oldnslo Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Hi all, is there a source for a service manual other than the Toyota manual volumes 1 - 4. I have performed a search for Haynes & Clymer but neither of them show having a manual for the 06 or newer Camry. I don't need one yet but the day will come and would like to be prepared.

Leighcm Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 You could do a subscription to Alldata or TIS...they're both online manuals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnslo Posted September 27, 2007 Author Share Posted September 27, 2007 You could do a subscription to Alldata or TIS...they're both online manuals. I looked the TIS system but at $50 for a month or $350 year seemed kind of steep especially when I don't have internet access in my garage. If I keep the vehicle for ten years at $350/yr I could hardly justify the expense unless I had to do some major repairs and at that point the car would be gone. Not familiar with alldata but the same problem applies with no internet access. Does anyone know why there are four volumes for the 07 Camry?

You'll end up with about 6 books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll end up with about 6 books. Sorry to say that would only buy two of the five manuals. According to my Stealership there are the four volumes that cover the car and the fifth for the electrical system(s). Total cost around $700. I could not get a complete list of what each volume covered. His suggestion was wait until Haynes, Clymer or Chilton release a manual. Problem is they haven't published a manual for Camry's newer than 05. Since body style changed in 06-07 I would suspect that it will be another few months before the latest version gets released. My bad for buying a new body style I guess. Appreciate the help but the search goes on. Roy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leighcm Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 Hmmm...doesn't sound right to me. A friend of mine just bought the complete set for his 2007 Lexus ES350 (not that far from a Camry), and it was only $250 from the dealership. Check with another place...
