I just went to the dealer, and test drove another hightlander, as if I was looking to buy. You have to do what you have to do.

We are waiting with bated breath Gary to see what you came up with after test driving another Highlander at another Dealer. You did what I was going to suggest when you first said they probably would be reluctant to let you test drive another Highlander, at the dealership where you bought your wheels.

We were finally able to fix the problem and the cost was....$0! Found some info online about how to take part of the dashboard off and reconnect the wires that enable the heat dial. Took all of 30 minutes and we did it ourselves. Below is the website we used as guidance. It looks like several people have had this problem and fixed it themselves. I am going to call Toyota USA and the dealership and raise some hell. Can't believe they would have taken $900 from us to replace the entire heating system when this is all it needed. The heat/ac work just fine now. Hope this helps. http://www.tundrasolutions.com/forums/highlander/32217-heater-quit-sort-of/

Thanks for that link eben1!
Another great source of info for a car that has so few problems. I bought the extended warranty and the posts about this $900 heater problem was a contributing reason.
I also bought the "money back on extended warranty if not used" and hoping to cash in on that. Have about 63,000 miles so far with no problems whatsoever.

How much was the warrant and was it a Toyota warranty or another company?

I just spoke with a service rep at the toyota dealer here in ft. wayne. He recommended against cleaning it. He said the "check engine" light would probably go on again "soon." Does anyone have any experience with having the AF sensor cleaned vs replaced (he's quoting me $322 for replacement)?

I have a 2005 highlander and just started hearing a clunking noise in the steering column. You mentioned that there is a fix for this. Could you pass along the details?
thanks
