Where were wiring diagrams?

Very difficult to navigate seems like similar information is in several random locations

All other content is as promised

Very hard to navigate. Could not even find a index

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

Not a hard copy manual and the file is to big too load on my computer.

I'm trying to download the manual to my laptop. Can't get a table of contents on my phone. Might have a better review the

After directions from from factory manuals,
I downloaded Adobe Acrobat-working great. Great customer service!!!

easy

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.

Delivery via wifi great.

Great

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.

Manual ok. Very hard to find info pertaining to my vehicle

Easy to use and great to look up tech specs.

Easy to find the exact manual for your vehicle, great directions for the download process for the less than savvy internet users.

The manual is awesome!

Pretty good manual, bookmarking could be a little better

I am unable to open the manual. I guess I didn't process something right.

Got the manual almost immediately.

I need a printed 2015 Ford Taurus 3.5 engine repair manual either Chilton or Haynes

Excellent. Now I can actually start working on my cars again with confidence. YouTube videos really are inadequate.

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.

Vary easy

Very satisfied with my purchase. Has all clear details and fixes like the oem factory manual have. Thanks and God bless you.

Finding and ordering the manual for my vehicle was very easy

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.

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.

Quick and easy

Item as described quick delivery

Honda built the 2020 Pilot around the 3.5L V6 (J35Y6), and this factory repair manual is keyed to that exact engine and model year, so the torque figures and diagnostic steps you're following are the ones Honda actually specified for this vehicle rather than a nearby model year's approximation.

Engines covered

3.5L V6 — SOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Known issues on the 2020 Pilot. Eleven recalls are on federal record for this model year, five of them concentrated in the electronics: two separate software faults could leave the instrument panel or the rearview camera image failing to display, a faulty MOST camera cable connector could do the same, and a front passenger seat weight sensor could crack and short circuit across two separate recalls, in each case risking an unintended air bag deployment. On the mechanical side, Honda also recalled the Pilot for certification labels whose GAWR and GVWR ink could wipe away, overcured Continental tires prone to sidewall breaks and tread loss, incomplete welding at the front frame's upper members, side-view mirror glass that could detach from its heating pad, a fuel pump that can fail and stall the engine, and rear subframe corrosion that can lead to suspension component failure and loss of vehicle control. Owners have filed 480 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged for it. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

Whether you're chasing a rearview camera fault, checking the rear subframe for corrosion, or working through a routine service interval, it keeps you on Honda's exact procedure and specification for this 2020 Pilot.
