Just wondering if the 2005 Mustang service manual is available to purchase through Ford. I had one for a previous vehicle and it was a great source for detailed information.

I have a genuine Ford service manual as well, it is a great source of information. I'll probably get one soon after I get my car.

Where might one go about picking up said Service Manual?

I had one for my Probe (actually the previous owner had one: it came with the car) and it was infinitely valuable for doing things the first time (stink as oil filter changes, brake system replacement...anything).

Saves tons when you can order the parts for 60 bucks rather than pay 400 for the guys to take care of it (unless its a warranty issue... )

it came with the car.

there are areas inside to note each service when you take it in. it's in that nifty book thing with the owners manual and quickstart guide.

I'm waiting for the cd version to show up on ebay. I bought a 2000 Lincoln service manual cd there last year for like $10.00 and it had everything the original service manuals had and it also covered every 2000 vehicle that Lincoln made.

Are you saying that a full Service Manual came with your '05?

I'm thinkin' he was referring to the service schedule in the manual, Tom... I don't know that anybody ever bought a car from a dealer that came with the $80 shop manual.... unless it was left in there by a service tech. Good books, though.... well worth the price over a friggin' Chilton's/Haynes. Anything that is too tough for their editors to do themselves, they just refer you to your local service shop. IDIOTS.... that's why I bought the manual in the first place.... so I can do it myself.
