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 wrote this factory service and repair manual against the 2004 Matrix as it left the line, down to the 1.8L four (engine codes 1ZZ-FE and 2ZZGE) and the exact trim you own, so the clearances and torque values you work to are the ones published for this car and not figures borrowed from the model years on either side of it.

Known issues on the 2004 Matrix. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year, and both are exterior lighting recalls on lamps sold for the car as replacement or aftermarket equipment. The first is an exterior lighting recall on headlights: it covers certain ANZO combination headlamp assemblies sold as replacement lamps for use on certain passenger vehicles, some of which are not equipped with amber side reflectors, and without the amber reflectors the vehicle will be poorly illuminated. The second is an exterior lighting recall covering 16,270 SaberSport combination corner and bumper lamp assemblies of various part numbers sold for use as aftermarket equipment for various passenger vehicles, where decreased lighting visibility may result in a vehicle crash. Owners have filed 175 complaints for the year, and Toyota has issued 77 technical service bulletins.

From tracing an exterior lighting circuit after a lamp swap to a scheduled service on the 1.8L four, it keeps you on Toyota's own procedure and the correct figure for this 2004 Matrix.
