  1. Buzzing Sound

    Got it, makes sense, the dealer did mention the evap and another system. Would have liked to check out what that device was but my days rolling around under a car in ice and snow are pretty much gone.
  2. Buzzing Sound

    Had to do some interesting detective work today when one of the kids buzzed by me and said your car is making spaceship noises. Hold on what are talking about. Too late gone. There was a fairly loud buzzing sound from the rear left area of the car. Loud enough to be heard 20 or so feet away...
  3. Upgraded cargo lighting installed in SR5 w/ third row

    Looks like the way I pack for a trip.......lol Oh ya nice lights. The original lighting scheme sure needs improvement.p
  4. Aftermarket Hood Insulation / Soundproof Mat installed

    I ran into that whacky shipping charge when I was looking for a cargo mat. called the place and they said it was a big box or something to that effect. I checked around and I believe parts.elmhursttoyota.com got it to me for 20% off and $30 shipping. Box was similar to the one in the video...
  5. Remote Start inconsistent?

    After seeing the demo on youtube I gave it a try. Nothing five or six times standing beside the thing. My Daughter grabbed the fob and mashed the unlock button a bunch of times then went through the sequence. Works fine now. I had to go through the unlock mashing one other time but in the last...
  6. Drive Start Control Issue - Check Engine

    Well congratulations, quite a coincidence the part appeared in a day...... Let's hope this is limited and we will see 100,000 failure free miles
  7. Drive Start Control Issue - Check Engine

    Not sure the replacement transportation they denied is accurate. But possible I am reading this wrong. Look at the Warranty and Maintenance Guide, small booklet of maybe 30 pages. See pg 9. "Transportation Assistance". Looks like you fit in there. But no one is defining "assistance". So the...
  8. Drive Start Control Issue - Check Engine

    MA has no automotive presence for the most part-the legislature can write whatever they want 😁
  9. Drive Start Control Issue - Check Engine

    Yes I agree especially with a new purchase. And especially from Toyota. Loss of use in MA is 15 days. Then refund, including all expenses related to the purchase, taxes, registration, etc. or replacement. Your choice. I assume your state has similar laws. Loss of use is pretty straight forward...
  10. Massachusetts Wtb black roof rails

    Forgot the crossbars. Not sure what SEQ refers to. Save a few bucks picking them up...
  11. Massachusetts Wtb black roof rails

    You may never have the need but someone mentioned Clearance the morning I was headed to Brigham and Woman's. Looked at the parking site and found I had maybe 1 inch clearance.....that is without cross bars. Typical for most the area. Took a different car. Otherwise I would still be in there...
  12. Overall a good truck, but a big Fail and a bit of a miss

    I had the misfortune of the third row. Wasn't much around when I bought mine in transit. I figured whatever I will never use it and I need something so I will just eat the $1500 +/- and move on. I now have a vehicle that will comfortably transport two people. What I didn't check is loss of...
  13. Engine light - Drive-start control Malfunction Visit your dealer

    Good luck getting it solved. Getting a bit weird with these random failures of inexpensive but critical components. But this stuff (at least the Ox sensor) was used in two 2024 Toyota vehicles, so not especially new.
  14. Drive Start Control Issue - Check Engine

    Those codes are not the same as the ones Toyota found on mine. but I suppose different scanners could produce different codes but same failure. The biggest PITA for me was not getting timing for the part. What I found is the only reliable date is the one given to the dealer after an order is...
  15. Engine light - Drive-start control Malfunction Visit your dealer

    Is it a hybrid? Mine is a standard gas. It was the air/fuel ratio sensor. At the time none were available. Took two weeks to get the part. But I was told initially could be up to a month so I drove it home. The transmission clunk is kind of weird though. They cleared the faults but on the...
  16. Drive Start Control Issue - Check Engine

    What inventory system does Toyota use? The Kanban system The Kanban system is central to the Just-In-Time process. It provides an automatic, real-time method to replenish parts at the line side and keep minimal stock. 👏 I know I can't condemn the whole system over one incident- UNLESS IT 's...
  17. Drive Start Control Issue - Check Engine

    The engine air/fuel sensor was replaced today. Couple of things, I noticed much smoother shifting. No hesitation or rough patches between or after shifts. Hoping I can boost the MPG with the new sensor. Have not been able to get beyond 20.8 with non city driving. Unfortunately the sensor part...
  18. Drive Start Control Issue - Check Engine

    The part number given to me by another member who had to replace it is 89467-60270. That is the one I chased around the country. Will confirm that tmrow. https://autoparts.shepardtoyota.com/products/product/sensor-air-fuel-ratio-8946760270
  19. Drive Start Control Issue - Check Engine

    On 10/30 At about 800 miles and 3 weeks into ownership I got the engine light and just about all ancillary functions crapped out. Huge s-it show. Radar, start stop function, cruise control and several other things. Dealer buzzed it and found the air/fuel ratio sensor was bad. Also referred to...
  20. Which Drive Mode are you all using for daily driving?

    I like the topic. I have not been able to get beyond 20 mpg with around town (20%) the rest at 40 or highway speed. As I recall at 60-65 the MPG dropped below 20. The setting is always normal. I am around 800 miles. However the system went into fault when the air/fuel sensor crapped out a...
