Yes, there is, but it's a lot more money $160+. However, it DOES include the shop manual as well. The new 6th edition covers principles and theory of operation of CVTs and linear solenoids in much greater detail.

The reason I was pushing the 3rd edition was for its affordability. For $15 bucks how can a guy go wrong? Right? If somebody really likes the 3rd edition that much, then they can dive in head first and upgrade to the 6th edition if the they want. -OR- If they feel they are pretty sure they want to learn theory and principles of operation, then go for the gusto and just order the 6th edition right up front. Either, or... you're going to like it. It all depends on how much you want to invest.
