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.

The 2013 Toyota Tacoma was sold with two engines, and which one is in the bay changes the numbers you work to: the 2.7L four-cylinder (2TR-FE) or the 4.0L V6 (1GR-FE). Torque sequences, clearances and service intervals are specified per engine and per cab and drivetrain layout, so the figures that matter are the ones Toyota published for this truck and this model year rather than close-enough values carried over from a neighboring one.

Known issues on the 2013 Tacoma. Five recalls are on federal record for this model year. One is filed against the engine: if the valve springs break, the engine could fail and stall while the vehicle is being driven. A second covers the hydraulic service brakes together with their antilock and traction control functions; if the fault occurs, these systems could become inoperative, reducing the directional control assistance. A third concerns the temporary spare tire on trucks equipped with 18-inch Maverick alloy wheels: if the spare tire and wheel are installed using the lug nuts from another wheel, damage can result. A fourth is a labeling recall — an inaccurate label could lead to owners overloading their vehicles and tires. The fifth covers accessory hood scoops installed by Southeast Toyota Distributors or its dealers: if the hood scoop detaches, it may become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash. Owners have filed 169 complaints for this truck, and 213 technical service bulletins have been issued for it.

Whether the job is a stall traced back to the valve train, a brake and traction control warning that needs diagnosing, or a routine service on the four-cylinder, the procedure and the torque figure you follow are the ones Toyota wrote for the 2013 Tacoma.
