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.

Item as described quick delivery

Fitment on this one is narrow by design: the 2001 Mazda Protege factory service and repair manual is keyed to this model year and to the 1.6L and 2.0L four-cylinder cars in the trims Mazda actually built, so the clearances, settings and repair sequences you work to are the ones Mazda published for this car and not approximations pulled from an adjacent model year.

Engines covered

  • 1.6L inline-four — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline
  • 2.0L inline-four — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 4-door sedan

Trims covered

  • DX
  • ES
  • LX
  • MP3

Known issues on the 2001 Protege. Five recalls are on federal record for this model year, and four of them sit on exterior lighting rather than on anything Mazda fitted at the factory. Sabersport and DOPE, Inc. each recalled combination corner and bumper lamp assemblies sold as aftermarket equipment for passenger vehicles, while Alfaotto recalled combination headlamps and Tradesonic combination lamps, both sold as replacement lamps for passenger vehicles. In each case the lamps were not equipped with the amber side reflectors required by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108, and the decreased lighting visibility that results may lead to a crash. The fifth recall is on the car itself and covers the hydraulic service brake hoses: some left side rear brake hoses were damaged during assembly and brake fluid leakage could occur, which would degrade brake performance and increase the risk of a crash. Owners have filed 52 complaints against the 2001 Protege.

Whether you are chasing a soft pedal back to a leaking left rear brake hose, refitting a corner lamp assembly, or working a routine service interval, it holds you to Mazda's own procedure and specification for the 2001 Protege.
