Default Repair manual

Does anyone know what the price to get a repair manual is for our xA's?

At the top of this page go to "features" - "tech" - then choose your manual. Nice people here have given one to you for FREE! Just print the stuff you want and take it to the shop to get it greasy. Thats my 2 cents...now I'm missing more sence

I already checked there. You can view 5 pages for free a day. Unless you want to shell out $100 to be a premium member for a year or $10 for a month. I would rather have a hard print manual that I can look at any time I like.

I kind of wanted to browse through all the pages. If I need info for a certain mod I know that there are many users on this site that could help me. I just thought it would be nice to be able to look at all the information about my car whenever I feel like it.

I called the Scion people and asked for a price on the tech pub for our car. Turns out to be very expensive: about $200 for the service manual, then another $200 for the wiring diagrams and electrical system drawings. Is it worth it? You tell me.

Dang that's expensive. Had no idea what they cost. I guess I won't be browsing through the pages anytime soon. Does anyone know when Chilton will make a guide for our cars?

About $120 each, there are two. Until Chilton's, etc. get on these cars, we're not gonna get a decent priced manual.
