Is there a place to get a Repair PDF Version or would people recommend the book? Im thinking of tackling the IMS and wouldn't mind having something like this on hand. Trying to figure out if I should go with PDF or actual book. Also where would be the best place to get either.

 

Thanks in advance.

Probably your best bet is the Bentley manual for the 996, which is in book form only.  You can also look around for a set of the factory 996 manuals, but they are expensive and harder to find as they have been out of print for many years now.  Be cautious about pdf files, they tend to be woefully incomplete and/or out of date (there were many updates to the originals over the years), plus as most are illegal copies of Porsche copyrighted intellectual properties, and subject to legal action.  This website does not condone trading in such materials.

You should look at the classified section of this website and other Porsche related sites for used ones, you can also check flea bay as well.  Amazon also sells them, but only new ones.
