Links to Forester and other Subaru service manuals

Hi all,

A very gracious forum member (who shall remain nameless unless he wants to pipe up!) has provided me with a downloadable PDF doc with clickable links to a LARGE number of Forester (USDM and international) service manuals, as well as a lot of other Subarus.

The doc is attached to this post.

Please let me know if it works for you!

PS. Dear Subaru/FHI, if this post or any information contained in the attachment or links breaches copyright and the like, please advise and I will remove the link.

regards,
Pete

G'day Pete & Members,

There is another link below to a JDMFSM resource, some files are in Russian and some are in English, I just tried the 16MY OM Forester_RUS.pdf and it is the Owners Handbook NOT a FSM and it is in Russian, hence the Forester_RU.

Proceed at your own risk and Good Luck. :drinks:

Update: Added this link - http://www.cardiagn.com/category/subaru-repair-service-manuals/ it covers a large range of Subaru year & models, XV included.

I think this might be for USA Forester's, have a look anyway and see if it is of any help to you.

False Positive by any chance?
I use Eset NOD32 v9.0.408.0 and it has no issues with the site.

Folks I own 2 x '99 SF Foresters, both have a 2 litre engine (ej20 or ej202 I assume?) but EVERY manual I have looked at, including the links in the above PDF, only ever show this model as having a 2.5 litre engine, and they are very definitely a different beast.

Is anyone at all able to point me in the direction of a manual for my 2 litre engines?
Not worried about the rest of the vehicle as I've got that covered several times over.

Thanks .. ~

Have you tried this thread? viewtopic.php?f=13&t=115

It has all the manuals.

Thanks for the tip, unfortunately I have now gone through that thread but apparently there's nothing that covers the 2 litre engines.
