You are misleading him.
Why would he go to that site? The repair manual is on this site and in a much better format. There are many manuals here.
Download to your computer and read it any time you want.

That's pretty presumptuous of you.." why are you misleading him"....seems to me that my reply was sooner then yours ! I wouldn't mislead anyone. That's pretty harsh coming from someone that doesn't know me.

Secondly, That manual is for the SRT. What made you think it was SRT model ? OH, I forgot...you didn't consider...OK that explains.

I was just trying to help a fellow reader, the comment of "misleading" ...just wasn't warranted.... But thanks for your thoughts...you are ENTIRELY welcome to them...


have a good day Sir.

That post has the manuals for the na and SRT Crossfires coupes and roadsters, all the owners manuals, navigation manual, navigation CD's , TSB's, part numbers for the model years and a lot more. Pointing him to one specific site is misleading as he will miss much more useful info. The thread title is misleading and I'm sure many members have not studied it for that reason, you too I'd guess. I have pointed that out but it fell on deaf ears. It should actually be posted in the Coupe forum as it of general interest to all owners.

As to posting earlier, like sex, sooner is not necessarily better.

I'm sorry you took my post the wrong way but my intent was to direct him to a huge source of info which in the case of the repair manuals and others is readable as you would a book, accessible page by page.
