09 Service Manual?

Does anyone know how to find the service manual for an 09 2.5i? I can't seem to find any online ones when I do a Google search. Any help would be much appreciated!

The service manual in the owner's manual? I'm talking about the manual that has drawings of every piece of the car, labeled with part numbers.

More specifically-
http://techinfo.subaru.com/html/ixSe...reza+%28WRX%29

Get the 72-hour subscription for $34.95 to download whatever sections of the manual you need in pdf segments. You can also download other documents such as TSBs relevant to your car.
If the hardcopy version of the manuals is available from Subaru it will be around $300 so the electronic version is a better deal.
Note that any manuals you may find posted or for sale online at a non-Subaru site are unauthorized copies. Subaru does not allow anyone else to sell or post them. The only exception may be Alldata.

There is a free one on another subie forum. I was able to download it off an ftp site. Google search 08 subaru wrx service manual. If you really cant find it, I guess I can email it to ya.

FREE is better in this case.

09 cars are different / better that 08. They made numerous changes. The 08 manual for the most part is no good for someone with a 09

Some changes...VF52, downpipe, springs, struts, tophats, sways, and an aero kit.

Otherwise, how to disassemble and reassemble those parts hasnt changed.
