VZ Holy Grail workshop manual

[L2VXR]

So I've owned my monaro vxr for over 12 years and never really found a true factory workshop manual for a VZ I've scoured the intenet and posted links to everything I've ever found
Holden vt >vx factory manual
Various scanned haynes type manuals
GM parts catalogue
GM factory manuals that cover 2004 ls1 Pontiac gto. 2005 ls2 pontiac gto and GM Vauxhall vxr8 6.0 and 6.2 . But never a Holden /HSV factory manual that covers RHD Aus spec 5.7 and 6.0 VZ models...... until now :-)

There all in there Holden/HSV monaro/commodore/ Utes/ VT > VZ
Download unzip enjoy (though you may have to twiddle a few settings in adobe to ease navigating

Good find, I've also dug up the other Holden & GTO manuals you've listed there, nice to have this one as well

Downloading as we speak, thank you for using Mega.nz as well!

Many Thanks for the Link to download this mighty tome.
Which file or folder is the one to open it up.
I've been trying pot luck and am just stumbling around a lot of unnamed folders. Randomly finding unrelated sections.
I know the 05 CV8 is the VZ.

Once you unzip the folder you should find a pdf called main menu double click that and the pdf should open from then on you just click the relevant links in the pdf either i the side bar or on the pages themselves . I had to add the backward forward buttons to my toolbar in adobe and turn off the security warnings on every page ... that made it a little easier to navigate

[bigwheel]

Thanks for that.
I'll try it out tonight.

I've just downloaded the mega.nz app, who even knows if i did the right thing!!

Right click on the downloaded file and in the list should be "extract" click it and it will ask where you want to save the extracted file, its your choice but i select "desktop" then click ok
After a short time you should then have the unzipped folder on your desktop or wherever you saved it. Double click the unzipped file and it will open with two folders in it one is named somthing like MACOS ignore that one and double click the other and you should find a pdf called "main menu" double click that and the manual should open in adobe acrobat

I have done that and got main menu, but double click on VZ 2005 does not open it. And right clcking menu does not help, it says print and a few more options but nothing to help opening, any further suggestions woul be most welcome. thank you

So you've double clicked on main menu and the pdf has opened so you should have the vz option on the pdf page left click on it once and it should proceed to the next page where you click the next option by clicking on it once

Tried that and the box with 2005 and 2006 vz lights up as it is selected but after that nothing happens. Thank you for taking your time to help me, must be something Ive done wrong.

Any way have a nice Christmas and a Happy new year.

I can open the PDFs but nothing happens once the menu comes up, you can click the buttons for the menu but it doesn't do anything

[L2VXR]

Are you sure you have unzipped the downloaded file and not just exploring the zipped folder .what you are describing is what happens if the file is still compressed .

[bigmadjohn]

Once the folder has downloaded, right click on the folder and select 'extract all'. This takes about 20 minutes and once done it all works perfectly!! Thanks alot for posting this, it is truly the holy grail for these cars!!
