Damn, I'm getting old. They want you to pay for a subscription instead of buying a book once. #facepalm

Yup, I know. Welcome to the new world.

Companies like Haynes and Chilton will probably come out with one in a few months.

You sound surprised that it's by subscription. When all of your vehicle services including remote start are by subscription which could just be a button on the key fob. Toyota is trying hard to strip every dollar from your hands.

To be fair remote start is offered on the key fob, but I get your point.

At least they offer a short-term subscription to the online database (2 days for $25, or $95 for a month) rather than only a $505 annual subscription. I bet there will come a time when I pay for the 2-day subscription, but given how slow Toyota is with every form of documentation, I have to wonder how incomplete their database for the 2025 4runner probably is, at the present time anyway.

The "collision repair manual" might be the most interesting, in that it probably describes all the pry points and removal tools and techniques for all the snap-in trim and other interior pieces. I have an intermittent rattle that seems to be coming from the driver's side horizontal dash speaker but I cannot figure out how to remove the speaker grill without potentially breaking it.

Thanks, extremely helpful!

I found this tool that will crawl, and fetch/download, the manual: https://github.com/iamtheyammer/fetch-toyota-service-manuals

The steps outlined in this issue (https://github.com/iamtheyammer/fetch-toyota-service-manuals) provide a workaround for recently enacted MFA requirements.

@0801 Were you able to download the electrical wiring diagrams, as well (EM files)? I was able to download the RM files using the method from your link, but for some reason the EM files threw an error.

no, getting an error on the EMs. haven't had a chance to take a deeper dive yet.

Thanks. Please report back if you get it figured out.

Hello @0801 and @Deker! I'm curious if ya'll had any updates since your last posts. Thank you!

for the speakers there is a video in detail about that, look in the audio sub forum for the thread about replacing all the speakers.

they go into pretty deep detail on the process

EWD are live, animated docs, not regular PDF's.

EWD cannot be downloaded without losing most of the connected system information.
Even the steps to replace a pin on a connecter is an animated graphic. Connection
and junction tracing is also animated.

I must not be looking in the right place> All I found was this thread:
https://www.4runner6g.com/forum/thr...eaker-harness-bracket-info-upgrade-info.5972/
but no video showing grill/speaker removal. When you have a moment, I'd sure appreciate if you or someone who knows of this video could steer me in the right direction. Thanks.
