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.

Item as described quick delivery

Every specification in this manual is tied to a single configuration: the 2013 Lexus RX 450h with the 3.5L V6 hybrid (2GR-FXE) in Base trim. That means the torque values, clearances and hybrid-system routines you follow are the ones Lexus published for this model year, not numbers borrowed from an adjacent year of the RX line.

Engines

  • 3.5L V6 HYBRID Naturally Aspirated

Trims

  • Base

Known issues on the 2013 RX 450h. No recalls are on federal record for the 2013 RX 450h, and Lexus has issued no technical service bulletins for the year. Owners have filed 48 complaints against it, so what turns up on this one tends to arrive as an individual fault rather than a campaign with a published fix attached. The diagnostic and repair procedures for the systems behind those faults are here.

Whether you are tracing a hybrid system fault, servicing the 2GR-FXE or working a scheduled maintenance item, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for this 2013 RX 450h.
