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.

Item as described quick delivery

This 2008 Audi A4 Quattro factory service and repair manual is matched to your car's exact year, engine, and trim, so the torque values and diagnostic steps come straight from Audi's own documentation for the 2.0L turbo (engine code BWT) or 3.2L V6 (engine code BKH) under your hood, not a generic A4-family approximation.

Engines covered

  • 3.2L V6 — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline
  • 2.0L inline-four (121 cu in) — DOHC, turbocharged, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 2-door convertible
  • 4-door sedan
  • 4-door wagon

Trims covered

  • Base
  • Avant
  • Cabriolet
  • Elite
  • S Line
  • S Line Sport
  • Trendy

Known issues on the 2008 A4 Quattro. Four recalls are on federal record for this model year, and all four concern the passenger frontal air bag system. Three separate campaigns address inflator modules where propellant degradation can cause the inflator to explode or rupture, sending metal fragments at occupants and risking serious injury or death; a fourth covers an air bag control unit that can corrode and fail, so the air bags may not deploy at all in a crash. Owners have filed 191 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind the air bag system, control unit, and inflator modules are here.

Whether you're inspecting the air bag control unit, tracing a restraint-system fault, or working through a routine service interval, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2008 A4 Quattro.
