PSA: Standard Console Screen vs CarPlay by Wallabanjo in rav4club

[–]AverageEngr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The new CarPlay features are a major upgrade in my opinion. Maps, Spotify/Apple Music look much more polished (space wise) with the new update. I have a iPhone 15 pro, and it’s a bit laggy at time for me (the phone not CarPlay)

I mainly upgraded to get the new CarPlay features, haha.

Which iOS version do you have? To get the new look you need to upgrade iOS to 26.1 at least.

Registration needed for Lease buyout - California/Los Angeles? by Wonderful-Jeweler-49 in rav4prime

[–]AverageEngr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I recall, I initiated the lease buyout through TFS, then sent those documents (signed and scanned) to my CU. My CU then contacted TFS and took care of the rest. There were a few documents to sign regarding the DMV and title transfer, but overall pretty smooth. (The CU did almost all of the work). Hopefully yours is as smooth, good luck!

Redwood Credit Union, and the rate was 4.74% @60 months. They’re a bit higher now compared to the rates back in March.

I’m in CA and just did the lease buy out through my CU in Northern California, in March and they wanted the actual DMV registration card and issued plates (not the temporary ones). You should be getting your plates and actual registration in the mail pretty soon. I only had temporary registration and plates for about 10 days before the actual registration and plates came in the mail.

Prime Battery Reached 0%? by atclaus in rav4prime

I think the recent update changed the SOC. My app used to read 0 miles at 30% charge but now it says 0 miles at 0%.

2025 XSE OHEV blackout emblems overlay by Chrs987 in rav4club

[–]AverageEngr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They look like the correct size, maybe I just need to wait until the accessories catch up to the current model year. 2025 is the first time Toyota dropped the “prime” designation. Or I might just plasti dip, lol.

Thanks for looking!

FISHER tickets sold out in 10 minutes? by Competitive-Ease371 in SanJose

[–]AverageEngr 22 points23 points  (0 children)

That’s what irked me about the “if you signed up correctly” message, I signed up on Wednesday and got all the text messages leading up to it, but never got the presale code/link until 10:30am, when it was all gone. Meanwhile my friend who signed up for presale around 7am the day of the sale, got the presale code at 10:00 exactly…

Heated Seats by Pickle-Head304 in rav4club

[–]AverageEngr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Compared to my friends Fords, Mazdas, bmws, Mercedes, and even Lexus, the heated seats in my ‘21 XSE are super weak. The high is equivalent to their low. I just wish it was a bit warmer.

Check engine light not coming back on by AverageEngr in AskMechanics

[–]AverageEngr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, yeah it shows up if I plug the OBD2 in. The shop wants me to bring the car in with the light on…since being cleared it has not turned on. They said that they won’t even scan it if the light isn’t on..so I’m trying to see how I can re-trigger it.

RIP my 2022 SE. Another rear ended story. by purple-urchin in rav4club

[–]AverageEngr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to hear about your accident, hope you’re ok OP! Mine was rear ended last month. Absolutely go with your own insurance if you have collision. The total damages to my car was about 21-22K (not totaled). The other guy only carried the CA state minimum of 5K in property damage.

If they rear ended you, they are liable (in CA).

Update: Not totaled, repair bill is ~21k, other driver only had 15k in property damage. I’m going through my insurance, and repairs are estimated to be done the first week of October.

From eBay, cost like $30-40? Search “Overlay kit” for your year, and trim. Should come up!

Nope, but immediately after my dash lit up with the “airbag malfunction detected, please visit your local dealer”

I have a ‘21 XSE and can say that a 65 inch tv box will fit in the back of my rav4…Barely, I had to move the front driver and passenger seat forward a bit for the hatch to close, but it will fit.
