But as you point out, we bought a 30k car -- so why not pay the price for the workshop manuals? I don't see why they should offer them for free -- they cost money to produce. I've never had a Mfr offer the service manuals for free; I'm just glad they make them available to the customer at all. I don't find it particularly difficult to search through the service manual. It is well indexed, and boots up in less than 1 second :D |

I would like the link to the service manual .
TYVM |

I would actually buy a PDF copy of the service manual. I hate digging through books.

excerpt:
To increase the size of the left side menu first open the index.html file, then go up to "the menu bar and click VIEW -> SOURCE. A text editor window pops up and you "can make the change by going halfway down to the section that has: scrolling="no" noresize marginheight="5" marginwidth="5"> <frameset cols="250,*" border="0" framespacing="0"> <frameset rows="60,*" frameborder="no" framespacing="0"> <frame name="srvc_menu" change the frameset cols="250,*" to something larger. You only need to change the number, save it close the window and then refresh and the menu will have changed. __________________________________________________ ____________________ Or you could just put your cursor on the dividing line between sections and move it. |
I would like the link also. Thanks.
|
It's back online. Hurry up!!!
|
True Magellen rocks :cool:
|
the manual has been available from another source in a thread link on this site for long time, but the info is old and now partically inaccurate due to edits and revisions by Mazda, the newer your RX-8 is the less likely the online manual is likely to be accurate
|
how come my rx8 shop manual is 120mb and this one is only 26mb?
mine is also 1300 pages |
Wow, I just downloaded the manual and opened it up. It pretty much has the same content as the service manual that truemagellan has the link to, except that it has a sleeker navigation bar on the left (requires ActiveX). Thanks for the great find!

For 95% of tasks or more this is reliable info... -taking the car apart, any possible piece really hasn't changed much -torque settings have remained the same on almost every piece of the car except the rims (90lbs switched to 110lbs I prefer 100lbs) -removing the overhead console, the DIYs on the forum are much better...in fact I like to review both the forum DIYs and the service manual before tacking any task Most of what guys want this manual for is so they can run wires for a sub, or info on swapping the exhaust, or how to remove calipers, or whatever...they aren't using it to take the engine apart, port and polish Everyone deserves this manual, period. |
