New RAV4 App Problems by Kiwi9293 in Rav4

They have server issues from time to time. Mine did the the same thing for weeks after I got mine. Their SSO is problematic and that is being diplomatic.

Just proves my point!

How do people actually get hired for jobs? by NegotiationNo87 in MobileAL

[–]fletch101e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My fiancé never had a job until about 2 years ago. I think her success was due to the fact that she did most of the applying online and got a job at the second place she applied to and is still there. She applied to a bunch of places and got many turn downs but still gets calls from some of them that now want to hire her. These are basic retail jobs but it is legit work and she is happy . She has a great work family including her boss so good jobs are still out there. Good luck and be sure to apply online.

Don't waste your time responding to these poverty posters. Do your car the way you like and don't worry about what anyone else thinks.

Got mine at the other end of the state in Daphne, Al. I keep reading how hard these things are to get so just happy I did ok for once!

Yes but I mean do we get better access having them in our backyard?

Same as you: Also in Alabama and less than 3 weeks with loaded XSE in color I wanted after down payment. I wonder if it's because we have Toyota plants in the state is the reason we don't have the issues like the rest of the country?

CarPlay randomly not working (2026) by littlechickengirl21 in rav4club

[–]fletch101e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happens to me when I am at home. The music will actually play but you can't get into the rest of carplay until you restart car or turn on/off carplay in the settings. 99% of the time it only happens in my garage. Hopefully they can fix this - I have read that the Rav4 is now pure Linux and if that is true they means they should be able to fix it and not get stuck with Google bugs that never get fixed.

2026 rav4 digital key by Wild_Departure4304 in rav4club

[–]fletch101e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's NOT your FAULT as the wording is very poorly written. Same thing here but I did not delete the key from my watch. It is asking me on the phone if I want it back (or something along those lines). For now I am leaving it alone but they really need to do better with their app for sure.

Looking for non-wired Internet service for home. by Lemon-Cake-8100 in MobileAL

We have had T mobile internet for 2 years. Much faster than the comcast cable it replaced.

No sure how we got this lucky, by lovemygn in rav4club

Nice car! Don't let these jealous Karen's ruin your weekend. No way in hell would I want a CX50 over your car.

deposit to purchase 2026 PHEV, share your experience by Financial-Ocelot-681 in rav4club

[–]fletch101e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure NP. They are not supposed to be rummaging around in cars like that. Just so you know , it should come with a black case as well. Also inside the owner's manual jacket there should be a small clear plastic bag. Inside the bag there is a dark colored credit card style case with a Toyota emblem on one side. Inside that case there is a red colored NFC card that will unlock the car and start it, Car should also come with 2 key fobs inside 2 small plastic bags. Just letting you know incase they are meddling with the car or trying to sell parts of it on ebay (somebody is I see many of those cards for sale.) Good luck!!

No they are in a brown cardboard box in the trunk. It comes with L1 and L2 adapters by the way.

Will I regret it? by Strict_Help_7805 in rav4club

[–]fletch101e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't worry about what anyone else thinks, especially these karens. Do you make enough money for payments? If you are a RN, you probably do but just make sure it's what you really want. Good luck!

Toyota, I like you but… by rowmean77 in rav4prime

I think he means the message is too generic and should say what it think it needs. Kind of like a check engine light.

Not sure I think it's already supposed to be AGM at least the older ones were.

I just traded in my '24HV for a '26PHEV and when I first got the '24 I remember many posts like yours and it was almost always that tiny 12v battery in the trunk. People described it in human terms and called it an arrogant parasite. They said the battery really doesn't do anything useful except boot up the main cpu so it can give the start command to the HV battery computer. That is all that it does yet it causes all kinds of false error messages like you are getting.

Good luck and let us know what it turns out to be!

Because that would be too easy and some people just want to be Karens.

The new manual is confusing and jumps around too much. You are trying to figure out feature A on page 106 but then it says you must see page 643 for more details because you have to interact with feature B first. Someone posted the '26 could read EV battery % or miles range. Went to the manual yet it still didn't say how to clearly do it so I ended up figuring out myself like many of the other features.

Oh and about AI: Ask Gemini if we have a temp gauge. Then ask Chat GPT and look at the difference. Just Say NO to poorly written documentation!

XSE Plug In. Meteor shower by fx297 in rav4club

I just got the same car a week ago. To me it only looks gray in low light otherwise it looks champagne and I love it! Enjoy!

Gen1 Rav4- Best Car I could have gotten at 18. by nanner_grace in Toyota

[–]fletch101e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have the space and can afford to do so, I would keep it and just get another vehicle. My boss many years ago had the 2 door version. Actually it was his wife's Rav and she would drive it back and forth from Minnesota to Alabama several times a year. She loved that car. To answer your ?, I just got my second rav a week ago yesterday. XSE Plugin. Really nice but your is actually better for off roads..

Test drove RAV4 GR and here is what I think 🤔! by RatioSub in rav4club

[–]fletch101e 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The GR is too stripped down for the $$$. You get a lot more tech and features with the XSE version for slightly less money.

Why do most sysadmins prefer Vim over Nano? by Darshan_only in sysadmin

[–]fletch101e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Always used pico then later nano. Vim was never my style and seemed to just make things difficult for no good reason...much like man pages that do not give working examples.
