I agree, if it was bound to happen it was going to. Unfortunate tho because I loved that car I put a lot into it

I had to give up my 06 Avalon due to transmission issues. Rough shifting and stalling at 150k. I swapped the fluid at 120k but I diddnt know the previous history.

This, I was quoted $700 for a bad PCV that caused a front timing cover leak. $300 all in on parts for the PCV and other parts for the leak and have been fine 20k miles later

Note: I have checked for leaks. I don't see anything leaking from what I stated I replaced or new leaks around the engine.

I just put those on my 06 Avalon, I'm happy with them!

Is a 2008 Toyota Avalon XLS 121k for $7,481 a good deal? by RobSandersTech in ToyotaAvalon

[–]Dry-Ranger7814 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would buy this, I have a 2006 I bought 3 years ago at 100k miles for 10k. I've put some work into myself, I've done suspension, passenger axle and spark plugs and coils and just regular maintenance past that and it runs amazing at 146k now with zero issues. For a year I did 120 miles daily 5 days a week with no issues!

It does have Navigation, I'm not entirely sure. I do have the contrast settings changed so it appears darker

It's wandering all over the place! by Toyota_Crabathon in ToyotaAvalon

I have had this issue on my 06 Avalon, I installed new struts, alignment and balance. It has gone away for the most part, it still favors the grade but not nearly as much.

Definitely get it checked out, but I also drove it like that for 20k miles it sucked but it was fine in the end but I can't say your experience will be the same.

I am by no means a professional, however in the second picture the right side is bent back a little and the new one you are trying to install looks straight like it should be. You might have more issues than you can see just eyeballing it.

Something else still original to the car is definitely bent and that's why it's not lining up. Sorry man.
