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.

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.

Coverage on this one is pinned to the 2011 Lexus RX 350 as Lexus built it that year, down to the 3.5L V6 (2GR-FE) and whichever of the two drivetrains it left the line with, so the clearances, torque sequences and service intervals you work to are the published ones for this car rather than figures carried over from an adjacent RX model year.

Known issues on the 2011 RX 350. One recall is on federal record for this model year, and it covers the hydraulic service brakes on certain 2011 RX 350s manufactured from August 30, 2010 through May 18, 2011 and equipped with Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management: the calibration for the hydraulic control valves is incorrect, so there is a possibility that the right front wheel may not be controlled properly during ABS or VSC actuation, which could result in increased stopping distances and/or a failure to adequately correct a vehicle slide, and could increase the risk of a vehicle crash. Owners have filed 54 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins have been issued. The diagnostic and repair procedures behind the brake, ABS and stability control systems are here.

Whether you are bleeding the brakes, chasing an ABS or VSC fault, or working through a routine service interval, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2011 RX 350.

NHTSA #11V37700026/07/2011Component: SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

TOYOTA IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2011 LEXUS RX350 PASSENGER CARS MANUFACTURED FROM AUGUST 30, 2010, THROUGH MAY 18, 2011, AND EQUIPPED WITH VEHICLE DYNAMICS INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT (VDIM). THE CALIBRATION FOR THE HYDRAULIC CONTROL VALVES IS INCORRECT. DUE TO THIS CONDITION, THERE IS A POSSIBILITY THAT THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL MAY NOT BE CONTROLLED PROPERLY DURING ABS (ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM) OR VSC (VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL) ACTUATION.

Consequence

THIS COULD RESULT IN INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCES AND/OR A FAILURE TO ADEQUATELY CORRECT A VEHICLE SLIDE, WHICH COULD INCREASE THE RISK OF A VEHICLE CRASH.

Remedy

DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE BRAKE ACTUATOR WITH A NEW ONE, FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON SEPTEMBER 8, 2011. OWNERS MAY CONTACT TOYOTA AT 1-800-331-4331.
