Regardless of what it was meant to be, it is spam, just because you don't charge for a "service" doesn't mean it's not a commercial message, and the fact that you posted it to a newsgroup makes it unsolicited. Please go away and leave us alone to discuss cars.

Keep getting it replaced under warranty and get an extended warranty from Toyota on it while you are at it. Then buy a new stereo at www.bought4less.com and use it till trade in time, then return the OE radio back into the dash, it will still be new.

Toyota better correct that soon. If they lose their woman buyers they will be in big trouble. mike hunt Rich Locker wrote:

the radio is wired to operate through the ignition switch, you could re-wire it, not a difficult job if you know what your doing. just find the wire that has a positive feed while ignition is on only and connect to a permanent live feed (through a fuse of course) "Michael" <miket1@telkomsa.net> wrote in message news:bogujh$ag2$1@ctb-nnrp2.saix.net...

the only problem you may come across is removing the crankshaft pulley bolt. these are extremely tight and best undone using an air imapct wrench or simmilar. try to undo or loosen this bolt first so you know you wont get stuck.........apart from that go for it, take your time, and you should be ok.

Hows the timing? Timing belt may be loose or may have slipped. With 85k it may be due for a change anyway. Bush <Bushleague@excite.com> wrote in message news:<oi3jqv0lhii5v2rjngc2muar7osr75neqc@4ax.com>...

No they don't. But the 2003 RAV4 Chilli Edition (Canada) has a nice MP3 player from the factory. Future Shop - $299 - pop it in and you'reoff. <noyb> wrote in message news:07cnqvoi4ffmqmk8fd2r1818agfr97mja0@4ax.com...

I have experience in fixing this.... unfortunately the flex pipes for a V6, are all one big exhaust unit. Toyota Dealer - $450 and change for the whole piece from the engine to the catalytic. What I did: went to a Custom Exhaust shop and had him weld in a new flex pipe piece - $160. It is stainless steel and as good as new.
