Toyota's TIS?

Post by ColonelPanic »

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this Toyota site: https://techinfo.toyota.com/And if so, how much content is out there that may be useful? It's $10 for a 24 hour subscription, which wouldn't be bad if there was plenty of helpful things to check out within the site... If it would be worth it, I may just spend the $10... Just not here though, that would be a waste of money - lots of PDF's and only dial-up. I'm not sure exactly what kind of info I'm looking for, but if there is plenty of Matrix stuff, I'm sure I could find something of interest.What do you guys think?

Sounds expensive, but you never know. If you downloaded everything useful in 24hrs, it might be worth it. It would be nice to know if it was any good before dishing out 10 bucks.

I went ahead and got out the ol' credit card... It's quite interesting... Repair manuals, owner's manuals, wiring diagrams, etc etc...Only problem: It is verrry time consuming. Instead of one large PDF for the whole document, it is divided ito sections... Matrix repair manual is like 500 files! Worth the ten bucks, I'd say... As long as you have the time to sort through all that mess...

At http://www.matrixvibe.net/foru...=4935 , there are a couple of sites linked where you can download the 2003 Matrix service manual for free, has a basic index page and a collection of many pdf files in about a 50 MB zip file.
