The download I received was a complete waste of my money. Was not even close to what it was represented as. I thought I was getting a proper service repair manual. What I got was a collection of service bulletins. I sent an email to your company right after I looked through it requesting my money back. Have yet to hear a response. Terry Muich

More detailed than I thought, still trying to navigate through it, not what I thought it would be, thought it would be more like the Haynes manual.

It was much larger than i expected. 5 documents at 12k pages each. Its not something ill actually be able read but its easy enough to find what you need..
The Ford F250 manual is much easier to navigate at just over 8000 pages.
If i spend the money for Adobe Acrobat Professional ill be able to break it down into manageable bits.
Both manuals area great value for the money.

Excellent. Now I can actually start working on my cars again with confidence. YouTube videos really are inadequate.

Schematics were not high resolution making the markings and names difficult to read when zoomed in. Improvement is needed. Otherwise it is a good document.

I wasn’t sure why I needed this to be a PDF, but it was apparent once I got it. It includes what would be thousands of pages if it were in print. The links take you to wherever you need to go in the text.

I didn’t realize I would have a link in an email to click to get another email with another link to download.

would rather have a maintenance manual. have a parts manual from parts vu company. only difference is that your parts manual has all together whereas the parts vu had to download the differsections individually.

Our original order was supposed to be for our 2014 Subaru Outback, yet the manual came up as Forester. We did have to purchase a new manual in order for them to send us the correct manual. We hope it will help us repair our Subaru.

The 1986 Toyota Celica came as a coupe or a hatchback in GT, GT-S and ST form, built around the 2.0L 1998CC four (3S-GEC). This factory service and repair manual is pinned to the car as Toyota built it that single model year, so the clearances, torque figures and repair sequences you work to are the ones Toyota published for this Celica and not values carried over from a neighboring model year.

Known issues on the 1986 Celica. One recall is on federal record for this model year, and it is a suspension recall that reaches the car through replacement parts: Ride Control recalled certain front strut mounts branded as Gabriel Ride Control or ArvinMeritor, part numbers 142435, 142193, 142305 and 142303, sold as replacement equipment for these vehicles. Per the recall, the absence of the weld can allow the strut to come out of its mounting position. Owners have registered 9 complaints against the 1986 Celica, and 7 technical service bulletins are on record for it.

Whether the job is a front strut mount inspection, a fault one of those bulletins already documents, or a routine service interval on a GT-S, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your 1986 Celica.
