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 2006 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 pairs the 5.3L V8 with a 4.8L V8 of 294 cubic inches, both overhead-valve and naturally aspirated on gasoline, in a single two-door standard cab pickup sold in Base trim alone. One body and one trim keep the chassis and body chapters short; the two displacements are where the reading splits, since specifications and torque values are given per engine and have to be matched to the block actually in the truck.

Engines covered

  • 5.3L V8 (325 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, gasoline
  • 4.8L V8 (294 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 2-door standard cab pickup

Trims covered

  • Base

Known issues on the 2006 Silverado 2500. Eight recalls are listed for 2006. A power steering hose built off specification can fracture under hard steering and lose fluid, taking power assist with it and, on trucks with hydraulic-boost brakes, some braking effort as well. A certification label printed with an incomplete rim designation can lead to a wheel of the wrong contour being fitted at replacement. A fuel rail pulse damper clip that fractures can let the damper loosen and fuel leak. Complaints reach 776, with 314 on the service brakes, 73 electrical and 69 power train.
