Great thanks for the reply. So halogen instead of led i thought it was strange that the glow was different. I will have to look into upgrading them! Did you see a big difference in lighting after installing the leds? Also the other lights don't fit in due to the cooling part? It is just too large?

Do you lose traction in reverse too? The fwd should be better with reverse. For better traction you can get wider tires. A bull bar should also help because of added weight. That item you bought to repair was super expensive!!

Hello I noticed the high beams have a yellow glow unlike the regular lights why is that? Are they not leds? If not then can they be upgraded?

1.- Bottom portion of the Left rear passenger handle snapped. I super glued back into place a few times already. Turns out the handle is actually half a handle and hollow inside (Top pops off). 2.- Lead Acid Battery began fuming. Almost killed me. Replaced with Tony's AGM suggestion. 3.- Cabin...

Good question. I think I had, like, two occasions where I noticed the maps where out of date. I never checked the map versions, so who knows what the heck I had. Once the new unit is in i'll check map version so you guys can compare. Hopefully that doesn't need any special tools... because I got...

Ok then no problem. I am going to take the rav4 ev in today see what the problem is. The screen hasn't fixed itself yet, so let's see what the tech say. They had changed the front left axle because it was clicking so they shouldn't be charging any inspection fee. Not like they did before since...

I'm looking at the rav4 ev manual and looking at all the fuses listed for navigation. There is only one entry: That is the only entry I see for Navigation system. I do not think it is the fuse (If that is indeed the fuse for the navigation screen) because my air conditioning system is working...

I popped out the two plastic trims on the side of the nav screen display, but I can't seem to pop out the nav screen. I see four? hex bolts holding a metallic bracket that seems to be connected to the screen. Do I need to remove these to pop out the screen? Also, the air vents on top... do these...

I wish someone would do a DIY vid on how to do this plus the tool :). I got mine changed after an accident, not my fault, and it saved me some good money. I got lucky I guess! Iw as very close to 40k miles

Oh hey thanks sweet. I was thinking about getting LEDs and changing them what a coincidence! Where did you get your LEDs? Did you get it as a kit or individual buys? Did you change all of them like in the video? I feel a little embarrassed because I did pop the light cover and looked at the...

Wait, wait, wait... if it is covered by the warranty then why do I have to check the fuses and the grounding and the connector in the back? If its any of these three items will it not be covered by the ext warranty? Is that why I should check? Where are the connectors in the back? Is that in the...

I was driving down the freeway and the nav screen died. Doesnt turn on i hope the ext warranty covers this. Its the platinum one. How much does the screen cost? They just changed the front left axle too. Took 6hrs and 2 days. Its was clicking. -updated- Toyota tech says the whole unit need to...

Hi I cant seem able to pop out the map light case to change the bulb. Does anyone does know How To pop out it out?

The interesting thing about. The pawl vs ebrake is with the pawl yoh can remove it and add a physical cut off for. Power and drift in off like an ice when you are in n with the engine off. Benefits? Zero electric consumption and no miles added to odometer. The ev turns back on faster than an ice...

So ~ This is weird and just started to happens a couple of weeks ago. I think it happens when the EXT Temp gets below 59 or 60. The air from the driver side, my side of course!, begins to blow hot air. I keep checking and I have LO + SYNC+ AC OFF + NORMAL set and have checked the passenger...

Late Reply, but I got my ext warranty from Troy and haven't had any issues. So I would say go for it!

I've had my set of problems with the RAV 4 EV 1.- Bottom portion of the Left rear passenger handle snapped. I super glued back into place a few times already. Turns out the handle is actually half a handle and hollow inside (Top pops off). 2.- Lead Acid Battery began fuming. Almost killed me...

I looked into this a while back and the information on it all is very slim. I believe the flushing/reflling procedure is pretty standard however, there appears to be some sort of electrically powered valve within the battery pack that must be opened through the obd port in order to fully flush...

Hi tony! Always here to save the day :) You did some towing with your rav4 ev didn't you? Since the vehicle isn't tested for towing does this mean we are all alone if we get into an accident? As in insurance won't cover anything?
