Default '06 Service Manuals?

Hi Ken,

Any idea when the Service Manuals for the C6's will be delivered?

Thanks,
Don

Here is the latest from GM and Helm

The manuals are at the printer finally!! My contact with GM/Helm tells me they are supposed to have them from the printer by mid April and will then ship. I have had a pallet load of them on order since last Sept. and they tell me I'm the first shipment out. IF THEY DON'T CHANGE THIS ON US AGAIN, I hope to be shipping off to you by the end of this month. GM has delayed delivery of the manuals to the printer three times this spring. The tardiness of the manual availability seems to be getting worse each year.

As soon as I hear anything different from above or the manuals actualy do come in I will post here on the forum.

Thanks for the update.
It’s pretty sad that the 2007 C6's are only a few months away yet the 2006 manual isn’t available yet from GM.

Hi Bob,

Rumor has it the '06 manuals are in circulation. Have an update for us?

Thanks,
Don

I'm still waiting too

There’s a thread over in the General Discussion area that says they’re available now.

I have talked to GM/Helm and the manuals are in transit to me. As soon as they show we will start shipping back out to all of you who have ordered. I am hoping to have everyones shipped out by sometime next week.

Hello!

The manuals have arrived...a truck load of them!

We are packaging and shipping as fast as we can.

The price is $131.45 with S/H

NOTE:
SpongeBob is on vacation on a cruise with his bride! Thanks to the hard work, sharp pricing, great customer service and thanks to each of you for your business, Bob won the national GM parts trip!!

Tom is going to do his best to keep up with your phone calls and getting the shipments out for the next week. So, please be patient with us!

I will assist him as I can but I am short handed all over the dealership with employees on vacation.

Have a great week,
Ken Fichtner
