#10932 of 10945 window resonance by ryan99 Sep 27, 2009 (2:34 pm)
Hi all, My wife and I just traded in our 200k camry for an 04 Highlander. We love the vehicle but are shocked at the resonance with 1 or 2 rear windows down or the moonroof open. We have kids in the back so it can be a problem. Has anyone tried to rectify it with rain gaurds on the windows or sunroof? if so how were the results? Thanks in advance, Ryan Replies to this message: grahampeters (Sep 27, 2009 2:58 pm) phrosut (Sep 28, 2009 11:02 am) lmacmil (Sep 28, 2009 1:56 pm) ryan99 (Sep 28, 2009 4:46 pm) phrosut (Sep 29, 2009 8:20 am) and 1 more...

Replying to: ryan99 (Sep 27, 2009 2:34 pm) G'day   The noise when you wind down a rear window without winding down a front one is a bit of a shock. Unfortunately, the only fix seems to be to make sure you wind a front window down first. Training the kids does not take long as they complain harder than the parents over the buffeting!   Cheers   Graham

Replying to: ryan99 (Sep 27, 2009 2:34 pm) I believe wwest posted some time ago that if you remove the rubber check-valves in the rear side panels it stops most of the buffetting. He may see this and chime in.   Phil

Replying to: ryan99 (Sep 27, 2009 2:34 pm) This affects all SUV/crossovers. Our Ford Explorer did the same thing. Replies to this message: ryan99 (Sep 28, 2009 4:46 pm) phrosut (Sep 29, 2009 8:20 am) ryan99 (Oct 17, 2009 4:06 pm)

Replying to: lmacmil (Sep 28, 2009 1:56 pm) Thanks for the replys everybody. I have owned a Jeep Cherokee for 8 years and just today noticed it does the same thing! Not as bad as the highlander though...Where are these rubber check valves located? inside or out? On the doors or rear panels?

Replying to: ryan99 (Sep 28, 2009 4:46 pm) Those rubber check panels are located on the inside of the rear side panels IIRC. I haven't done this mod, I just remember wwest explaining how to do it. Find where the vent grille is and the check panels are directly behind it.   We never use the moonroof and never lower the rear side windows, so it's been a non-issue for us.   Phil Replies to this message: ryan99 (Oct 17, 2009 4:06 pm)
#10938 of 10945 2009 LTD Remote Engine Start? by ghost2010 Sep 30, 2009 (8:42 pm)
Can someone tell me if the 2009 Hgihlander Limited comes standard with a remote engine start? A buddy of mine said it comes standard with the remote engine start. Can I see KBB mention it breifly saying it's included in the engine immobilizer feature on the Limited. But I don't see the remote engine start mentioned as a starndard feature on Edmunds or anywhere else.

Replying to: phrosut (Sep 29, 2009 8:20 am) I added a sunroof wind deflector and "normalized" the moonroof. This seems to have taken care of 95% of the problem. It's bearable now.
#10940 of 10945 05 highlander disc rotor removal by drhagenmayer Nov 15, 2009 (7:54 am)
Does anyone know screw thread size that is used to remove the disc rotors. There are two threaded holes in each rotor that are used for this purpose. Also any tips on removing the rotors that are really rusted on. Replies to this message: wwest (Nov 15, 2009 8:34 am) smallv (Nov 15, 2009 5:33 pm) wwest (Nov 20, 2009 9:32 am)

Replying to: drhagenmayer (Nov 15, 2009 7:54 am) The bolts than held the calipers in place work.
