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 2018 Chevrolet Equinox covers a range that is turbocharged from end to end: a 1.5L gasoline inline-four of 91 cubic inches, a 1.6L diesel of 98 cubic inches and a 2.0L gasoline unit of 122 cubic inches, all with double overhead cams. Five trims, L through Premier Plus, sit on the single four-door sport utility body. Boost control, charge cooling and, for the diesel, high-pressure fuel and aftertreatment work each carry their own procedures and specifications.

Known issues on the 2018 Equinox. The federal record carries five recalls against the 2018 Equinox. One covers rear brake caliper pistons finished with too little coating, letting gas pockets form so rear braking weakens. Another covers a high-pressure fuel pump that can work loose from its mounting flange and damage the fuel line it feeds, opening a leak. A third covers the right front intermediate driveshaft, which can fracture and separate, stopping propulsion or letting a parked vehicle move on its own. Complaints total 403 and lead with the service brakes at 95, the power train at 62 and the electrical system at 48.
