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 2012 Chevrolet Express 4500 has a 6.0L V8 that may be plumbed for compressed natural gas instead of a flex-fuel blend, which puts high-pressure storage, regulation and metering hardware on a cutaway chassis that otherwise looks conventional. The alternative is the turbocharged 6.6L diesel V8 of 403 cubic inches. One body, the two-door cutaway, and one trim, Base, keep everything on the vehicle side of the equation simple.

Engines covered

  • 6.6L V8 (403 cu in) — OHV, turbocharged, diesel
  • 6.0L V8 (364 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, CNG or flex-fuel

Body styles covered

  • 2-door cutaway

Trims covered

  • Base
