Toyota RAV4

That's probably your check engine light. Take your car to an Autozone, Advance Auto, or O'Reilly auto parts and they'll check it for free.

Sounds wild, I had a crx that I put a B16A1 into and if the engine was cold and you tried to high rev it it would lock out anything above 3000 rpms until you reset the ECU. With out the engine code this question would be hard to answer, you might try reseting the ECU by pulling the 10Amp hazard fuse on the passenger strut tower and leaving it out for 20 seconds, then see if the problem persists. But without a diagnostic trouble code it could be an ignitor in the distributor, a faulty fuel pump, or main relay. Good Luck My CRX does the exact same thing, My problem was that i had rust in my gass tank that would clog the filter in the tank. and on top of that i had a bad fuel pump. i replaced the fuel pump and rinsed out the Gas tank and i was fine. But Also an Issue in the ECU will cause that problem as explained above. hope i could help. Good Luck

the quickest and easiest way to do it on any car is to pull the e-brake lever up until it clicks just one time.

Toyota has a defective part which they refuse to perform a recall on; the ECM which controls the transmission is faulty and causes "harsh shifting" or "hard shifting". If left unrepaired it can damage the actual transmission, which Toyota may then have the audacity to also make you pay to replace. This is a known issue for all RAV 4 models from 2001 through 2003; I received a notice after the damage was already done to my RAV. Toyota refused to reimburse me because my car was "beyond the warranty", even though they admitted in their letter that the part was known to be faulty. For more horror stories, google the key words "Toyota RAV4 harsh shift" and look at the hundreds (if not thousands) of complaints that come back. Good luck to you.

It depends on the year but I have a 2009 with the 3.5L 6cyl and the filter is a cartrige type so make sure you get the right one. When you get the new filter, there are two O rings and a special insert for the oil canister to drain it.

If you do have the newer style, search the internet a bit more and you should find a blog on how to do it, with pictures!

Good luck.

PS: The 2009 V6 takes more than 5 quarts of oil!

Many check engine lights are hooked to the odometer and come on every so many miles, otherwise you need to download fault codes. GET A MANUAL!

This is an easy one. There are three screws under the glove box that will expose the fan and the cabin filter once the cover is removed. The cabin filter is on the left with two white plastic retaining clips approx. 2 inches long, pull the one close to you toward you and the back one away from you. This will allow the filter to drop out. Make sure the cover seats when reinstalling clips.

The curb weight of the 2013 Toyota RAV4 is 3435 lbs..

It depends on what you are calling a "whining noise". If it's very loud sounding like screeching tires it could be a slipping belt. Otherwise it could be an alternator that is working too hard or perhaps failing. Have it checked at an auto parts store that has in-car diagnostic equipment.

Bad windshield seal? Bad door seal or misadjusted door? Heater core leaking?

That "horeshoe" light indicates that the tire pressure is low in one or more tires......

The EPA mileage estimate for the 2007 Toyota RAV4 is 21 mpg in the city, 27 mpg on the highway.

CD is stuck in the changer. very common if CD has a "stick on label".

1.9L SOHC in the SL1, The SL2 has a 1.9L DOHC.

I Get 38mpg from mine.

cant get the belt tensioner to move on a 2007 rav4

I change my girlfrinds oil on her 2002 4 cyl. Rav4 and it takes about 4 quarts. It might be officially stated like 3.9 or 4.1 quarts, but it won't make any difference. I run 6 quarts in my truck and it calls for 4.8. If it's american, then don't put too much oil in it. The major reason why is the bottom of the crankshaft hitting the oil in the resavoir causing it to foam and bubble, reaching the upper head, causing a huge amount of pressure.

mine has been doing this turning sharply righ and left and it is cos the diff lock is stuck on. In my case it is probably an electronic solonoid problem but it could also relate to the gearbox (so I've been told)

You are going to have to take the vehicle into a service center for it to turn off. The light is a safety feature letting you know something is wrong with your car.

I have a 2001 RAV and will be changing them this week at 99K+ miles...

the oil filter is underneath the front of the van, slide under from the front behind the radiator and the fan motor and look up. It is kind of tucked up in between things....

The oil filter is a cartridge type filter.....it is located
at the front of the engine compartment on the front right hand side of the motor.....it is a brown resoviour with a lid , first drain your old oil , then remove the lid on the resoviour, you will need a wrench to do this, once the lid is off , remove the oile filter cartiridge and replace with new one, replace lid and replace drain plag on sump, refill your engine with new oil.
