Default Factory Service Manual or Alternate

Hi all, I've been active from time to time on CL through the LS400 ('93) section, but we recently picked up a 2009 ES350 with about 78K miles on it so I wanted to say hello and hopefully ask for some advice. Sorry BTW if this has come up before, but I was not able to locate any related posts with search.

I was looking to pick up a factory service manual for the ES350 but haven't been able to locate one. In fact the only Toyota / Lexus manual I've seen (on eBay) is for the electrical system. Any thoughts where I can locate the factory service manual or something with similar information? I did buy the Haynes manual, but found it was missing things like an inner tie rod torque value. Any thoughts on AllDataDiy for this model?

Thank for the help - Dave

I called around yesterday and found out that Toyota / Lexus no longer prints factory service manuals. That REALLY sucks. Seems like there's limited options out there...where do you find your repair info (esp. torque values) now a days?

You can go to your library and see if they subscribe to ALLDATA.

The ALLDATA online information is very comprehensive and generally copies of the OEM factory service manuals (for all makes and model).

If you like it, you can buy your own subscription to use at home rather than always hitting the library..
