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 2006 Mazda Tribute factory service and repair manual is built specifically for the S and i trims and their 2.3L L4 (VIN Z) or 3.0L V6 (VIN 1) engine, so the specs and procedures inside match what Mazda published for this exact configuration rather than a generic Tribute reference.

Engines covered

  • 3.0L V6 (181 cu in) — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline
  • 2.3L inline-four (140 cu in) — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 4-door sport utility

Trims covered

  • i
  • S

Known issues on the 2006 Tribute. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers aftermarket front wheel bearings sold as replacement parts: units with an undersized outer dimension and width can adversely affect braking and steering, increasing the risk of a crash. The second covers 3.0L V6 models with speed control, where inadequate clearance between the engine cover and the speed control cable connector can produce a stuck throttle at full or near-full pedal travel, risking very high speeds and difficulty stopping the vehicle. The third covers the windshield wiper motor, where an ungreased output shaft gear can distort or fracture after sustained high-speed use, cutting out wiper function in bad weather. Owners have filed 135 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged for the 2006 Tribute. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

From a wheel bearing inspection to a speed control cable check or a wiper motor swap, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2006 Tribute.
