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.

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.

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.

Toyota built the 1996 Corolla around two four-cylinders, the 1.6L 4A-FE and the 1.8L 7A-FE, and this factory service and repair manual is keyed to whichever one sits in your car along with its year and trim, so the clearances, torque values and order of operations you work to came from Toyota for this exact vehicle instead of being approximated from a nearby year or a different engine.

Engines

  • 1.6L 1587CC l4 GAS Naturally Aspirated
  • 1.8L 1762CC l4 GAS DOHC Naturally Aspirated

Known issues on the 1996 Corolla. Four recalls sit on the federal record for this model year, and every one of them covers aftermarket parts sold for the car rather than components fitted on the assembly line. Three concern exterior lighting. K2 Motor recalled aftermarket headlamps that were missing the amber side reflex reflector; without those reflectors, the lighting visibility may be affected. DOPE, Inc. recalled combination corner and bumper lamp assemblies sold as aftermarket equipment, where decreased lighting visibility may result in a vehicle crash, and SaberSport recalled the same style of corner and bumper lamp assemblies for the same consequence. The fourth is suspension: Ride Control recalled certain front strut mounts branded as Gabriel Ride Control or ArvinMeritor and sold as replacement equipment, because the absence of the weld can allow the strut to come out of its mounting position. Owners have filed 151 complaints for the year and Toyota has issued 24 technical service bulletins. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

From tracing an exterior lighting fault back through the harness to inspecting the front strut mounts after a suspension parts swap, it holds you to Toyota's own procedure and the right specification for your 1996 Corolla and its engine.
