Default lexus link to order Online factory manuals

Does any have the link to order the factory manual for the 2007 Lexus350? I know that since the model is very new, there might be some waiting time. Many thanks.

I asked about these manuals when I was at my dealer on Thurs.
They didn't have any available but mentioned they are online.
They said there are two factory manuals and that they cost a few hundred bucks each.

Maybe we could each chip in a few bucks here and share one amongst Clublexus members?

wrong.

the manual is at techinfo.toyota.com.
If I remember correctly, the manual is complete. like 300MB large.
Dialup connections need not apply.
You'll need a good download manager app, because there are 2000 separate pdf files. but there is a url pattern, so it's easy once you figure out the url pattern.

it is $10 per day, but you can get 47 hours depending on when you sign up.
whole manual for $10.

You can also purchase the official Lexus Repair Manuals. The kind the dealerships are supposed to use. They are available from Materials Distribution Center. The phone number is near the back of the owners manual.
THE most unread book in the world.

Bob, could this have been the repair manual that the service guy was referring to for a few hundred bucks, or was he completely off base?

While the online manual is ok, it's a pia searching all around fpr the info one is looking for. But for $10.00 a day its better than nothing. I just pay the ransom and always get all the volumns for whatever vehicle I own. There's still nothing like having the proper manuals in hand.

the manual is organized into chapters. so you can combine all 2000 files into 40 different pdf files. There's free software that can do this. you can always find cracks and serials online.
