take a while. Maybe it could be hosted on this site once that is done.

I found this page good as i found out that the coupe was originally auto even though there doesn't seem to be much indication of that. Might have to take a closer look to see how well it was done. Bigger trans tunnel cause of that hopefully. Woo hoo!!!

I love the manual except it reminds me we never got the 1850's, bummer.
Mine is A112H-23 So Auto and Standard, but it was a one owner and ha GL badges on it so should say A112H-20. LOL it all ways gets confusing :facepalm:

WTF?
I just looked at my car and it has no number stamped on the firewall. But has a compliance plate same as boyracer posted. But mine is 9/75?

Yeah it's on the tower, but it starts GC3h45####.
Nothing like the code woops put up from the book on a GC.

did u buy that a112 a114 manual off ebay? i got the same one. i beleive that is for the import models. the number stamped on the firewall is body number whereas the strus number is the VIN (australia).
my 2 sedans only have the VIN on the strur whice uses that second method, whereas my coupe has the firewall number as well as the strut VIN, i think the VIN must have been stamped when the car reached australia and was complied?
even stranger is that my engine has no number!

ps that a112 a114 chassis service manual is 100x better than sex on a boat, has EVERYTHING IMAGINEABLE in it. everythin.
but it has all the import models. i will scan a few pages i found usefull n stick them in galant garage sticky ;)
