Does anybody own these manuals?
If so where can I buy them?
Is there a eletronic version of them available?
Thanks

In the back of the manual that came with your car it says you can buy them at any Scion Dealer.

I wonder if the $250 "retail" price is correct. That seems high even for Toyota!

I forget the exact price Scion quoted over the phone, but it was quite a bit less than $250. Though I don't doubt for a minute that some dealers would charge $250 for the two-volume set.

Wow, that's some price difference. Are you getting the "hook-up" price or this price is for the General Public

I just got off the phone with North County Scion in Anaheim and was told that a complete set cost $300 and just for the electrical book was $75. I know that there are 2 books but $300 is rediculous. $75 just for the electrical i would get it right now but it take over a week to get it. I need it right now. If Steve at Carson has it right now I would get it in heart beat if we can get it for $85.

Yeah, the price at Carson is the list price on the manuals. I had to mark them up for the Scion Life store so that there would be some profit. For the people that can't drive over to Carson it will still be a better deal than buying from their local dealer! ...as you have found out!

Look in your Scion maintenance guide:
Pg 8 in the 2004 book: "To order any of the following manuals, call Scion's service publications department at (800)622-2033"

Book 1 : Diagnotics $80.00
Book 2 : Electrical, Body, Climate $80.00
Book 3 : Electrical $52.36

Someone posted this quite awhile ago, and I think I reposted it last month.

http://techinfo.toyota.com/

$10.00 for one day access, which is more than enough time to download, save, and print everything in PDF. It has service bullitens, installation instructions, wiring diagrams, and repair manuals.
