2008 Repair Manual

[niclaw107]

Does anybody know where I can find the repair manual for a 2008 Grand Prix (Base)? I do not have the time to post 50 times on GPONNA. The Haynes Manuals are also garbage. Please help!

Whats wrong with the Haynes manual? What exactly are you looking for in a repair manual?

And welcome, Im not far from you I live right behind Franklin Mills Mall. What part of Philly are you from?

Haynes manuals are garbage. My dad had one for his Toyota pickup. I was trying to put an aftermarket head unit in it so I pulled the Haynes manual out to verify how to pull the dash trim. The section said "remove dash bezel"

I ended up figuring it out on my own, but it wasn't as simple as "remove dash bezel." They are generic and really not good for anything but kindling.

I live in KOP. I am going to replace the secondary air check valve and air pump in an attempt to clear a check engine light(P0411). I had a mechanic clear the code for me and it came back on the next day. There actually is no Haynes Manual for a 2008 GP and the manuals I did look at, did not cover that topic. Since my car now has over 100k I figure a service manual would be quite useful. Thanks!

Perhaps you could sign up for an ALLDATA account on your vehicle, I know they sell them for a decent price and its something thats either 1 yearly payment or a 3 year thing. Might be something you can look into.

I can mail you that service info if that's all you need. But with that code and year I would take a look at the AIR relay, sometimes they are facing upside down and have a tendency to collect water in the connector. It is around the left side diagonal brace under the hood. If it is dry you are probably looking at just the check valve. But let me know if you want that service info

I have a copy of the official gm repair manuals for sale. When I bought them I got mailed two copies by accident.

Hopefully it stops snowing so I can check the relay later today. I checked the air pump fuse which was located in the fuse box and but did not realize there was a relay as well located outside the fuse box. Can you please see that service info? Thanks for all of your help!
