You are in the Toyota Highlander Forum. Your Hosts are steve_ & tidester
My wife aren't sure, and we can't seem to put our finger on it. Our other car is a 2003 Odyssey, and we just purchased a 2007 HL V6 AWD. We both are having a hard time getting use to the HL's side view mirrors. We've changed it to our correct views, but when driving it feels like we are missing something. A certain view? Angle? We just don't know. Does anyone know if the side view mirrors are that much different that they show a different angle or what not?

Replying to: tix (Aug 08, 2007 6:32 am) so, I think it's worth it. Especially if you are planning to use your vehicle for next few years, with an opening like that it can damage your interior from moisture, rain, etc.. I know all about not so great experience with Toyota USA. My problem was fuel injection related and missed warranty by just few hundred miles. Of course, they didn't want to pay for it. I was very diligent and was able to recover half of repair cost from Toyota. Many new vehicle nowdays, not just Toyota are so complicated with electronics,NAV, Rearview camera etc..As long as it's reasonable it might not be a bad idea to buy extended warranty. good luck |

Thanks for the advice and concern. The sunroof is closed as much as possible without doing the full $1500 repair. There is only a small gap, so the duct tape does the trick. I am having fun changing the duct tape color as it wears out. I have a white car, so anything goes. I view it as "accessorizing " my car, and it also helps advertise the issue and provokes questions about "how do you like your Highlander?.' I am doing my part of representing Toyota as they wish to be viewed. -ha ha. But I am still open to any suggestions for a more efficient solution.

| Yes. No one wants to touch the thing. Its difficult to get to the motor. But thank you for the suggestion. | |

Greetings: I have a 2007 HH Limited w/Nav. The compass is usually located in the rear view mirror except for those models w/nav. I have looked through the nav manual but see no reference to the compass. There must be one somewhere as it is required to guide you to your destination. The only visual reference to direction is the little 'N' icon which I assume is North. My car is parked in the driveway and pointing West so this 'N' (North?) may not be correct. Any assistance from those with Nav would be greatly appreciated. Regards - M. J. McCloskey
