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.

This factory service and repair manual is built specifically for the 1999 Porsche Boxster in Base Convertible 2-Door trim with the 2.5L H6 (VIN A) engine, so the torque values, clearances, and diagnostic steps inside are the ones Porsche published for this exact configuration, not a generic Boxster reference.

Engines

  • 2.5L H6 (VIN A) Gas

Trims

  • Base Convertible 2-Door

Known issues on the 1999 Boxster. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers Tiptronic-equipped cars with an incorrectly adjusted key-lock cable: the ignition key can snag on removal, or the selector lever can be shifted out of Park with the key removed, and if the parking brake is not on the car is not secured from rolling away, increasing the risk of a crash. The other two cover aftermarket corner and bumper lamp assemblies sold for various passenger vehicles, including this one, that fail Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108 because they lack the required amber side reflectors, decreasing lighting visibility and increasing the risk of a crash. Owners have filed 28 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

Whether you're inspecting the shift-lock interlock, sorting out a lighting fitment, or working through a routine service interval, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 1999 Boxster.
