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.

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.

This 2004 Audi A4 factory service and repair manual is built around your car's specific year, engine and trim, so the specifications and procedures inside are the ones Audi published for the A4 rather than generic figures pulled from another model.

  • 3.0L V6 — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Known issues on the 2004 A4. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers the front passenger frontal air bag inflator module, where an inflator rupture can send metal fragments into the vehicle occupants, resulting in serious injury or death. The second involves aftermarket water pumps installed on the engine, where a timing belt failure can cause the engine to shut down, increasing the risk of a crash. The third covers the xenon headlights, whose coating can degrade over time and reduce a driver's field of view, increasing the risk of a crash. Owners have filed 189 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 inspecting the air bag inflator, replacing a timing belt and water pump, or checking headlight output, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and correct specification for your specific 2004 A4.
