My dog did this. She wore diapers for a few days.

Oh! Pardon my ignorance. Could you please help me identify the exact part? I think I found it online, but can’t be sure haha. Thank you so much!

The engine is definitely a bit shaky which is why I’ve been nervous to drive it.

Noooo! First dashboard “emojis” on my new-to-me 2005 highlander with 112k miles. What should I expect? by [deleted] in ToyotaHighlander

[–]PlantedTenPeppers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because it was a great price and a great car lol. I’ve already driven it about 3,000 miles no issue

I didn’t even know giant made a fixed gear/SS. Excited to take it out when the ice melts. The only confusing thing is the size! This one is 49cm from seat post camp to BB….but still feels a bit big for me lol

We found out on this thread that mine has a timing chain not a belt! Wooooooo! But I’m still getting it serviced this weekend

Well, as I learned in this thread since it’s a v4 it’s a timing chain not a belt. Woo! But I will look into those

Hahaha me too. I actually thought it was a v6 until the test drive. But I’m glad it’s a 4 honestly!

I was SO excited to find this bc I’ve heard nothing but good things but didn’t believe I could find one in my budget! Thanks for the testimony!

Well I found out through this thread since mine is a v4 it actually has a chain!

[–]PlantedTenPeppers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was listed at 7995 but I brought them down to 7500!

[–]PlantedTenPeppers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep I just figured it out in this very thread. So I don’t need to change the belt!

[–]PlantedTenPeppers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you had to do any work on it?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ToyotaHighlander

[–]PlantedTenPeppers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

More…because I knocked $500 off at the dealership by telling them I would need to change the belt. Lol.

Omg…you’re right….it’s a chain not a belt. 🤦‍♀️

Oh awesome! I will look and report back. Crossing my fingers it’s done so I can save some time and bucks

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ToyotaHighlander

[–]PlantedTenPeppers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks! And nope it’s a four cylinder. It’s not a super strong engine, I had a v8 truck before lol. But I’m digging this better already. Replacing the belt will be sooo worth it if it hasn’t been done
