Uhm, Mike - you do realize that the manual is broken into 2 volumes that when stacked together are over 4 inches thick, right?

I got the same postcard. The funny thing is, they shipped me a set on 10 October. I guess that they printed a batch and sold it out a couple of times before sending the notice.

The service manual (aka shop manual) ... tells ya how to take apart, repair, & put back together the parts of your car.
We get 'em for all our vehicles.
The funny part is that my Sky is the smallest vehicle but has the biggest manual.

Not talking about anyone's "racks" here - yet

Yes it is, they have parts of the manual broke down to 2.0L and 2.4L.
I used it last weekend to install my Dejon IC-very helpful, I thought bumper had to come off

BTW
the IC is NOT the IC in book it is the air charge cooler-damn engineers always complicating things

The only real complaint I have with the service manual is the fact that you pretty much have to already know about what you are trying to look up in order to find it, and you have to be real flexible about what you call it.

I would think that the 2007 shop manuals would cover 99% of 2008 stuff. The only differance were miniscule...EXCEPT the omission of the brake booster....Skip...

They may have made some transmission gear changes but it will be for the most part the same. They may not show some of the early model wiring diagrams. The BCM is slightly different on the early 07 model .
