Toyota Tech Info Downloads Question

Feb 14, 2004 11 Replies

Hello,



A while back, somebody posted a link to where one could go and download, for a fee per day, tech info on Toyota cars/trucks. I believe it was a Toyota site. I cannot find it. Please help.



Thanks RG


I think this is what you are talking about:

You're welcome. Good luck with your data search.

Yes... at $10 a day, $50 per month, or $350 per year.

Yes, it is at

Be warned, you may have problems if you have the wrong version of Adobe Reader (use 5.0 or 5.05 -- not 6), a slow processor, or W98 (instead of W98SE). Read the system requirements: my system did not meet the requirements (I had a 366MHz processor and W98) and I could not get it to work, so I had to use somebody elses PC (the Library). Their tech help was very responsive, but only on a weekday. Sign up early in the day and you'll get almost 1-1/2 days for the price of one. With DSL or cable modem you could probably download the entire service manual for one car in a couple of hours (note: you would have to do it topic by topic). Was $10 for a day when I used it. Must go back sometime.

As a Toyota tech, I get a free membership (plastic card). Some techs have actually sold thiers on ebay. I seen one go for $50! Crazy and seems it may be unethical.

Both manuals run about $350. Have a good dealer they will give you a picture out of the books for anything you want (to do) copy, free.

Hi,

I just had a look at this site and have a question for those who have used it.

With a cable connection it's possible to download a lot of info in one day. Would I be able to download the full manuals for my 2001 Tundra for the 1 time daily fee?

I mean 10 bucks instead 350.00 x 2 sounds to good to be true. It appears that most are pdf's which is no big deal. For 10 bucks I'll probably jump in there and check it out anyway but I thought I'd look for some feedback.

Gracias

I got everything I wanted for my Tacoma in about three hours, and that was just flipping back and forth while I was working on other things. There should be no problem. If you're worried, subscribe on a Saturday and just sit there and download like a whirlwind.
