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 2008 Chevrolet Equinox has a second engine to account for: alongside the overhead-valve 3.4L V6 of 207 cubic inches sits a 3.6L DOHC V6 of 217 cubic inches, also naturally aspirated on gasoline. The valve train layouts are not the same, so head service, timing and adjustment procedures are given separately for each, with their own torque sequences and clearances. Four trims, LS, LT, LTZ and Sport, share the four-door sport utility body and the chassis, brake and body electrical material that follows.

Known issues on the 2008 Equinox. Owner complaints for this model year number 370, with the air bags heaviest at 85, the electrical system at 58 and steering at 44. Those three lines of the record correspond to three sections a technician reaches for often: restraint system diagnosis with the sensing module and its wiring, charging, grounding and circuit tracing on the body electrical side, and steering column, gear and pump service with the alignment and torque specifications that belong with it. Each is set out here as procedure, specification and diagram rather than as general advice.
