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.

This service and repair manual is written to the 2006 xA as Scion built it, around the 1.5L four-cylinder (1NZ-FE) and the trim on your car, so the clearances, torque figures and diagnostic routines it gives are the ones that apply here rather than values carried across from an adjacent model year on the assumption they still fit.

Engines

  • 1.5L l4 GAS Naturally Aspirated

Trims

  • Automatic
  • Standard

Known issues on the 2006 xA. Six recalls are on federal record for this model year. One covers the air bag control module for the supplemental restraint system, which may experience an internal short, possibly causing the air bags to unintentionally deploy or become deactivated: if the air bags and/or seat belt pretensioners unintentionally deploy, it can increase the risk of a crash, and if they are deactivated, it can increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash. Two more cover load carrying capacity modification labels that were missing or incorrect, so a driver may overload the vehicle, which may increase the risk of a crash. The last three cover Rostra speed controls installed on certain Gulf States Toyota and Southeast Toyota vehicles, where the throttle may not return to idle the first time the on/off switch is pressed; failure to release the throttle when the cruise control is turned off could result in a crash. Owners have filed 95 complaints for the year and Scion has issued 20 technical service bulletins. The diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

From the supplemental restraint system to a cruise control fault or a scheduled service interval, it keeps you on the manufacturer procedure and the right specification for your 2006 xA.

No active recalls The 2006 Scion xA has no recalls on file with NHTSA.
No service bulletins No technical service bulletins on file with NHTSA for the 2006 Scion xA.
