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.

Excellent. Now I can actually start working on my cars again with confidence. YouTube videos really are inadequate.

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.

I didn’t realize I would have a link in an email to click to get another email with another link to download.

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.

The 1987 Cadillac DeVille factory service and repair manual is built around this specific year and trim, giving you the torque figures and repair sequences Cadillac actually published for your car instead of a generic stand-in from another model year.

Engines covered

  • 4.1L V8 (250 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 4-door sedan
  • 2-door coupe

Trims covered

  • Base
  • d'Elegance
  • Touring

Known issues on the 1987 DeVille. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers the fuel system: a replacement fuel filter connector that doesn't meet spec can leave the O-ring poorly seated, creating an inadequate seal that can leak fuel and, near an ignition source, start a fire. The second covers the hydraulic anti-lock brake system: the ABS pressure/warning switch can seep brake fluid and, combined with water contamination the pump motor and electrical relays were exposed to during assembly, can knock out the hydraulic pump motor, causing total loss of rear brakes along with power assist to the front brakes; if the red brake warning light isn't heeded, that loss of rear brakes can lead to a crash, while a failed ABS relay separately kills ABS function while keeping normal power-assisted braking. Owners have filed 54 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

From tracing a fuel filter connection to servicing the hydraulic ABS pump and relays, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 1987 DeVille.
