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.

Item as described quick delivery

The 2019 Acura RDX service and repair manual is matched to this exact year, engine and trim, so the specifications and procedures are the ones that apply to your vehicle.

Engines

  • 2.0L I4 — 1996cc (122 cu in), DOHC, turbocharged, gas

Trims

  • SH-AWD Sport Utility 4-Door
  • Base Sport Utility 4-Door
  • Tech Sport Utility 4-Door
  • A-Spec Sport Utility 4-Door

Known issues on the 2019 RDX. Four recalls are on federal record for this model year: three separate fuel pump recalls, where fuel pump failure can cause an engine stall while driving, increasing the risk of a crash, and one front seat belt buckle assembly recall, where an unlatched seat belt cannot properly restrain the seat occupant during a crash. Owners have filed 552 complaints and 153 technical service bulletins have been issued for the year.

From a scheduled service interval to a fuel-delivery fault or a restraint-system inspection, it keeps you on the factory procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2019 RDX.
