Default Factory repair manual download

Has anyone purchased this? Sounds too good to be true. 5K+ pages for $25?

I just purchased. I will give all a report when I see it. Figure $25 is no big deal and if its a fraud, I will contest it.

If you pay with Paypal, there is very little risk...

Are they mailing the PDF on a disc or is it a download?

I bought one as well.

It's a download.

It looks pretty good.

I am not very impressed. Lots of data but and real detail and steps seems to require a link to Mitchell eauto repair ... which has a fee .... I might be missing something but I don't think so ..... since there are over 5k pages there might be something really worthwhile in there .... but a quick look has not impressed me....

The links don't work because it's not a live document but the information is in the .pdf document.... just have to do a few searches.

Decent images, worth the $25, but I would supplement with PIWIS for difficult jobs.

Is it the actual Porsche workshop manual?

Thanks

It's a Mitchell Repair manual printed and saved in .pdf format.

I'm not sure who makes the official Porsche shop manual but what I've seen it will get the job done.

Good directions on how to disassemble practically the entire car.

The links don't work but if you search by the number by the link you can usually find it pretty quick in the document.
