Welcome
This Workshop Manual is part of a suite of technical manuals
provided for V8 Vantage. Other technical manuals include:
• Parts manual
• OBDII Diagnostic manual
• Man hour schedules
Chapters
Each chapter in this workshop manual is associated with a 4
digit number, i.e. Transmission (07.00). Each chapter is then
further broken into sections, i.e. Automatic Transmission
(07.01).
Chapter Navigation
Example 1:
Older workshop manuals would have Steering and
Suspension together in one chapter. The structure now used
places Steering and Suspension into their own chapters.
When required references are made out to other chapters.
Page Numbering
The page numbering system used within this workshop
manual is as follows:
System, i.e. Engine system
Subsystem, i.e. Engine lubrication system
Page Number, i.e. Number within subsystem
Systems Classification Coding
Alongside the 'System' and 'Subsystem' section titles appear
codes. For example Exhaust '09.00' or Power Steering
'11.02'. These codes relate to a Corporate Product Systems
Classification (CPSC) and are designed to segregate the parts
for engineering release and organise a variety of engineering
data.
Special Tools
Where special service tools are required to perform an
operation, the tool number is recorded at the point of use
within the procedure. Where the operation of a special
service tool is complicated or not obvious, refer to Appendix
and Glossary for detailed operation procedures. A pictorial
list of special service tools available for this vehicle can also
be found in Appendix and Glossary.
Location References
References to left, right, front or rear of the vehicle or of a
component are referenced from sitting in the drivers seat
facing forward. Any such references to assemblies removed
from the vehicle are to the normal orientation of the
assembly when installed in the vehicle.
