Teekay Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 (edited) I have noticed in last one year Eurocarparts have started listing Alphards in their Vehicle search when looking for parts. I can't believe the service / repair / mechanic manual are still not available still - so let me try asking Millionth Time(please excuse me!), does anyone know if there are MECHANIC MANUAL (NOT User Manuals) available anywhere? We know https://toyota.epc-data.com/ is great resource but I'm after proper Repair Manual. By the way some friend suggested https://www.toyodiy.com/tech/diy_.html is very good website but unfortunately there is no reference of Alphards and Vellfires there..sharing for information.

Jeza Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 I have found a Toyota Estima / Alphard workshop manual, in Russian! Plenty of diagrams, exploded views etc. with torque figures on and with Google Lens to translate it is OK, better than nothing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It needs some OCR software to parse it first. Here it is anyway: Also it's Gen 1. Not what you're after, right?

Teekay Posted February 10 Author Share Posted February 10 1 I ordered it using the link shared above and was easy to pay via apple pay - 8 quid 2 Got email screenshot as below (Spanish mail) 3. Downloaded the.rar file 4. Extracted it (using 7.zip - if helps anyone) 5. There is a video mp4 showing how to install some Chrome add on extension 6. Screenshot show what is in the folder I'll need to dust off a spare burner laptop to install anything and see how it works.. Might take time when I get to that.. That's my update so far 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teekay Posted February 10 Author Share Posted February 10 By the way I thought it will be pdf of a book that can be viewed on the go but it is more a software with turns and roundabout. So if car breaks down, need to have laptop handy? I don't have experience with this, may be this is standard approach of viewing workshop manuals? We got some experts in group who might be able to comment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smurf Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 They sent me the wrong link initially, and I too got what you have been sent, and it is for the gen 2 Alphard. I emailed them explaining I'd ordered a manual for the 2002 - 2008 Alphard and a new link was sent. it was a fully translated version of the Russian origin Alphard/Estima manual in PDF. Sadly no hybrid info within it but better than nothing, and all the wiring diagrams are in English as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smurf Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Just a few random screen shots. It is over 1300 pages in total. Very detailed from what I have seen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Will have to ask the other half when she comes in and post all the detail, her memory is better than mine. Actually I think someone may hay posted it on this site and that is where I got the memory stick from, you still have to download free software for it to work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
