Hi guys,
I am looking for a repair manual of my T25 avensis. I have the 2AD-FTV engine, and need to replace the head gasket. so i would need some specs on bolts etc.
Can anyone supply me a repair manual of the engine?
Thanks in advance!

I am desperately looking for a copy of the workshop repair manual for a MK2 Avensis 2008 2.2 D-4D TR Basic Model Code: ADT251 Engine: 2AD-FTV. I am having a problem with the alternator and need the wiring diagram for the charging circuit. I have seen posts in the forum for owners looking for the same document and they would appear to have been successful I though am struggling to follow any links. If someone in the know could provide me with the name of the file so I can search for it on the net or better still provide me with a link to the file or send it me directly it would be very much appreciated.
I have been to my main dealer for an air bag recall which is when my car started to have problems (Bentleys Warrington) so I have no faith in them. I have approached Toyota head office asking for help and for a copy of the wiring diagrams but they were no help and I have also been on toyota-tech.eu websit, created an account and paid for a few hours access which should provide me with access to all the manuals and wiring diagrams etc for my car...When I go to wiring diagrams there is no information available!!!
Apologies for asking something that's most likely written and re-written about throughout this forum: just got my previous car stolen and looking at the IS220d as a potential replacement, which I need asap, hence all the rush. Are there any known major issues with the 2AD-FTV engine, e.g. something as bad as the 2AD-FHV engines are famous for, or the 2AD-FTV can be considered trouble-free compared to the 2AD-FHV? Also did ALL cars in question made in 2010 and later come with the 2AD-FTV engine in them?
Any particular reason you are drawn to the Derv over the petrol version, mpg in the diesel is not going to be fantastic if you are in greater London and yes both engines you mention suffer from EGR issues and 5th injector problems.
for me personally I feel diesel has had its day in 'small' vehicle use, pushed back in the day by a glut of diesel and government subsides manufactures were thrown in and the d on the back of a Lexus was the worst thing they ever produced.
EGR valve clogging sounds like something I'd be able to cope with on my own if it occurs say mo more than once a year (I'm a bit into car mechanics). I have yet to familiarize with the 5th injector issue.
Also, I don't know what your personal preference is, but I would definitely want an automatic car around those parts, which isn't available on the diesel (it also isn't the greatest feeling manual box either).
Your use doesn't match the needs of the IS220D to give it half a chance of being reliable. If anything, it will just make the common problems occur faster. I agree with those that say get petrol. The savings on repairs will more than make up for the insurance diffrence.
Thanks for your replies. Hmm... looks like the IS220d needs to go from the shortlist in such case. Furthermore I may have to look at a different make/model as I just love manual gearbox, which is sadly not available with the petrol version indeed as already stated above. Really struggling to understand why not just fit the CD diesel engine, which had already been pretty well tested by that moment... the feeling is that to make a trouble free car is often not the goal :-)
The IS 250 (petrol) is available with a manual (6-speed) gearbox, but it is not the sought after option as the VED or road tax is eye watering compared to the auto ( 315 for auto & 540 for manual !) and let's face it if you are gonna drive a Lexus then the auto is the preferred choice.
I had a 2007 IS250 and it was perfect. I have a 2009 one now, and it's still awesome. I have the auto, and it is such a smooth box that it makes sitting in traffic zero hassle. Don't discount it out of hand - maybe try a test drive first ?
