You can purchase a Haynes Manual specific to your vehicle at most auto parts stores.
I own an 02 Highlander, and sometimes I get a knock when engine is under load, like going up a hill or when accelerating. This is engine knock caused by low octane gas. When I use a mid grade or premium octane, I do not get the sound at all. .
Look on the inside of the engine compartment and there may be a sticker showing them.
Yes, I have hauled everything from a 250cc street bike to lumber and scrap metal in mine... Best SUV I've ever had!
it could be either a broken wire of just the bulb.
Insufficient information is given - but it could possibly be a sticking valve lifter that quiets down and the noise goes away after the engine is warm and the oil is circulating.
Yes, you can use 10W-40 oil in a Toyota Highlander, but it's essential to check the owner's manual for the manufacturer's recommended oil viscosity. Typically, most Highlander models recommend 5W-20 or 0W-20 for optimal performance and fuel efficiency. Using 10W-40 might be suitable in certain conditions, such as higher temperatures or for older engines, but it could impact fuel economy and engine performance. Always ensure that the oil meets the necessary specifications for your specific vehicle model and engine type.
Could you be more informative?Which engine is in it?Thanks
It calls for 5W-30 conventional motor oil but in a warm climate you could use 10W-30.
The check engine light in a 2004 Toyota Tacoma can come on for many reasons. It could indicate an exhaust leak or a problem with the engine.
The 3.3 liter V6 engine in a 2004 Toyota Sienna ( IS NOT ) an interference engine according to Gates ( they make timing belts etc. ) The answer I get from Toyota dealership ... it is an "INTERFERENCE ENGINE" Thinking it is not an "interference engine" could be a very costly mistake.
There is a fuse box under the hood in the engine compartment. It looks like a rectangular shaped black box on the drivers side. There should be a diagram underneath the cover of the fuse box that shows you what each fuse does. It can be confusing. If you are having trouble understanding the diagram (like me) locate 2 fuses that are separated from the others. One is a 7.5 amp and the other is a 25 amp fuse. The 25 amp fuse is for the stereo. That is where it is on my 2006 highlander it could be different on another year. Hope this helps.Another View: No year is given for the Highlander in the question. I have an '06 and the radio fuse is located in the fuse panel underneath the bottom of the left hand side of the dash board to the left of the steering column.
A dirty idle air control valve could cause a 2003 Toyota Highlander to stall after being filled with gas. Also, make sure the gas cap is sealing tightly.
