4runner service manual

Hello

I don't have a 4runner, but one of the questions I have as I'm thinking of buying one is access to the service manual.

I have a 2010 civic and the manual is a PDF I downloaded somehwere. It's not great but it's manageable. My wife's 2010 Flex has a massive 2-volume paper manual I bought from ebay, which I like more than any computerised manual I've seen. My mom's 2016 civic has an online-only manual, only accessible with a subscription, which makes it very expensive and very difficult to use.

What can you get for the 4runner? Are paper manuals a thing of the past? Can you pay for a one-time download? Or is it like the Honda where you pay per day for a subscription?

Thanks in advance.

 

That's a great question and one I was wondering the other day. Every new vehicle I've owned, I've bought the service manual and schematics. I've tried to find them for my brand new, beautiful, Nautical Blue '20 Offroad and have had no luck with online searches. I might call the parts desk at my dealer and see if a hardcopy FSM is available. Download is nice, but a thick service manual on my workbench is a lot easier for reference.

 

I love old fashioned paper service manuals but haven’t used one in 30 years.

 

Google this exact string of characters TOYOTA_2016-2019_4Runner_Repair_Manual_RM27F0U and do as the OP says, seriously, do as the OP says.

 

Neither Toyota, nor any 3rd party offer printed 4Runner manuals any longer. If they'd been available, I'd have bought them as that's what I prefer also.

Thank you! It's over 6000 pages so that must mean it's everything

p.s. I don't know what I said that you're talking about

 

Nothing you said, what the OP of the linked post says, sorry for the confusion. My bad, I should have been more specific. Mea Culpa
