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

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 sold the 2005 4Runner as a body-on-frame SUV with two quite different powerplants: the 4.0L V6 (1GR-FE) and the 4.7L V8 (2UZ-FE). Output, fluid capacities and service intervals differ between the two, so a figure quoted for the V6 is genuinely the V6 figure and the V8 carries its own values, with nothing borrowed from the engine next to it or from an adjacent 4Runner model year.

Engines

  • 4.0L 4000CC V6 GAS DOHC Naturally Aspirated
  • 4.7L 4663CC V8 GAS DOHC Naturally Aspirated

Known issues on the 2005 4Runner. Five recalls are on federal record for this model year. One covers the accelerator pedal, which can stick open: a stuck open accelerator pedal may result in very high vehicle speeds and make it difficult to stop. A second covers the side curtain-shield air bags, which can deploy unexpectedly, increasing the risk of occupant injury. A third covers the front seat heater assembly, where a damaged copper strand heating element may short circuit, increasing the risk of a fire. The remaining two are labeling recalls against Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 110, "Tire Selection and Rims": on one the label does not meet the standard requirements, and on the other a driver may overload a vehicle, which may increase the risk of a crash. Owners have filed 553 complaints against the 2005 4Runner and Toyota has issued 88 technical service bulletins covering it.

Whether the job is a throttle and pedal inspection, an air bag or seat heater circuit fault, or a routine fluid and filter service, the work follows Toyota's own procedure and the correct specification for the 2005 4Runner.
