PSA you can download your owners manual and search it

So we all know the glovebox bible has all the answers and is the ultimate reference. We also all know it is information-dense and a pretty dry read.
For anyone who hasn’t, I’d suggest visiting this site and downloading a copy of the owners manual for your model year.
Any halfway decent pdf reader (mobile or desktop) will let you search for keywords and bookmark pages. Makes the best reference tool much easier to use.
Welcome to the future present

 

good idea, this can help many around here!

 

Not sure how much visibility it will get since it’s not about oil changes, tires or suspension and doesn’t promise any exciting wheel reveals…
Also won’t stop threads from people who are afraid to click through the settings on their head unit before posting, but figured it may help some who are already willing to help themselves

 

Can anyone say "RTFM"?

 

Only way to troll with facts!!!


Saved on my phone.

 

I just wish a service manual for our trucks was this easy to access

 

I found and downloaded one for 2016 from somewhere… It’s 11k pages and 250 mb
I’ll see if I can find a link tomorrow

 

Super groovy.

 

Excellent discovery, my friend. My wife's 2014 Rav4 never came with the manual so I might just take a poke at it

Aaaand that's why I love this forum. I've never seen a full copy like this, always been told you have to pay to access TIS. Thx!

 

With TIS, you have access to the most current manual(s).

That copy was last updated in November of 2015. It doesn't reflect any changes or new features added since. For a guy like me with a build date of 9/15, it's fine.

We have @gearcruncher to thank for taking the time to download that copy.

 

Gotcha...I've got a Dec 19 build date. Still a good resource to have though

 

i like books. I stare at screens all the time.
