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.

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.

Known issues on the 2005 A3. One recall is on federal record for this model year, issued alongside the related Volkswagen Passat and Audi A4 Cabriolet, covering the driver's frontal air bag inflator module: in a crash serious enough to trigger deployment, excessive internal pressure can cause the inflator to rupture and send metal fragments toward the driver or other occupants, risking serious injury or death. No complaints or technical service bulletins are logged for the year. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind that system are here.

Whether you're inspecting the airbag system after this recall or working through a routine service interval, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2005 A3.
