Default uplander shop manual

Just a follow up on a question that was asked previously, regarding a workshop manual for uplander 2005 to 2009, I am still looking for a place to buy one in Canada if possible. Is there any lucky uplander owners that were able to get one, please let us know.

Ask your dealer. Do they even make printed manuals any more? I retired from the electronics repair industry and most companies (Sony, Toshiba etc) issued service manuals on CD, paper manuals were obsolete years ago.
Do you want a GM shop manual or a Haynes, Chilton manual?

I knew there was a GM manuals ( 3 books ) avaliable but the price is quite high. They come from the state and we have to pay the customs and in US founds. I have not been able to find a Yaynes manual except for the automatic transmission. These books were avaliable at Canadian Tire but I never seen any for the uplander. The prices were cheap ( under 25$ ) I gess I will have to find one on CD. The price is certainly cheaper. I have seen and add on ebay for a cd selling under 10$ Thank for your support.

I would be interested in acquiring a shop manual for my 2005, but have not seen anything in my travels through Canadian Tire or the like.

On my own, I have changed out the air filter on the engine in 10 minutes and saved about $17.00 doing so.

Oil changes [difficult to dispose old oil] and other scheduled mechanical maintenance, I let a certified GM tech look after.

I found one through the owner manual. They have a 800 number to call and they can supply the manuals for any GM cars and trucks. The price is quite high ( 150 ) plus shipping amd taxes but it is worth it. There is 3 books in this order with all the repairs you can imagine. The books are sold throug Neilms also.

Anyone have any luck on a dealer/repair manual source yet..

Only been able to find a few monthly subscription sites and the PDF on eBay are bare bones.
