So….I have ordered a complete service manual for HHR on CD for 20.00. Suppose to be same manual as chevy dealer use.
Ill see when it get here I guess

 

I bet it covers 2006 and is the same one you can get for free with a little searching.

 

I’ve got the 2006 one on CD

 

I have in pdf. For free.
Here it is from GoOgle first result: https://www.onlymanuals.com/chevrolet/hhr
A little more digging will find Mitchell OnDemand and AllData for free.

Those CDs on ebay are ripoffs. You are paying $20 for a $0.10 blank CD. Technically stolen copyright, if you care about that.
The 2006 version is pretty serviceable if you know what you are looking at. The 2.2L has a unique ignition system, 2009-2011 2.2L are close enough to 2006 2.4L. A couple of the wire harnesses a slightly different.

 

May all be true….but if it is a viable manual on cd…be worth 20.00 to me not to have to look when need it. If it is a bootleg copy…be pretty brazen being on ebay

 

Helm inc is the only copyright owner for GM manuals. Ebay does not control content. The 2006 Shop Manual has been floating around since 2005. Many bootleggers have sold the manual on CD, it is very easy to burn PDFs to a CD. The entire manual is less than 700 MB, very easy to store on a HD or USB thumb drive. Nobody uses CD anymore, can't get a new computer with a CD/DVD drive.

The bad thing about the CD that is generally sold is that it was made with an early version of PDF that is not searchable. Maybe, somebody has made a better version now.

 

I’ve not been able to use it even to just read it for fun, since our MacBook doesn’t have a a CD player, same with our IPads

 

I bought a bootleg copy of Mitchell on Demand which is a 13 DVD set. I paid $250. Was told it was legit. He lied. That was in 2000.
eBay did ZERO about it. Mitchell though went after them.

 

I got that for free. DVD edition up to 2012 when they went to all online.
