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.

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.

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 for the 2020 Audi S4 is built for this exact year, engine and trim, covering the 3.0L V6 (engine code CWGD) with the specifications, torque figures, and procedures Audi actually published for it, not an approximation drawn from a related model.

Engines covered

  • 3.0L V6 — DOHC, turbocharged, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 4-door sedan

Trims covered

  • Premium
  • Premium Plus
  • Prestige
  • Progressiv
  • Technik

Known issues on the 2020 S4. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers rear axle misalignment, which after a prior repair may not have been re-inspected, leading to premature or uneven tire wear and increasing the risk of a crash. The second covers the rear axle's trailing arm lock nut, which can break due to stress corrosion, misaligning the axle and causing a loss of control. The third covers the passenger seat's occupant detection wiring, where a faulty connection to the heater cable can make the system misdiagnose a fault and disable the passenger air bag. Owners have filed 16 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

From a rear axle alignment check to tracing a passenger air bag disable fault, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2020 S4.
