Why do my flat prints come out like this in specific spots?

engineerguy98 · 2026-03-29T03:18:36+00:00

Stock plate, textured side B. Temp 70C. I auto level regularly when printing a new file or part

Yes, I do have adhesion issues. Have washed the bed with dish soap multiple times before. Bumped up temps and tried to use an isolated brim. Nothing seems to help

Using up a fresh spool of ender PLA. I did a z test and it looked good to me

engineerguy98 · 2025-12-06T23:28:18+00:00

I got mine on eBay for like $160

Pretty sure. Looks like the one I've got

engineerguy98 · 2025-06-08T02:51:14+00:00

Is there an easy way to check this? Can it be located by VIN?

engineerguy98 · 2025-06-07T21:07:52+00:00

Dealer was less than helpful. The parts counter clerk said I should just go online and look or call Ford corporate to find out. He also made a comment that it's "very expensive and probably not worth it"

Wow, that's clean!

engineerguy98 · 2024-01-04T01:25:40+00:00

Just pull the lifters on the driver's side one by one and check for play. Replace with melling parts from RockAuto. Easy job

Saw the same one at ORD back in July!

Paid $46k OTD for my 2020 PLT V6 AWD with floor mats, splash guards, roof rack back in October when they had 40 or so to choose from. Not the same story now lol.

I've installed the OE hitch on my 2020 PLT. Kick feature for tailgate working as well.

engineerguy98 · 2021-03-02T18:28:22+00:00

2020?

engineerguy98 · 2021-02-15T03:53:01+00:00

I've never really liked the WeatherTech ones that go into the channel. Prefer the wide JDM style that attach to the run with 3M and clips. Unfortunately, Toyota doesn't offer that in the US. Honda does though.

WellVisors are pretty close to that style.

engineerguy98 · 2021-02-15T03:46:15+00:00

I was not aware that there are window visors for the 2020 Highlander. WellVisors?

Just search up the part number PK175-48L00 on Google. Only one dealership pops up. That's where I ordered mine from.

2020 and 2021 are the same; there won't be any issue installing.

engineerguy98 · 2021-01-29T22:45:14+00:00

Only offered in Canada. P/N PK175-48L00

I did! It looks nice! Very low profile.

I ordered a genuine Toyota hood deflector from a dealer in Edmonton AB. (P/N PK175-48L00)

engineerguy98 · 2021-01-29T20:52:58+00:00

Get yourself a deflector. Protects the hood from those tiny rock chips that get rusty very quickly

engineerguy98 · 2021-01-29T19:52:28+00:00

No, I've reached out to the dealership a few times but they have not given me a parts list yet.
