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.

Excellent. Now I can actually start working on my cars again with confidence. YouTube videos really are inadequate.

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.

I didn’t realize I would have a link in an email to click to get another email with another link to download.

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.

Pull a specification out of this 2012 Scion xB service and repair manual and it is the one issued for this exact year, engine and trim — the 2.4L l4 (2AZ-FE) — not a value borrowed from an adjacent model year that happens to share the same body.

Engines

  • 2.4L l4 GAS Naturally Aspirated

Trims

  • Automatic Trans
  • Standard Trans

Known issues on the 2012 xB. Four recalls are on federal record for this model year. One covers the hydraulic service brakes: TRD brake kits sold as an optional accessory, part numbers PTR09-21111 and PTR09-52080, contain hoses that may fatigue and fail over time, and failure of a brake hose will reduce braking performance and increase the risk of a crash. The other three all concern the passenger-side frontal air bag inflator module. Two describe an inflator explosion that may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants, resulting in serious injury or death — one of those two covering vehicles whose frontal air bag inflators had already been replaced under a prior recall using inflators of the same design. The third describes an inflator rupture that may result in metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants, again with the risk of serious injury or death. Owners have filed 57 complaints for the year and Scion has issued 55 technical service bulletins. The diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

A brake hose inspection, an air bag inflator replacement or a routine service interval on the 2AZ-FE each run on the OEM procedure and the published values for this 2012 xB.

No active recalls The 2012 Scion xB has no recalls on file with NHTSA.
No service bulletins No technical service bulletins on file with NHTSA for the 2012 Scion xB.
