FAQQuestions about the MR2 manual
Which MR2 years does this manual cover?
Every year from 1985 to 2005 — 16 separate manuals, one per model year. Pick your year in the selector; the manual you receive is matched to that exact year, engine and trim.
Is this the OEM Toyota MR2 manual or an aftermarket guide?
The OEM version. It carries the procedures, specifications, torque values and wiring diagrams Toyota published for the MR2, organized by system — not a condensed aftermarket summary.

Every MR2 year is $34.99.
