You must find out which is Spark Plug #1.
1. Take out all spark plugs.
2. Take a long clean straw (Dunkin Donuts) &
place down Spark Plug's hole.
You can place on all Spark Plug Holes.
3. Must turn the Crankshaft Bolt in the correct position.
Turning the Crankshaft is much easier when plugs are removed
4. Watch Spark Plug Number 1 go up & down, while turning.
5. When the straw hits it peak, Mark the line with a Marker.
6. Check for 3 times.
7. Once you marked it respect to Spark Plug's Top Housing Tube
8. Then you have what is called "ATG Peak for timing" while mechanics called it, "Top Dead Center"
ATG suggests before doing the above.
* Have someone start the engine while you watch which direction the Crankshaft Puller is turning.
Then you turn only in that direction.

Hello. Over time, the ignition switch wears and won't pass enough current to operate the starter solenoid. I added a 12V relay, available at Radio Shack and other places. Remove the small wire that runs from the switch to the solenoid, and connect it to one side of the relay coil. Connect the other side of the relay coil to ground. Now, find a 12 volt source (I came off the big terminal of the starter with a 14 ga. wire), and hook it to one of the contacts that moves when the solenoid is energized. Run a wire from the contact that the movable contact hits when the solenoid is energized, and connect it to the small terminal on the starter that you removed the original switch wire from. Check all of your connections, and turn the key. Should start every time, cold or hot. Good luck.

Software, or the service manual? You should try to contact Toyota in your country. I think that os the only way.
Testimonial: "Thanks"
I have found those code to be shown in not only over boost conditions (wastegate) but EGR flow as well as Catalyst conditions.
Being that you are lacking power I suggest you check the EGR for being stuck open, or the catalyst for being clogged.
These engines do not like light driving, you should drive them hard from time to time to kep the catalysts clean of debris.
