Service Manuals
Service manuals contain diagnosis and repair information for
a l l
chassis and body systems. They may be useful for owners
who wish to get a greater understanding of their vehicle.
They are also useful for owners with the appropriate skill
level or training who wish to perform "do-it-yourself"
service. These are authentic General Motors service manuals
meant for professional, qualified technicians.
In some cases
they refer to specialized tools, equipment and safety
procedures necessary to service the vehicle.
Service Bulletins
Service bulletins covering various subjects are regularly
sent to all General Motors dealerships/retail facilities.
GM monitors product performance
in
the field. When
service methods are found which promote better service
on GM vehicles, bulletins are created to help the
technician perform better service. Service bulletins may
involve any number of vehicles. Some will describe
inexpensive service, others will describe expensive
service. Some will advise new or unexpected conditions?
and others may help avoid future costly repairs.
An
important reminder is that service bulletins are meant
for qualified technicians. Since these bulletins are issued
throughout the model year and beyond, an index
is
required and published quarterly to help identify specific
bulletins. Subscriptions are available. You can order an
index at the toll-free numbers listed previously, or ask a
GM dealer to see an index or individual bulletin.
Owner Publications
Owner's manuals, warranty folders and various owner
assistance booklets provide owners with general
operation and maintenance information.
