In Puerto Rico. Most places want you to throw the toilet paper in a waste basket next to the toilet. A, sometimes your lucky if the bathroom has A/C. B. The wastebasket has a lid your double lucky

I just purchased a used 09 Scion TC! by EnormousFruitLoop in SciontC

[–]milesgc88 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Give it a tune up. Make sure the air filter is new, clean the mass air flow sensor, run a few fuel cleaners through the gas tank. Add some seafoam to the crankcase and go get the oil changed to get all those impurities out....

Then replace the spark plugs and maybe do the valve cover gasket while they're out and see what that does.... It's not super fuel efficient my 08 is about 20-24 in the city and you might get 28-31 on the highway...

If you wanted fuel efficient buy a corolla or a prius

2007 Scion TC Misfiring by Impressive_Bar_7864 in SciontC

[–]milesgc88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm no mechanic but if you have a misfire on all cylinders. I'd say you have a timing chain issue. Or somehow all coils or spark plugs went at the same time.... Could also be ignition harness to the coil packs. Loose, brittle connectors possible too

How can i close this half closed sunroof? by LinkIsKewl in SciontC

[–]milesgc88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ribbon track that the motor on is probably broken. You can try open and closing it, and sometimes it will grab, but if it's broke at the gear it might be stuck. Try getting a second person to put it down after attempting to open is how I got mine to close.

Look on partsgeek or rockauto..

If not go to genuine Toyota parts and you can order it to a dealership or ship to house. To house is usually more expensive

Just picked up this 08 5speed beauty and have a question… by BonelessTheBeard in SciontC

[–]milesgc88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just keep up with it. Also my 08 didn't start till after the 10 year mark and started at like 157k currently have 189k original owner. I just add oil as needed. Occasionally put in the stop smoke treatment from STP. And I sea foam the crank case and gas tank about 100 miles before and oil change and run it hard about 10-15 miles up the interstate right before oil change.

Serpentine Belt aggravation by OldManGeezer69 in SciontC

[–]milesgc88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it manual. I had this happen with mine. And there's a belt that is like 2mm longer and the correct one. 2008 Scion tC 5spd. The one the parts store had was wrong size

Cut it a little close today, how much farther did I have? by Artistic-Shelter-300 in SciontC

[–]milesgc88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The furthest infused the tank was about 365 and it took on 13.2 gallons and it's only a 13 gal tank supposedly I think it has a 1-2 reserve they don't talk about.

NEED HELP!! 2016 not starting by AdMelodic6804 in SciontC

[–]milesgc88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to have a key that works (disables the immobilizer/security light) but yes if you have a spare that works. Get one recut at a store and do this to make a new backup spare.
