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

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.

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 manual for the 2000 Nissan Sentra is built around this specific model year, so the torque values, wiring diagrams and service steps you get are the ones Nissan wrote for the Sentra's own 1.8L (QG18DE) and 2.0L (SR20DE) engines rather than a generic small-sedan procedure.

Engines covered

  • 2.0L inline-four (122 cu in) — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline
  • 1.6L inline-four (97 cu in) — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline
  • 1.8L inline-four — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 4-door sedan

Trims covered

  • GSS
  • GST
  • GSX
  • GXE
  • SE

Known issues on the 2000 Sentra. Seven recalls are on federal record for this model year. Replacement headlamp assemblies used on the car can lack amber side reflectors, leaving the vehicle poorly illuminated and raising crash risk. Cooling holes in the steel wheels can carry manufacturing burrs that propagate into cracks, which can allow a wheel to separate from the hub without warning. Corrosion inside an ECM resistor can trip the malfunction indicator light, cause poor drivability, or stop the engine while driving. A crank or cam position sensor circuit board can develop a bad solder joint, which can trigger the "Service Engine Soon" light, cause a no-start condition, reduce engine power, or stall the engine during operation. Bolts attaching the front lower control arms to the body may not have been properly manufactured and could fracture. The front suspension transverse link's ball joint bracket can break from stress concentration at a manufacturing notch. On 1.8L-equipped cars, a defective crank position sensor can stop the engine while it's being driven, sometimes with the "Service Engine Soon" light on or reduced power. Owners have filed 182 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 chasing a stall-prone crank sensor, inspecting front control arm bolts, or swapping a headlamp assembly, it keeps you on the OEM procedure for your specific 2000 Sentra.
