Original 2004 Service Manuals Update

I have the original '04 service manuals, and was wondering if there is a place that collects all the updates to these manuals. Or, does anyone know just how many pages were corrected?

That's nice, I have those. But it is the corporate corrections to date that I was looking for. For instance, they had the test to check the coils wrong in the original printing.

LOL - I thought so. I wonder if the dealer could help? They must get mailers from time to time for updates.

the online manual that has been circulating since forever is a super early version that had the errors. I believe the printed copy has been corrected. You should just buy one.

I did purchase one, but back in early '04. How can I check it's accuracy?

I'm looking at buying a manual from finishline performance and wondered if it would be more accurate to buy the 2008 manual even though my car is an '04?
To get the most up to date information.

Anyone know if the '04 manual is updated each year or is the '08 manual the most up to date manual to get?

As crazy as that sounds, I think you may be right.
