Thanks so much for this reply. Your number is for a 2012 and earlier. I ordered a 2013 model and it didn't fit at all. I thought all the Rav4 EVs were the same but I guess they are not. Greg

So maybe my screwup was trying to use 2013 as a fit. If I had tried a 2012, I might have gotten it to work? I may try it again. I questioned the previous email about the cargo area. My 2014 cargo area is nowhere near the battery. It has a nice storage area underneath. Greg

Has anyone had luck fitting a Weathertech Cargo Liner in the RAV4 EV? I would have thought it would use the same cargo liner as the 2012 or 2013 Rav4 ICE. I bought one and it doesn't fit at all. The front and passenger mats fit perfectly. Greg

Unfortunately, I don't have any place I can safely jack up my Rav. I have an extremely steep driveway and my garage is full of other projects. I would love some hints about how to safely remove the cover off of the center console. It looks as if they are all "snap off" but I imagine it...

I need to access the center console and I am afraid to start prying off panels. This usually ends up with me breaking clips or similar. I want to adjust the E-Brake and I believe, like all the other Rav4s the adjustment is at the base of the handle. My first problem is the Rav4 EV doesn't...

OK everyone -- the jury should no longer be out on this topic... Does regular use of Extended Charge really hurt the traction battery? I have about 70K on a 2014 and I don't think it does. I do try to run the battery as low as possible (I don't put it on charge every time I pull in the...

Thank you for the suggestion... I did discover that making sure I hit AC Off really helps. I never thought about the ECO mode. Greg

OK -- I live in Southern California so I hardly ever need heat. We are having a nice rain today so I turned up the temperature to 74 to see how the heater worked. Not much in the manual explaining how to turn the heater on, so I am guessing I just turn the temp up. It worked but it didn't...

ggodman, Was yours done under Platinum Warranty? What did you say to them? "The motor has been making a lot of noise?" I am going to take mine in in a couple of weeks, hope I have as easy a time as you did. I suppose any of the big Toyota dealers will be as good as any other. Hopefully...

I found this old thread... I have a Blue 2014 #3040 and it is starting to really whine... It has 60K miles and I have the extended Platinum Warranty. I am in Los Angeles. Thinking of taking it to Culver City Toyota and hoping to get a new drive unit out of my Warranty. How long is it...

Thanks Tony -- So, there's not much inside that box to heat up except the relay itself. I was imagining all sorts of things... I did a charge session and opened the hood. There are a couple of pumps where I could easily find them and I could tell they were running. If it was a really hot...

Is there anywhere in the control panel in the car where I can see the temperature of the various cooling systems in the RAV? Particular, I am interested in the Traction Battery Temp... Does the cooling system ever go on when charging? Sometimes I think my Traction Charger shuts down at a...

So in my own carelessness I did it again. I left the car on overnight, or maybe I left the interior lights on. Either way, I woke up with a dead 12V battery. I got out my jumper cables and connected to my other car. Everything came up, etc. Now what do I do? I think I should own a medium...

I came across the LEFAN Level 2 40 Amp Charger. (available a variety of places, Amazon, Ebay) I have been using the Jesla Charger with a variety of adapters and it is great. I wanted to make a sort of permanent hookup at home and take the Jesla around with me because it has such a nice variety...

I am ready to make the plunge. I am in CA but will consider purchases out of state. I need a nice Rav4 -- I have been driving a Rav4 (2003) for several years and now want to move on to an electric. I only drive about 50 miles a day! I will be keeping this one for many years, so I want one in...
