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 2008 Chevrolet HHR opens with the only forced-induction engine in its list, a turbocharged 2.0L DOHC inline-four of 122 cubic inches, followed by naturally aspirated 2.2L and 2.4L fours of 134 and 145 cubic inches. The bodies are the four-door and two-door wagon, and the trim list runs to seven, from LS and LS Panel through LT and LT Panel to the SS. Turbocharged and naturally aspirated engines need different fuel, ignition and cooling data, and each is given its own.

Known issues on the 2008 HHR. The federal record holds five recalls for this model year. An ignition switch that lets its key be removed out of the off position can leave the car free to roll; the same switch, weighted by a heavy key ring, can slip from run to accessory and stall the engine, and with the ignition out of run the air bags will not deploy in a crash. Replacement switches sold for that repair carry the same fault. Two further recalls concern head impact protection inside the cabin. Steering accounts for 297 of 616 complaints, ahead of the electrical system at 79.
