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

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.

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.

would rather have a maintenance manual. have a parts manual from parts vu company. only difference is that your parts manual has all together whereas the parts vu had to download the differsections individually.

Our original order was supposed to be for our 2014 Subaru Outback, yet the manual came up as Forester. We did have to purchase a new manual in order for them to send us the correct manual. We hope it will help us repair our Subaru.

This service and repair manual is built around the 2012 Audi A7 Quattro exactly as Audi configured it, down to the supercharged 3.0L V6 (engine code CGXB), so the specifications, wiring, and torque sequences inside match your car rather than a generic A7 build.

Engines covered

  • 3.0L V6 (183 cu in) — DOHC, supercharged, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 4-door hatchback

Trims covered

  • Base
  • Elite
  • Luxury
  • S Line

Known issues on the 2012 A7 Quattro. Five recalls are on federal record for this model year. Two cover the Passenger Occupant Detection System: in one, stress or wear in the front passenger seat's body-sensing mat can cause the PODS control module to malfunction so the front passenger air bag may not deploy properly in a crash; in the other, on vehicles with heated and cooled seats, the PODS control module may malfunction and prevent the passenger-side air bags from deploying in a crash. Three recalls cover the fuel system: a fuel line with a compression point that can weaken, a fuel hose in the engine compartment that can degrade, and a fuel injection system that may experience a leak — each of which can leak fuel near an ignition source and raise the risk of fire. Owners have filed 30 complaints for this model year, and no technical service bulletins are logged.

Whether you're inspecting a fuel line for the compression-point weakness or verifying the passenger seat's occupant-detection mat, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2012 A7 Quattro.
