Question Where to get an owner's manual?

Hi folks,

I bought my Camaro technically "used" (dealer bought it from another dealer that went under). They didn't have the owner's manual for some reason.

I went to my local dealership, and they told me the price for it was $80 (CAD)!!!

For an owner's manual?!? You've got to be kidding me, it's a glorified book!

So my question is, does anyone know where I can get a manual that will be reasonably priced?

Thanks!

Yea, I had the same problem. If you call Chevrolet customer service and tell them what's going on they will chew out your dealer and get you one for free. Takes like all of 20 minutes on the phone and it saves you $80

Is there an updated manual for the 2011 that has corrections from the 2010 version?

-No backup alert lights
-Amount of the MP3s the PDIM can index

Its not used unless another buyer took title transfer and then returned or sold the car back. Dealers transfer 'new' cars all the time. You paperwork should indicate if it is new or not.

I bought a G6 with 3000 miles (it had been a service dept loaner car) that was still a new car. I got the full new car warranty, one year of onstar, etc.

If it was a new car sale, make the dealer provide the manual. If it really was sold as 'used' then you'll need to get your own.

Wow, thanks for the help guys! This forum really does know everything!

It really was used, there had to be an ownership transfer.

Cheers!
