I have looked at both Chilton and Haines and cannot find a repair manual for the 2006 Scion XA. Am I missing something or does it not exist? Also, does the 2006 XA have a timming belt or chain and when do I need to worry about replacing it. Thanks for any info.

 

there is one coming out in the fall around oct-nov for first gen xA/xB 04-06

 

I have seen the xA manual on ebay several times. is it the wrong manual?

 

I would try eBay. I got mine for a '04 xA for about $162 for both manuals. They have a LOT of information and I really recommend them if you are serious about learning about your car. They are getting rare though, so keep looking. Also, a Toyota/Scion dealership might have one.

Also, it's a timing chain so it shouldn't present a problem for quite some time :-)

 

Thanks for the replies. Hopefully Hwybox is correct and I will try Toyota. I saw in the owners manual about a reapair manual, but never paid much attention to it, but since I'm keeping this car for the long haul I want to be able to do the easy things myself. Of course easy is subjective unless you have the proper tools. Can't tell how many times I've smashed my knuckles trying to loosen a bolt. Thanks Ram for the timing belt issue, cannot tell you how many times I've googled just one question and got no direct answer.

 

let me know if you find it at the dealership and how much. ive checked several auto shops and of course wally mart but cant find it

 

I bought a CD off of ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SCION...item20aeecf51e

It has everything that I've needed so far...including the wiring diagram. If there's something specific that you need, I can see if I can just scan it over to you or somthing. But do keep in mind, my example of the wiring diagram was 232 pages, I beleive.

 

wow, definitely gunny buy, thanx

 

yep!

you fail to mention that you have to pay to get access.

why is it soooo damn expensive! does any1 have a subscription, is it any good or even worth the fortune?

 

it's great. it's what the techs use at the dealerships.

however, they get free access.
hint: find someone that works there

 

If you tell me what you need, I might be able to find it on the cd & send it to you...

 

well all manufacturers of cars will have that nice manual but you have to shell out 300ish for them suggestions go ebay auto stores do not have them at all i work at pepboys ask me anything bout the car and i will look into it for you if i dont know

 

would the manual have the shift cable repair

 

There is a chapter on it. PM me your email and I will try to email it to you. The chapter is an 8MB PDF.
