It woukd be good to know if dealers or the Port QC people are adding anything, changing the bolt type, etc.
If anyone gets a dealer fix in which they got new, upgraded parts, let us all know.
Not driven it yet and being honest, my hearing is not up to par. I think it will help creating an air gap between the upper engine and hood. I wonder if it would help in the hood flutter at speed on the highway... Need to test soon.
The hood pad is not bad quality. It's just the installation...
The following are my personal observations after buying the @Zekzoop Hood Mat. Against my better judgment, I went with an aftermarket product over OEM. I found it on Amazon with a discount resulting in a final price of $59.99 plus sales tax. I received the product today shipped UPS. It was...
I am looking for push-point fasteners like the OEM ones that you push to get out. Looking on Amazon, I only see what looks like crappy alternatives.
1) Has anyone found a source of OEM push-pin fasteners and at what cost?
2) Can anyone recommend one as good or better that the Toyota original...
Agreed. They put out an app that has no real value to most folk and on top of that, its annoying in terms of notifications.
They need geo exclusions for what ever locations you normally park. Garage, work, etc. They also need detail in the notifications and the granular ability to turn off or...
WhAt a jackass reply!!!
Getting in and out of the 4R is a PIA. Coming from a Ford and driving 100+ rental SUVs a year, I can confirm. Its not ergonomic. I am 5’6, fit and flexible.
Short answer based on no useful information in the question is NO.
I really don’t think the 4R is a tow vehicle for RV trailers. You would have to carefully manage your load and even then would be close to max all the time. Wear and tear on the 4R would be exponential more.
can you do it...
UPDATE - I cancelled my appointment with Tint World Chattanooga. Too many bad reviews and in dealing with the guy, it set off red flags. I asked which Xpel film he's using in the job he quoted... He did not know. I said is it Xpel Ultimate Plus? He said, yes that's it!!
Then it came to getting...
I am just going through this myself. I previously (many years) had a good method but on my new 4R, I added new variables into the mix.
IMHO - Glass cleaner alone will not remove water spots or other contaminates on the windscreen. I have used a 50/50 mix of distilled water and household...
Mine is staying on. When I first got the 4R 2 months ago, I checked it. Two of the screws were loose. I tightened them being careful to not over tighten and its been good. I do check for looseness before a long trip.
I hope they have a recall.
Do you leave the light in place all the time or only clip on when needed. I ask in reference to rattles and noise. If you leave it clipped on, does it cause a rattle?
Great solution idea.
Get it into a dealers service Dept ASAP. Sounds like Coolant in the combustion gasses to me. Head gasket? Turbo seals both previously mentioned. I thought if oil was getting in it would not be a white smoke but my knowledge is kinda dated.
I always polish my windshield. I have a proven method based on 30 years experience. However, I am struggling to get the 4R glass polished.
All other perimeter glass polished fine, smooth when rubbing fingernail across.
I have polished using Chemical Guys 36. , then 38 but its still rough. I...
