Does anybody have the code that works

Try http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~sedwards/presentations/robot-car-instructions.pdf for instructions and sketch code that works well.

Can someone please upload the contents of the CD to an online repository?

Use http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~sedwards/presentations/robot-car-instructions.pdf for instructions and code. I found it worked great.

Where can I get the manual for the robot?

You should have gotten a small CD that included an example program, some short Windows word documents that explained wiring, and an assembly video when you bought the kit. I think some folks fail to realize that the video is included, since it is an .rar archive (similar to a zip file). Dallas Personal Robotic Group recently put out an alternative robot kit build video of this kit, which I believe is better. The link is https://youtu.be/d9TXThtSUNM .

The dvd which came with this kit is blank, where can i download this information?

While this kit is a great deal, there are some technical issues. The kit is a standard first robot in many robotics classes. I found http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~sedwards/presentations/robot-car-instructions.pdf to have excellent instructions for assembly. Another source is a Youtube video from the Dallas Personal Robotics group https://www.dprg.org/ There are several ways to assemble this kit. I found the kit to be a good challenge for a first step in learning about robotics. The first link is my favorite because it explains the Arduino sketch. The Dallas video uses approximately the same instructions that came with the kit, just a little more difficult to follow because it's a video. Don't give up. It took me two weeks to get it the way I wanted. Again, this kit is a good deal, it just requires some research to build.
