Unhappy bahamut lexus

This site had the factory repair manuals for several cars like the Lexus GS`s series this is what I saw at the site.

"After many years of free help to fellow Toyota and Lexus owners and enthusiasts, the Workshop Manuals have been removed from the site upon request from Toyota Motor Corporation"

This site was a great resource for the DIY. I hope I can find one as good as this one.
I just thought people should know.

I hate when that happens. I don't know of a place to get free manuals anymore, but, stuff like this isn't allowed to be discussed on the CL forum. (freebies and the like)

don't be so to quick to label toyota as money grubbers. There are some good reasons you wouldn't want info hosted outside your control.

If you want the info, it's not like they're charging a lot for it or making it hard to get. Go to techinfo.toyota.com

They only charge $15 for a 2day pass, and then you can go nuts downloading or printing out everything you need during that period of time. This is a very fair pricing structure for a home DIY mechanic, less than the price of an oil change. Not to mention for someone owning a lexus luxury car, this should be doable
