Service Manuals
Service manuals contain diagnosis and repair
information for all 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.
Service Bulletins
Service bulletins covering various subjects are regdarly
sent to all General Motors dealerships.
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. Service bulletins
are meant for q~lalif'ied technicians.
In some cases they
refer
to specialized tools, equipment and safety
procedures necessary to service the vehicle. 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/retailer 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.
