https://techinfo.toyota.com/techInfo....toyota.com%2F

2 day subscription is $15. All of the pages are in PDF format but the way the site is set up you have to download each page individually so if you want to know how to repair / replace specific things it's not hard to download but if you want to download the entire manual set aside some time and get ready to do a lot of right click / save as.

Here's a link to a publisher with online sales for the latest/greatest FSMs. Lexus/Toyota etc etc.

I've purchased from them before. Reasonable, fast and professional.

For the cost of those ^ 3 books ($80 a piece x 3 = $240) you can buy all 3 books published by Lexus for $202 and you can also submit a best offer and get them cheaper than that.

I've also bought manuals from Helm, Inc. before and they were excellent. I think for the GX all you need is the Shop/Service set (2x$80). You likely don't need the body repair one (covers painting & collision work), and probably don't need the wiring diagram one, since the shop/service set should have them in there already (based on past experience)

The electronic copies are nice, but taking the laptop into the bathroom to read is awkward...

No, Helm Inc. is just like the Lexus shop manual(s). There are 3 volumes for service / repair, 1 for electrical and 1 for body.

And I agree, Helm inc. manuals are good. I had them for my Acura MDX back in the days.
