2010 Scion tC Service and Repair Manual

Everything in this service and repair manual is scoped to the 2010 Scion tC as it was built — the 2.4L four (2AZ-FE), the transmission your car left with, and the trim on its build sheet — so the clearances, torque figures and service intervals you work to are the ones Scion published for this year, not numbers carried over from an adjacent one.

Engines

Known issues on the 2010 tC. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year, both of them labeling compliance actions. The first, from Southeast Toyota, covers certain 2005-2011 passenger vehicles that fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 110, "Tire Selection and Rims"; a driver may overload a vehicle, which may increase the risk of a crash. The second, from Gulf States Toyota, covers certain 2005-2010 vehicles for failing to comply with that same standard. Owners have filed 24 complaints for the year and Scion has issued 39 technical service bulletins. The specifications and the diagnostic and repair procedures behind the systems those complaints and bulletins point to are here.

Whether you are verifying tire and wheel specifications against what the label claims, tracing a fault a bulletin already documents, or working a scheduled service on the 2AZ-FE, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct figure for your 2010 tC.
