PaulE Posted March 11 Posted March 11 I Found these on a Mexican website and downloaded the series 1 manual and it appears very detailed. 1375 pages via pdf and it only cost £17. There are other series also at low prices. I think these may be similar to the Russian manuals you see online as a few Russian words come up. The link is below and I have added a couple of screenshots to give you an idea. Regrettably no hybrid manuals. Search: 6 results found for "toyota alphard" – MANUAL TALLER 2 1

I have seen this book cover before. Are you completely satisfied with the download ? What was the download size ? No concerns about scams or phishing ?
smurf Posted March 11 Posted March 11 I have a copy of this that I bought from the same website. The price seems to vary daily, and I think I paid about £11. It is about 150mb in size. It is rammed full of information and the wiring diagrams appear to be the original Toyota diagrams but annotated in English rather than Japanese. 1
PaulE Posted March 11 Author Posted March 11 This download was 139mb and was checked by my virus scanner ok- haven't looked closely yet but seems very detailed -1375 pages. 1

Ceri Posted April 10 Posted April 10 was this ok to buy? they don't take paypal or google pay, so a bit reluctant to enter my debit card detail in the site as it looks a bit dodgy.

That must be a different manual to what I bought. There is several hundred pages of information on absolutely everything, and all the wiring diagrams in English.
Picasso Posted April 11 Posted April 11 just pm you richard its not a proper workshop manual does not include full rebuild like a haynes manual its all mostly engine rebuild

Gamith Posted October 8 Posted October 8 I thought I would try it as it's 15UKP. It looks to be a Russian manual OCR'd into English. There are many 'typos' where the OCR hasn't worked and inserted random text. The fonts change as well as the size of the text so in places it's rather meaningless. While its better than nothing it would entirely depend on what you are trying to do as to whether you get value from it - on the whole it would probably be of benefit but for specifics, such as the torque setting for an engine head head bolt, you might struggle. Strangely the diagrams (approx 1000 pages of!) seem to be very well translated, I haven't found an obvious 'hard to read' bit.
