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 2001 Ford Taurus documents the four-door wagon and the four-door sedan in LX, SE, SEL and SES trims, four in all, with a choice of two naturally aspirated 3.0L V6 engines. One is the OHV V6 listed for flex-fuel or gasoline; the other is the DOHC V6 on gasoline. The manual's procedures, specifications, torque values, wiring diagrams and diagnostics separate the two engines cleanly, which matters because the shared displacement hides a different valvetrain and, on the OHV engine, flex-fuel capability.

Engines covered

  • 3.0L V6 (182 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, flex-fuel or gasoline
  • 3.0L V6 (181 cu in) — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 4-door wagon
  • 4-door sedan

Trims covered

  • LX
  • SE
  • SEL
  • SES

Known issues on the 2001 Taurus. The federal record holds eight recalls. The child seat anchor fasteners can lack enough residual torque to hold a child seat in a crash; the seat belt buckle tongue may not fully eject, or may only partly latch, when the release button is pushed slowly; and a switch in the wiper motor gear case cover can overheat, killing the wipers or igniting the plastic. Owners have brought 1049 complaints to NHTSA, and suspension dwarfs the next groups, vehicle speed control and the service brakes. Torque values for the seat anchorages, wiper motor wiring diagrams and suspension procedures are in the manual.
