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.

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.

This factory service and repair manual for the 2006 GMC Savana 3500 lands on a year of change: a turbocharged 6.6L diesel V8 of 403 cubic inches heads the engine list ahead of the 6.0L and 4.8L gasoline V8s, the trim structure moves to Base, LS and LT, and the body count grows to seven as four-door standard cargo and passenger vans join the three-door cargo and passenger vans, the extended versions of each and the two-door cutaway.

Engines covered

  • 6.6L V8 (403 cu in) — OHV, turbocharged, diesel
  • 6.0L V8 (364 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, gasoline
  • 4.8L V8 (294 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 3-door extended cargo van
  • 3-door standard cargo van
  • 4-door standard passenger van
  • 3-door extended passenger van
  • 3-door standard passenger van
  • 2-door cutaway van
  • 4-door standard cargo van

Trims covered

  • Base
  • LS
  • LT

Known issues on the 2006 Savana 3500. Seven recalls are recorded against this model year. A power steering hose built out of specification can fracture under full-lock maneuvers and lose fluid, taking power assist and, on hydro-boost vehicles, brake assist with it. Seat belt buckles that will not latch or unlatch account for two of the campaigns, and unused rear air-conditioning blower wiring on cutaway chassis can corrode and overheat. Ten owner complaints are logged, led by the steering, then the engine and seats, so the steering hydraulics are where the record and the owners agree.
