If you are "old school" (like me) who prefer a printed factory version, you can buy it at Helm, Inc. for most GM, Ford and other brands (including imports). Here is the list of manuals for the Volt (all years): http://www.helminc.com/helm/Result....r=&Category=&Keyword=&Module=&selected_media=
Keep this web site as a future reference for other manuals.
If I get my Volt back I will buy this book. I am just trying to understand why the Dealer is having such a hard time repairing this car. It seems fairly simple to grasp.
Thanks again everyone!
Hi, I am new to the forum. I need to replace a parking sensor in the front bumper.
Dealer wanted $475 and said bumper cover needed to be removed.
Any luck on that manual link? I could really use it.
Thanks, Jerry
Welcome to the forum. Although this is an Opel Ampera service manual for 2012 it might help you find what you are looking for. It's a huge PDF file so it's going to take a little while to download.
Yep, PDF search is nice, any DTC, diagnostic trouble code, can be found with a word search. This is an very useful for those who like to diagnose and repair problems. I can see why service techs are highly trained and paid well and then there's all the expensive electronic test equipment.... even so, a lot can be learned from a simple OBDII adapter with DTC app like Torque.
Steverino - nothing malicious has showed up yet, I just scanned it with Norton 360 and its clean.
If you are going to put an infected PDF out on the net for nefarious reasons, it isn't going to be a service manual for a 2012 Ampera. You'd infect a file explaining Justin Bieber's strange bedroom habits.
Although I understand that PDF files can be infected so can any number of other file types we download everyday. Not just for PDFs but for your entire computer health you need to have an up to date antivirus and make sure your viewers, PDF, GIF or Excel files are up to date as well.
I've had this file locally for a year now and never had an issue. I could upload it to this server if the moderators give the okay, it is a 70 meg file after all. If you need it, go get it and save it for future use but always be cautious when downloading any file from the net.
Super old thread, but incase anyone stumbles across this result on google, you can pick up printed copies of the FSM or Factory Service Manual for the Volts on ebay going for several hundred bucks of course, but absolutely topped to the brim with tech data.
