2009 Chevrolet C6500 Kodiak Service and Repair Manual
This factory service and repair manual for the 2009 Chevrolet C6500 Kodiak lists four bodies, among them two cutaway configurations, along with three codes and three engines. The diesels are turbocharged inline-sixes of 7.2 and 7.8 liters; the gasoline alternative is the naturally aspirated 8.1L overhead-valve V8 of 496 cubic inches.
