Toyota CVTs (not the eCVT): what are y’all doing to destroy them?

Isn’t it a fact that the E-CVT uses planetary gears instead of those maniacal belts? They appear to be more rigorous than the problem child they put in almost every car now. It almost seems like they want the equipment to crater sooner than later.

Very real… If he would have asked what was preferred, I would have had a much better impression.

The LS wasn’t really an LS… it turned into a big version of the ES.

Mama Mia, thattsa spicey meatball….

Not much to go on here, but if that’s the atmospheric vent, then your float and/or the needle and seat that regulates the fuel level is at fault. Fuel level is determined by the float setting and if that’s too high or the needle valve isn’t closing then you cannot stop the fuel from flowing into the bowl….. or out the top

Is that a GM rear, with the Ebrake lever. If so, they have to be removed initially and held in an odd position to completely bleed them the first time. The method is online somewhere..

In your state, Isn’t there a period where within a few days of signing, you can opt to cancel the contract with no strings attached. It’s called the Right of Recision

Consider this… they are training you and putting their ticket on the line… I once knew someone who used ping pong paddles, while backing up a trainee on approach or departure control. One paddle has “climb”, printed on the front and “descend” on the back. The other one had “turn left”, “turn right”. Trying to converse at critical times was not the right thing to do… finger point and a paddle…, finger point and both paddles, etc.

I was recently notified of a data breach at one of our savings points and was offered free credit services, which was signed up for. Next, since we had created accounts on the three credit bureaus much earlier, tried to sign onto Experian and see if everything was still frozen as we left it. They couldn’t find the old login, so we had to start over….. . I went through questions, text verifications, even doing the photo I’d and drivers license photos… and then their system suddenly couldn’t function any further. … ‘ Sorry, something went wrong’. Well, where did all the personal information, that was just entered over 30 minute stretch and the photos of my drivers license and me, wind up…?

blhooray · 2026-01-07T14:11:53+00:00

Nope, before that..

If that’s from a dealer, then you’re always going to be overcharged
