You make a good point. Unfortunately, the wording in the S2RB predates the
complicated situation we now have. Who determines "normal" service manual
collection..? I think of the "service manual" as including all publications
required to repair or service the car, and that would include OBD II on current
cars. I think if it's protested, it would be up to the protestee to have it or
have access to it. I can see the possibility of protest committees allowing a
protestee some time to come up with documentation...
