Toyota RAV4

Phillips screwdriver from the front

It depends want it wrong. Is it the gage or the float. The gage is easy you just take apart the dash and pop in the new one! The float couldn't tell ya that's in the gas tank and I'm not going to touch that!

The gross weight of the 2006 Toyota RAV4 is 4430 lbs.

It turns off left. But it is almost impossible to do without an impact wrench. To get it off without impact tools you need to find some way to keep the engine from rotating as you turn the bolt. That bolt is in there pretty tight and almost any method you try to hold the crank pulley is going to cause damage when you try to crank that bolt loose. Suggest you check with a local rental outfit and rent the compressor (if you don't have one) and the necessary impact wrench and socket. Good luck.

Does it blow all the time or not work at all If it blows all the time it's the horn relay which is located on the horn it self horns from the dealer are expensive Mine's 58$ YOU might also have a blown fuse in the under the hood fuse box If the horn circuit is any thing at all like my sw2 the relay or horn wire has 3 wires one should be hot the other two are switched and a ground as far as I can figure out Good luck doug

Just did this in wife's 1999 SL2. Watch this video for details. Total time less than 10 minutes to replace. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltiNuHdKeIg

ECT power is Electronically Controlled Timing. What this does when the switch is engaged is activate what is now known as variable valve timing. Basically this means that instead of relying on mechanical timing components the "brain" takes over. As previously stated the car will shift at higher RPM, you could say this is like a sport mode that allows the car to produce maximum power.

The maximum tosing capacity of the 2007 Toyota RAV4 is 1500 lbs..

You hold the Black button on the keyfob in for 10 seconds. Repeat if necessary to register the keyfob to the alarm system.

Sounds like you need 2 get a new transmission!!make sure its not the netural switch heres how you test if its that if the car moves a little and your rev upto 5 then let go of the gas and see if the gear kicks in if it does that is the neuttal switch !

The 2006 Toyota RAV4 has a "Roc Lock 2" rear wiper arm attachment which is actually quite easy to change once you find the hard-to-find correct rear wiper blade. See related links below for information on the replacement rear wiper and for installation videos.

if it is a 4wd you need to remove the engine from the vehicle

I don't understand this question... I have a 95 Nissan max slammed on 20s with no problem.....

i have done this job and its a pain in the butt big time. first you pull the tire and the get the brakes and caliper and bracket off. then you need to pull the tie rod end with a puller which you can rent from the store and you will need a axle pusher which you need to get a larger one then a normal one. 4 wheel drive because the lug pattern is to big for the small one. then you need to get the lower ball joint nut and pull that off the control arm. now its ready to get the axle to slide out of the wheel bearing. and there are two different ones make sure you get the right one. the axle i had stuck really bad had to use heat and penetrating oil to get that lose then the bearing was seized and had to heat that and keep banging that with a hammer to get it out. i found evpo-rust works really good for rust,takes about 2-4 hours to get stuff lose but its worth it if you dont have to bang your fingers and burn your truck. found it online and autozone is where i got it in maine.

Not sure what you mean "bad".

The timing belt tends to be OK or totally stuffed (stripped, broken). As the Rav4 runs an interference motor, if the belt lets go the pistons hit the valves & destroy the motor. If your timing belt has let go the motor will either turn over really quick due to no compression or not at all due to being seized (pistons jamming on valves).

The timing belt never gives any warning or sign of imminent failure - one moment it's fine, the next - disaster..

You need to replace it every 100000km or so to avoid this...

As long as it does not "ping" excessively

Always check with the Toyota Dealer to make sure.

If your check engine light is on - get the engine checked by a qualified mechanic - don't try turning the light off - it is telling you there is a fault in your engine.

Follow the single air/vacuum tubes, one coming from the side of modulator and the other from the side the of the egr valve (these are disc on top of the engine near the firewall. These two single tubes enter a shaft near the middle of fire wall come out and go under the engine. At the end of them you will find the VSV. It is hard to get at.

The 2005 Toyota RAV4 takes a 22" drivers side, 19" passenger side and a fairly specialized 12" rear wiper that is difficult to find in the stores. See sources and related links below for more information. Since there are currently over 22 different wiper arm attachments, do not buy wipers just by length only - be sure to lookup exact wiper blade part numbers by vehicle make, model and year for the brand wiper you decide to purchase. This ensures correct length AND correct attachment.

Actually uses a chain. Doesnt require periodic changing like a belt.

The 2004 Toyota RAV4's turning circle is 35.4 ft..

4 2/5 quarts

First, the battery needs to be disconnected...Safety first. Second, remove the electrical connector from the side of the starter. Third, remove the nut holding the ground wire (below connector). Fourth, remove the two bolts that hold the starter. Pull the starter away from the engine block. You may need to twist and turn it a little to get it around some of the wires and hoses. Install in reverse order.

Only if you run it in 4wheel drive mode, then it will eat more gas.

Trouble code P0172 means: System too rich (Bank 1)
