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 factory service and repair manual is built around the 2016 Hyundai Veloster exactly as it left the factory that year, matched to your car's engine and trim, so each specification and tightening sequence you work to is the figure Hyundai published for this vehicle rather than one carried over from an adjacent model year.

Engines covered

  • 1.6L inline-four (97 cu in) — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline
  • 1.6L inline-four (97 cu in) — DOHC, turbocharged, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 3-door hatchback

Trims covered

  • Base
  • Rally Edition
  • SE
  • Tech
  • Turbo
  • Turbo R-Spec

Known issues on the 2016 Veloster. One recall is on federal record for this model year, and it covers the engine. Hyundai is recalling certain 2015-2016 Veloster vehicles over the connecting rod bearings inside the engine, and a damaged engine can increase the risk of a fire or it can cause an engine stall. Owners have filed 297 complaints for the year and Hyundai has issued 95 technical service bulletins.

Whether you are tracing a stall on the 1.6L, turbocharged or naturally aspirated, or working through a scheduled service on a Base or Rally Edition car, it keeps you on Hyundai's own procedure and the correct figure for this 2016 Veloster.

NHTSA #20V74600001/12/2020Component: ENGINE

Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2015-2016 Veloster, 2012 Santa Fe, 2011-2013 Sonata Hybrid, and 2016 Sonata Hybrid vehicles. The connecting rod bearings inside the engine may wear prematurely, which over time can result in engine damage.

Consequence

A damaged engine can increase the risk of a fire or it can cause an engine stall, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the engine. If bearing damage is found, the engine will be replaced. Dealers will also install a software update containing a new Knock Sensor Detection System (KSDS). Repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began March 31, 2021. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 198.
