Has anyone bought from this company for a CD SERVICE MANUAL?

I was wondering if anyone has bought a CD service manual from this company. And if so can you give me some feedback about the manual.

Toyota doesn't make manuals on CD-ROM. They only sell them on paper.

Any CD's you'll find out there (mostly on eBay) are either not written by Toyota, or they're just bootleg copies of the PDF files downloaded from Toyota Tech Info Service (TIS).

I would look elsewhere. They say it covers 2002-06, the 4th gen was introduced in 2003.

I bought the manual because I'm in the process of pulling and rebuilding the V6 motor from wife's 04 Limited (see other post http://www.toyota-4runner.org/showth...threadid=25254 for exciting details).

The manual seems to be a combination of the "Wiring Schematics" and the "Diagnostic & Troubleshooting" manuals but it doesn't seem to include the "Engine, Body & Chassis" manual.

The manual doesn't include many pictures as shown in the screenshots on the webiste link that you included. The .pdf is text searchable so you can search for the words. If you are looking for a step by step manual like Chiltens, then this manual will not work. If you are looking for technical information about each module, then this should probably work. I also agree with an earlier poster that this was probably pulled off of the Toyota Tech Info Service (TIS) which I didn't know about at the time I purchased the file.
