Title: Repair and maintenance Manual for MR2 mk111 2000
Post by: kwnelson on September 8, 2017, 10:35
First timer!!!    Anyone recommend a good manual.   There does not appear to be a Haynes publication. Would be useful to get one up to the same standard or somewhere near.

There is a great manual available from Toyota. But it isn't cheap. There is however access to this great reference on a needs basis. You subscribe to the website, and then you can pay for access. As little as 30 mins to yearly. 30 mins costs like 2 quid or something. That's your best bet.
Forgot the link but it's on here somewhere  s:) :) s:)

OK,   So I didn't know that I was opening a whole jar of worms when asking about repair manuals.   But a bit of research reveals DVD's, and most helpful YouTube.   But thanks for the notsocheap reference to Toyota workshop anyway.    Off to Halfords for a whole barrowful of release oil, bulbs,  headlight lense cleaner,  replacement gear knob, etc.   All aimed at MOT.    Bought car with failure certificate and advisory list, so here goes!

Just as an aside.... you'll learn quickly  s;) ;) s;)  Halfrauds is like PC World. Overpriced for consumers.

I'd suggest ordering stuff up online on Euro Car Parts and collecting it. They always have a sale on and a discount code at the top of the page.
You'll save yourself hundreds!

Also Screwfix (if you have one near) are also good for stuff like plusgas.

You can make the Toyota website relatively cheap by purchasing a short time period and downloading like mad.  With a decent internet connection you shouldn't have to put too much money in the Toyota coffers, probably less than 10 euros.

The fee is worthwhile, as it allows you to keep what you downloaded for personal use only.

Have fun!
