2009 Honda Fit Service and Repair Manual
The 2009 Honda Fit factory service and repair manual is built for this exact model year, so the specifications and procedures inside track the Fit as Honda actually configured it that year, right down to the 1.5L L4 (L15A7) engine under the hood, instead of a generic Fit-era average.

Known issues on the 2009 Fit. Eleven recalls are on federal record for this model year, most of them part of the multi-wave Takata air bag inflator campaigns: several cover a passenger frontal air bag inflator that was installed incorrectly and may not deploy properly in a crash, while others cover driver- and passenger-side inflators that can rupture and send metal fragments toward occupants, resulting in serious injury or death. A separate recall covers the driveshaft's protective coating, where a broken drive shaft can cause a sudden loss of drive power or let the vehicle roll away if the parking brake was not applied before exiting. Another covers the engine's variable valve timing and lift (VTEC) spring assemblies, which can fail and stall the engine during operation. Owners have filed 287 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged for the model. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
Whether you're working through an air bag inflator campaign, inspecting the driveshaft coating, or chasing a VTEC-related stall, it keeps you on Honda's factory procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2009 Fit.
