For those that service their own cars

These are what I use when I service My 2012 TL.
I actually created them from the service manual to act as a quick guide for the repairs and services I do myself. I got sick of flipping through thousands of pages to find the services i do regularly. Im a graphic Designer so I put my skills to use and created these helpful Quick Reference, Assistive Repair Sheets.
Feel free to check them out. Please note, this is specifically my car, a 2012 TL Advance. This is not to serve as a. repair/service manual. This is for my own personal use but wanted to share to show off my design skills. Let me know your thoughts.

Looks pretty good! One suggestion I have is to update from "Breaks" to "Brakes" as the latter is correct. Photos are always great like the bumpers one in attracting more folks attention.

They look great. You should market them to dealerships or shops.

Converted to PDF for anyone who might want/need that format

See the download available in PDF format.

Phil, thanks for the originals, I thought I'd add another option for people to use.

Thanks for the PDF. Will definitely be using this from now on instead of shifting through every page in the service manual.
