The download I received was a complete waste of my money. Was not even close to what it was represented as. I thought I was getting a proper service repair manual. What I got was a collection of service bulletins. I sent an email to your company right after I looked through it requesting my money back. Have yet to hear a response. Terry Muich

More detailed than I thought, still trying to navigate through it, not what I thought it would be, thought it would be more like the Haynes manual.

It was much larger than i expected. 5 documents at 12k pages each. Its not something ill actually be able read but its easy enough to find what you need..
The Ford F250 manual is much easier to navigate at just over 8000 pages.
If i spend the money for Adobe Acrobat Professional ill be able to break it down into manageable bits.
Both manuals area great value for the money.

Schematics were not high resolution making the markings and names difficult to read when zoomed in. Improvement is needed. Otherwise it is a good document.

I wasn’t sure why I needed this to be a PDF, but it was apparent once I got it. It includes what would be thousands of pages if it were in print. The links take you to wherever you need to go in the text.

would rather have a maintenance manual. have a parts manual from parts vu company. only difference is that your parts manual has all together whereas the parts vu had to download the differsections individually.

Our original order was supposed to be for our 2014 Subaru Outback, yet the manual came up as Forester. We did have to purchase a new manual in order for them to send us the correct manual. We hope it will help us repair our Subaru.

Item as described quick delivery

The 1987 Acura Legend factory service and repair manual is matched to this exact model year, covering both V6 engines — the 2.5L and the 2.7L — across all six coupe and sedan trims, so the specifications and procedures are correct for your engine and trim.

Engines

  • 2.7L V6 — 2675cc (163 cu in), SOHC, naturally aspirated, gas
  • 2.5L V6 — 2494cc (152 cu in), SOHC, naturally aspirated, gas

Trims

  • L Coupe 2-Door
  • Base Sedan 4-Door
  • LS Coupe 2-Door
  • L Sedan 4-Door
  • LS Sedan 4-Door
  • Base Coupe 2-Door

Known issues on the 1987 Legend. One recall is on federal record for this model year, against the front seat belt buckle assembly: the front safety belt buckle release buttons can break, and if a button breaks, pieces can fall into the buckle assembly, so the safety belts would not provide adequate protection to an occupant in a vehicle crash. Owners have filed 9 complaints and Acura has issued 3 technical service bulletins for this year.

From a routine service interval to a restraint-system repair or a hard-to-trace wiring fault, it keeps you on the factory procedure and the correct specification for your specific 1987 Legend.

NHTSA #95V10300124/05/1995Component: SEAT BELTS:FRONT:BUCKLE ASSEMBLY

THE FRONT SAFETY BELT BUCKLE RELEASE BUTTONS CAN BREAK. THESE RED PLASTIC RELEASE BUTTONS ARE MARKED "PRESS." IF A BUTTON BREAKS, PIECES CAN FALL INTO THE BUCKLE ASSEMBLY CAUSING THE BUCKLE TO OPERATE IMPROPERLY.

Consequence

THE SAFETY BELTS WOULD NOT PROVIDE ADEQUATE PROTECTION TO AN OCCUPANT IN A VEHICLE CRASH.

Remedy

OWNERS SHOULD PROMPTLY CHECK THE CONDITION AND OPERATION OF BOTH FRONT SAFETY BELT BUCKLES. CAREFULLY INSPECT THE RED RELEASE BUTTON FOR ANY BREAKS OR CRACKS. CHECK THAT BOTH BUCKLES ARE OPERATING PROPERLY BY INSERTING EACH LATCH PLATE INTO ITS BUCKLE, TUG ON THE BELT TO MAKE SURE THE LATCH IS SECURELY LOCKED, THEN PRESS THE RELEASE BUTTON. THE LATCH PLATE SHOULD POP OUT OF THE BUCKLE WHEN THE BUTTON IS PRESSED. IF EITHER RELEASE BUTTON SHOWS ANY SIGN OF BREAKAGE OR CRACKING, OR IF EITHER BUCKLE
