2010 GMC Canyon Service and Repair Manual

This factory service and repair manual for the 2010 GMC Canyon serves a truck offered with three unrelated gasoline engines, a 5.3L OHV V8 alongside the DOHC 3.7L inline-five and 2.9L inline-four, in four trims: Base, SLE, SLT and WT. Cab choices carry over as the four-door crew, the four-door extended and the two-door standard. Each engine has its own specifications and torque values, and the wiring diagrams and diagnostic procedures are arranged by system so a shop can work across the range without hunting.

Known issues on the 2010 Canyon. Owners logged 13 complaints with NHTSA on this model year, a small number spread thinly across body structure, vehicle speed control and air bags rather than concentrated anywhere. Those are systems this manual documents in detail: body and frame procedures with their torque values, throttle and cruise control diagnostics tied to the wiring diagrams, and supplemental restraint routines with the handling precautions that go with them. Engine, transmission, brake and chassis coverage takes in the rest of the truck to the same depth for each of the three engines.
