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.

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 is narrow here on purpose: the 2003 Lexus GS 430 was built with a single 4.3L V8 (3UZ-FE) in one trim, and this service and repair manual is matched to that exact combination, so the clearances, torque figures and service intervals it gives are the ones Lexus published for the 2003 car rather than values carried over from another year or another GS engine.

Known issues on the 2003 GS 430. No recalls are on federal record for the 2003 GS 430. Owners have filed 5 complaints for the year, and Lexus has issued no technical service bulletins for it. With no defect campaign to work from, a fault on this car is ordinary diagnostic work, and the test procedures, specifications and repair steps behind those systems are here.

For a scheduled service, a suspension check, or a fault a previous owner left behind, it puts the OEM procedure and the 4.3L V8's own specifications in front of you instead of a generic figure.

WHILE THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE SAFETY REACALL BULLETIN REGARDING UN-INTENDED ACCELERATION, MY VEHICLE NO EXHIBITS THE ISSUE THAT, WHILE IN MOTION, THE BRAKE AND ACCELERATOR PEDALS CAN BE PUSHED SIMULTANEOUSLY, POSSIBLY CAUSING A VEHICLE ACCIDENT.

I OWN A 2003 LEXUS GS 430 VEHICLE. DURING THE TIME THAT I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE, I CONTINUE TO EXPERIENCE VIBRATION AND BRAKE AND WHEEL WEAR ON THE FRONT END ASSEMBLY. THE DEALERSHIP HAS ALIGNED THE FRONT END AND CHANGED TIRES, BUT THE PROBLEM IS REPEATING. I BELIEVE THAT THE VEHICLE IS IMPROPERLY DESIGNED EITHER TO ACCEPT 17 IN. TIRES OR TO HANDLE A 4.3 LITER ENGINE. THE DEALERSHIP INSISTS THAT ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS ROTATE TIRES EVERY 5,000 MILES AND THERE IS NO PROBLEM, BUT THIS IS NOT T
