LR3 Manual Set Download
2/24/13 - Because some other links closed off, I found this one from the Cubby cloud sharing service - You have to dig a bit to get down to wiring diagrams LR3 Training\Data\Manuals\LR3.
https://www.cubby.com/p/_fea250a5711...orkshop+manual
No longer working: Found this resource, and downloaded the whole manual package, owners, shop, infotainment, training, wiring, etc. About 495 megabytes. Free download is very slow, like four hours, so set overnight. Can pay for higher speed. Attached is a sample of one section on cooling system.
Download PDF Land Rover Discovery 3 - LR3 - Workshop Manual | PDFTown.com
Also noticed some of this appears on eBay for $20 or less.
Also update - the PDFTown link may no longer work 2/1/2013

Oh I got this already, thanks for offering to others. Would like to figure out a way to get it on our site, it is very complete and even includes training materials for technicians. You mentioned bandwidth issues on another post and I respect those. Of course being copywrited material this is for academic use.

I have asked DM to check with our host to see if it can be posted here somewhere. My copy is all pdf, about 450 meg. If there is a particular area people want I am glad to post that. I don't know who was the poster on the other site.

There's no way it can be legally posted here without explicit permission to do so from the copyright owners. The forum owners would be complete fools to allow it without that permission.

Well perhaps for academic use. But sites have lawyers to keep them away from trouble, not go fishing for it. Rover may not go after the D1 ECU manual. But the LR3 is still a more current item.
Our site seems to have a 2 meg pdf limit (despite the 2GB label). For those that want to see what is in the LR3 manual here are some selections:

Wouldn't matter. You can't put a complete copyrighted manual on a web site and just label it "For academic use" and it be ok. That's like places selling HID conversion kits and labeling them "for off-road use only" thinking they skirt the law that way.
The academic fair use is for using excerpts for review or inclusion a paper or such. Even then, the DMCA put some restrictions on that and they actually tried to completely eliminate all "fair use" when the music/movie, etc. companies were writing the law.

The academic fair use is for using excerpts for review or inclusion a paper or such. Even then, the DMCA put some restrictions on that and they actually tried to completely eliminate all "fair use" when the music/movie, etc. companies were writing the law.
Fair use is a concept embedded in U.S. law that recognizes that certain uses of copyright-protected works do not require permission from the copyright holder or its agent. These include instances of minimal use that do not interfere with the copyright holder's exclusive rights to reproduce and reuse the work.
Fair use is not an exception to copyright compliance; it is more of a "legal defense." That is, if you copy and share a copyright-protected work and the copyright holder claims copyright infringement, you may be able to assert a defense of fair use which you would then have to prove.
Fair use is primarily intended to allow the use of copyright-protected works for commentary, parody, news reporting, research and education. However, not all uses in an academic context are automatically considered fair use.

I suppose then the current "legal" method would be to pay for a Rover Topix subscription for a week or so, and download all you need in a short period.
Would I have legal exposure if a person sent me a USB drive, with prepaid retun mailer, and I loaded the file on there. No money changes hands. I don't get higher fees for my consulting job. Of course they have to trust me to return their file and hope that my anti-virus is up to date.
I've already got a $350 hour attorney, and don't want to add another....
