Technical Service Bulletins (TSB) - Bulletins are issued by auto manufacturers for the dealer service departments. Technical Service Bulletins describe some common problems with a certain model vehicle and the proper way to repair such problems.

Your car doesn't start or has some other intermittent problem and the dealer "could not duplicate"? - You may want to check Technical Service Bulletins for your vehicle, may be it's known problem and the manufacturer knows how to fix it. Planning to repair your vehicle yourself? - again, it's worth to check the Technical Service Bulletins first. Just as an example, a friend of mine had annoying "ticking" or "rattling" noise in his SUV, that happened only under certain condition. The dealer "could not duplicate". We checked the TSBs and found that this was known problem and there was simple solution to install few new felt pieces under the plastic panel, which was done in minutes, and the problem was gone.
Another advantage checking for Technical Service Bulletins for your car is that in some cases you may find out that the repair might be actually covered by manufacturer, which possibly can save you some money. It's also a lot easier to deal with a dealer's service department when you can back up you repair claim by presenting a copy of TSB related to the problem you are having with your car.

In addition, you can find a lot more information about your car at this website, such as the VIN information, description of acronyms used, conversion tables, how to reset "maintenance required" or "change oil" light, etc. Again, here is the link:
