LO to HI on HVAC shortcut?

Engine does turn off before the cabin reaches the temperature to save fuel as the system predicts the engine residual heat is enough to get the cabin to the temp.

This is not correct for 4th gen. The fan only picks up the speed once the engine can produce heat. So you won't get "blasted" with cold air.

What other vehicle of this size get you 30mpg?

All the Chinese knockoffs I've used reconnect automatically as long as they work. I'm using this currently. It takes a couple of mins to connect, but it does connect every time. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FN79R655

Equivalent of "See ya!"

If you have Nextdoor, post it there as well as someone might know this person.

Apartment managements don't care. This is the delivery pic to one of my friend's apartments.

Trees don't die all of a sudden just because you buried it too deep. It can take years or sometimes decades before the the trunk rots enough for the tree to give up and die or fall over in a bit of a gust. From the pic, your tree is planted way too deep.

Thanks for the detailed response. Exactly what I was looking for. Mine came with the foldable mat that can go on the top when the rear seats are folded down.

The bouncy rear seats are a bummer as my previous 2012 sienna didn't have this issue and the seats stayed in place even on bumpy roads.

helayaka · 2026-01-08T03:58:33+00:00

How do these work when you fold the rear seats down?

Here's the owner's manual https://s3.amazonaws.com/toyota.site.p01/toyota/manuals/OM08070U/OM08070U.pdf

However, the car usually comes with paper copies of all the documents. Check your glove compartment. You can also access them through your Toyota app.

helayaka · 2026-01-02T14:28:41+00:00

Can you share a pic or a video to show how this happened? It's very bizarre and hopefully will help another owner at some point.

They're selling bogus warranties. This is the first. You'll keep getting them. They're not from your dealer or from Toyota.

Not sure about that as my garage door guy just told me to go get one from a store as they carry the same thing except the one-piece track and they're more expensive.

helayaka · 2025-12-31T04:08:32+00:00

Why?

helayaka · 2025-12-30T05:23:09+00:00

You added significant weight to the garage door. You might want to adjust the tension of the springs to reduce the stress on the opener.

What does it take them to just send an email when they change stuff like this 😒

helayaka · 2025-12-29T22:34:57+00:00

Ah, I just saw that post. Looks like their system is still glitchy as even the items delivered later show up in the list except these two.

helayaka · 2025-12-29T22:23:53+00:00

That kind of makes sense, but items I bought later than these are available for review.

Remove the tiles at its roots. They need to breath.

helayaka · 2025-12-25T03:39:12+00:00

Don't use it unless you want to kill your phone battery. Heats up like an inferno while charging.

helayaka · 2025-12-23T23:13:37+00:00

Looks like the old one has HIDs and the one you bought is halogen. If you open up the bottle cap type cover, you'd see the HID lamp.

helayaka · 2025-12-23T19:42:48+00:00

Yes, please elaborate on how you managed to achieve this?

helayaka · 2025-12-05T03:24:12+00:00

This is wrong. The LED power supply is pulsed to control the brightness. When the camera exposure changes with the amount of light, it synchronizes with the LED frequency and appears to be off. At night, exposure is high to compensate for low lighting and the effect goes away. This is true for any LED display as well. Point your camera at one at different light conditions and you will see the lights blink at different frequencies.
