Looks like an incomplete random collection of service manual pages with technical service bulletins mixed in, all in random order. This is nothing like what their site advertises.

I see that key engine, transmission, brake and suspension sections are extremely incomplete or completely missing.

Very disappointing.

I will dispute this with my credit card, and I will lodge a complaint with the various authorities, and I am going to show this to my attorneys, they are going to have fun with these goons.

The manual seems to be complete and was easy to download. The pages are images, however, and not searchable.

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.

This factory service and repair manual for the 1996 Chevrolet Silverado sets out a scope that fits in a sentence: two trims, SLE and SLX, one two-door sport utility body, and one engine, the 350-cubic-inch 5.7-liter V8, overhead-valve, naturally aspirated and gasoline-fueled. Everything from valve-train clearances to driveline torque values is written against that configuration, so a technician working through the truck is never reconciling figures meant for some other displacement or some other equipment level.

Engines covered

  • 5.7L V8 (350 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 2-door sport utility

Trims covered

  • SLE
  • SLX

Known issues on the 1996 Silverado. Neither a recall nor a single owner complaint appears on the federal record for the 1996 model year, so there is no failure pattern to flag. What the manual supplies instead is the working detail: overhaul and in-vehicle procedures for the V8, fuel, ignition and emissions specifications, cooling system service, transmission, transfer case and axle work, brake hydraulic and friction figures, steering and suspension geometry and torque values, and the wiring diagrams and diagnostic charts for the body's circuits.

No active recalls The 1996 Chevrolet Silverado has no recalls on file with NHTSA.
