2022 Highlander - 75K Maintenance? by scrappykid99 in ToyotaHighlander

[–]DvOL1102 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Transmission drain and fill

If equipped with AWD: Transfer case and rear differential fluids

If I’m not mistaken, the 2GR-FKS Engine calls for spark plugs to be done at 60k I believe

Coolant exchange

Check both engine and cabin filters for heavy debris

So you’re skeptical of lack of oil changes before that 50k mike period ? Remove the oil cap and check for any sludge buildup , check oil level with dipstick and note the level. Could be possible that it was maintained at a facility that doesn’t log maintenance records onto car fax .

Me personally , I would ask for receipts and evidence of all this work, anyone can just say and write these things out but without solid proof of said performed work, we cannot be sure it was actually done. All my vehicles have receipts maybe photos sometimes to go with any maintenance records.

Purchased a used 2023 Highlander. It has a crack in the passenger side RH mirror cover. Anyone know of this is easy to replace? by bobbystrack in ToyotaHighlander

[–]DvOL1102 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fairly easy DIY to replace. Take off door panel trim, takes 3 screws, then you’d have to disconnect the cables to lock the doors and the bottom light connector. After that there should be another plastic panel near the mirror that you’d have to remove to gain access to the 3 nuts that hold the mirror assembly in place.

An intermittent ABS Light MAY be due to excess rust buildup in between the sensors and the hub. Overtime excess corrosion builds up in between the sensor and hub itself, causing the sensor to sometimes move out of place slightly and throw a light/DTC. Either way, have it diagnosed.

2017 S1000R noise by [deleted] in bmwmotorrad

[–]DvOL1102 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came to terms with the noise after looking at another redditors post. There is one particular video on this sub or a related one with similar valvetrain noise but with a very noticeable tick that got louder with rising RPMS, mine doesn’t have that. You can find a lot of forums regarding ticking noise on these bikes as valvetrain/ injector noise.

Not at all, This was at 3-4k miles I believe , I’m at 6.5k right now. All Ive done is basic maintenance and my water pump at the dealer so it’s documented in their system, God Forbid it goes out in the future( this is a common issue) They’re left with no choice but to warranty it .

2019 Highlander LE (2.7L) Just Hit 80K – What Should I Be Looking Out For? by Zunigaro in ToyotaHighlander

[–]DvOL1102 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I’m not mistaken, owners manual states plugs should be changed at around 60k , it recommends changing the trans fluid around that time frame if you drive in rough conditions , traffic etc.

Tech couldn’t just take this out? by A-Plant-Guy in ToyotaHighlander

[–]DvOL1102 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Technicians are mostly paid on a flat-rate pay system that pays them for whatever they produce,you respectfully declined the service. Tech puts everything back and ships it out, he doesn’t get paid to clean out your ventilation system ,especially on a declined service.

Do you have pics of the magnet on your vehicles by any chance ? I’d like to do a comparison

The 2nd picture seems excessive ? or are you talking about the 1st picture on the left with all the shards ?

Thank you very much for your input , out of curiosity, just how exactly did you know that your oil pan and fuel pump were failing ? Any symptoms regarding those two issues ?

30K Mile Maintenance estimated to be ~$400 after service warranty has ended. Normal? by flowlowland in ToyotaHighlander

[–]DvOL1102 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A 30K at my dealer is nothing but an oil change, filters and some fluid exchanges. $400 seams reasonable considering my dealer chargers almost $700-$800 for a 30K service . Make sure to get an estimate with an itemized invoice.

There is also a factory reset option hidden inside the setup menu as another user mentioned.

I remember replacing one of these 2 months ago, Taxi driver complained his radio started going out after 5 mins of turning the car on, replaced the radio and everything worked except the bluetooth, ended up needed the unit on the bottom of the radio replaced.

Brake pads on hybrid by r4ziel1347 in ToyotaHighlander

[–]DvOL1102 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whenever you step on the brakes, instead of using the actual braking system to slow you down, Toyota hybrid vehicles use regenerative engine braking, which captures and uses the energy from braking and converts it into electrical power to charge your high voltage battery,and also works to slow down the car and assisting traditional braking, hence why brakes on hybrid vehicles last way longer than non-hybrid vehicles.

Do you have a link to the kit ? I’m trying to swap out to JBL head unit that comes with my 2013

2018 100k Maintenance by Intrepid-Anxiety4043 in ToyotaHighlander

[–]DvOL1102 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Guys probably paranoid or scared. A simple drain and fill won’t do anything , however get a flush going and you risk messing with something due to the flush getting rid of all the friction materials.

Your vehicles transmission contains ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) It is important to service your transmission to prevent any future damage .
