Well let's see, if it saves you even 30 minutes of dealer service tech time (oil change) then you got a 200% return on your investment or the equivalent of putting your $20 bucks in a savings account for 400 years.

Suggestion
In some cases it doesn't have some info but between the hardcover book and the alldata (which I primarily use), I never touch the pdf's anymore.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Like many of us, I have been looking for an affordable service manual for my 996.
Have any of you downloaded this product?
http://www.tradebit.com/filedetail.p...-repair-manual
The twenty bucks sounds good. However, I thought I would get some input from forum members who might already have purchased this download.
Thanks.
I've gotten my manuals from here in the past:
http://www.papertownspdf.com/downloa...ual-1998-2005/
been using that 996 manual for the past few years. hope this helps.
If you search you can get the manual for free. Is it worth 20 bucks? Well let's see, if it saves you even 30 minutes of dealer service tech time (oil change) then you got a 200% return on your investment or the equivalent of putting your $20 bucks in a savings account for 400 years.
Hello,
I am French and I have downloaded your manual Porsche 996, but to translate it in French, I need the password ... Have you?
If you can give it to me, I'd be delighted.
I thank you in advance

I have downloaded pdf manuals but I found the Bentley hardcover is well worth the extra money. I also subscribed recently to alldatadiy.com which I like even more. The latter is $50 for a 5 year subscription but the navigation is what really sold me on this. It does have its limitations. In some cases it doesn't have some info but between the hardcover book and the alldata (which I primarily use), I never touch the pdf's anymore. Also, the alldata allows you to add additional vehicles for $35 for 5 years so I added all my other cars.
