    What happened to the registry Link?

    Looking at getting another one. Need the registry to help research the units out there. All I can find is the new entry link. Need the link for the actual spreadsheet. Please post. Thank you.

    Hello to the Remaining Rav4 EV Owners Out There

    I really miss my 2013. I bought it for $13K from Carvana in 2018, drove it for three years and sold it back to them in 2021... for $13K. They were over $20k for a while but prices have settled back to about $16K. There is a 56K mile one being sold for that now. We have a Mach-e now, and it is a...

    Interior Goodies for Sale

    I am selling my Rav4EV back to Carvana after three years of ownership. I love the car, but we upgraded to a Mach-e due to range. Since Carvana doesn't give anything for accessories, I am selling them as a lot. The car is pearl white with a dove grey interior. For sale as a lot: - Grey...

    Replacement Inlet

    Well from what I can tell, the harness is wired directly to the connector, Have no clue where the other end goes. 2013 model, SN1988, so probably screwed and it is the one that needs the battery to be dropped. The dealer I now have it at will let me know if they can or will do it. If not, I'll...

    Replacement Inlet

    Well, a "free" charger at a grocery store melted my inlet. My local toyota dealer who put a new motor in my car has told me they are not allowed to service these cars. They tell me it is toyota but I'm calling BS on that. I have a Carvana/Silver Rock warranty which will cover it but who can...

    How long did you wait for a motor replacement?

    The breaker cover is actually part of the breaker, or fuse, under the passenger seat. They have to remove it to service the DU. I'm pretty sure they didn't re-seat it properly on mine after the DU replacement because it failed a month later. The SilverRock warranty covered me. I still had to pay...

    What Should I Expect from the Cabin Heater

    It delivers heat faster than an ICE car on a cold day.

    just before the extended warranty runs out - buy another?

    I bought my Rav from Carvana. I bought the warranty. It is administered by Silver Rock. After 80K, the motor bearings failed. The $11K repair cost me $55. Then the main fuse blew. I presume because they didn't reseat it properly. That $500 repair was $55. My warranty was about $1,500 and was...

    2013 Rav4 EV Owner Since 2016 - Owner Experience

    My two cents on warranty companies. I bought my 2013 from Carvana, and purchased the $1,500 Silverleaf warranty. At 85K, the traction motor started making "the noise". It took a month, but Riverview Toyota in Mesa AZ replaced the traction motor, and Silverleaf paid the $11K bill. The delay was...

    Motor Remanufacturing source

    My thoughts as well, we'll see when the car comes back from the body shop. I had some flaking paint and they sent me a letter about it, so they are fixing a little problem with that.

    Motor Remanufacturing source

    UPDATE Looks like they cannot source a refurbished motor. SilverRock has authorized a Brand NEW motor. I'm quite impressed. If they don't want the core, I may either sell the core or rebuild it myself for a spare. Dealer already told me if there is no core return, They will let me have it...

    Motor Remanufacturing source

    Hi Folks, My 2013 started having the milling/bearing noise at 84,000 miles, on what is presumably the original motor, as I cannot find any entry of the motor being replaced in the Toyota service history. The dealer confirmed the seal failure causing bearing failure. Silver Rock, the Extended...

    VHF Ham Radio Install

    I just have a little chineese mag mount for now. The door edge mount didn't fit anywhere on the rear door and don't want it on the fender. No interference at all. I've been hitting the repeaters pretty regularly.

    RAV4 next to the Model X

    Not to revive an old thread, But I was recently in the bay area and there was a line of Toyota Mirai's. I chatted with one of the owners. They are a pain in the ass. Many of the filling stations are off line. He had to drive 15 miles to this one, and at about 15 to fill from empty, car number 5...
