What is this collection
A large, curated library of Volkswagen Group Self Study Program (SSP) manuals in PDF. These factory training guides explain how systems work on VW, Audi, Škoda and SEAT vehicles — from engine management and transmissions to CAN data bus, safety, HVAC, chassis and body. Ideal for technicians, tuners, diagnosticians and trainers who need deep system knowledge straight from OEM training.

Why it’s useful

• Explains how systems operate (not just repair steps) — perfect for diagnostics and root-cause analysis.
• OEM diagrams, cutaways and signal descriptions for building your own test plans and oscilloscope strategies.
• Cross-model learning: compare generations (e.g., DSG variants, TDI evolutions, CAN topologies).

What you get

• Hundreds of bookmarked PDFs with searchable text and crisp illustrations.
• Topics include: engines, transmissions, electrical networks, HVAC, chassis, safety, body, emissions/OBD, special tools/workbooks and model-specific design & function.
• Examples from the set (file names visible in the pack): Passat W8 engine management, 02E DSG design & function, 09G/09D automatic, Touareg body & HVAC, CAN data bus, e-Golf heat pump, Tiguan electrical, ODIS workbook, wiring harness repair, etc.

How to use

• Study a system SSP before diagnostics to understand normal operation and signal paths.
• Print key pages (signal tables, connector views, hydraulic/cooling schematics) for bay reference.
• Combine with workshop manuals/wiring to create step-by-step fault trees.

File format & compatibility

• PDF — searchable, printable, with bookmarks (where available). Opens on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS and Android using any modern PDF reader.

Minimum system requirements

• PDF reader application
• CPU 1.0 GHz or better, 1 GB RAM+
