Has anyone seen or own a Haynes or Chilton's shop repair manual for 4th Gen 2007 4Runner V6 4x4? I prefer the Haynes.

I have downloaded most of the Mechanical PDF repair manuals from Toyota. But those are not very detailed. The detailed steps and pictures on a Haynes manual are very useful.

According to the Haynes web site, they don't offer a manual on the 4th gen 4Runner. Did a quick search and it seems Chilton doesn't offer a manual, either.

Thanks for looking it up. As I could not find anything at their Web site also for any 4th Gen 4Runner, I had send them an e-mail asking them if they have any and if not, when do they anticipate publishing one. Below is the response I received:

"Dear Sir:

Sorry, the manual you are requesting has not been published by Haynes at this time. Please recheck with us in January 09.

Thank you for your interest in Haynes Automotive/Motorcycle Manuals.

Sincerely,

Technical Research"

Let's see... the 4th gen came out in fall 2002, and it's now 2008. Do you really think they will do a manual by January 2009? IMHO, not likely.

You can pay a daily fee to download what you want. Several members have said that one day is plenty of time to download all the manuals for your truck.

How is the data organized on the site? Are the manuals divided up into chapters and easy to get in sequence or do you have to do various 'searches' to get thru it all? I'll prolly end up doing this, guess for $10 it's worth a shot but more info appreciated if any details are available as to how the site is organized before I head in...
 
Full Service Manuals (FSM's) all the way!!! I have found a lot of discrepencies through the years from differenct vehicles I have owned and what a Haynes/Chilton book will tell you vs the factory's FSM. I rather have something that cost more in my hands that the engineer put together rather than 3rd party company.

I've not done it, but according to http://www.toyota-4runner.org/showthread.php?threadid=27261&highlight=manuals+download the manuals are in small increments. But apparently the 24-hour subscription is enough to get everything downloaded.
