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.

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 2002 GMC Safari has a short lineup to describe: SL, SLE and SLT trims, extended cargo and extended passenger bodywork in three-door form, and one engine, a naturally aspirated 4.3L V6 measuring 262 cubic inches and using overhead valves. With so little variation to track, the book reads as a straight system reference, running from engine mechanical and fuel through the transmission, brakes, suspension, steering, body and electrical systems, each of them documented with specifications, torque values, wiring diagrams and diagnostic procedures.

Engines covered

  • 4.3L V6 (262 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 3-door extended cargo van
  • 3-door extended passenger van

Trims covered

  • SL
  • SLE
  • SLT

Known issues on the 2002 Safari. Lighting and fuel account for the three recalls carried on the federal record. An open circuit inside the multifunction switch can knock out the stop lamps and the hazard lamps together. A replacement fuel filter may not seal where it connects, and gasoline escaping near an ignition source can burn. Replacement corner lamps and headlights sold without amber side reflectors fall short of the federal lighting requirement. The 32 owner complaints lean the same way, with 11 on the service brakes, six on the electrical system and three on the suspension.
