Q: I see there is a lot of swearing allowed on this forum.
A: We do permit swearing on the forum, this forum is adult based, however we don't condone swearing innappropriatly to each other.
Q: I have become a member but I am still unable to download the service manuals, i thought they were free?
A: We unfortunatly get a lot of members who sign up just for the service manuals downloads. We are a free community but you need a minimum post count to have access to the downloads. Each download requires bandwidth and if everyone just downloaded them then this could cost the club money so we only offer the downloads to users who have been with us for a while.
