Alarm goes off after oil change-Highlander sports 2008 by robnadar

After the "oil maintenance required" message popped up in my Multi-Information Display, I had my dealer to do oil maintenance last Saturday. On Sunday and Monday the alarm went off for 4 times. Every time I had to use the remote to stop it. It never happened before in my 18 months of ownership. Just wondering whether this has to do with the visit to the Dealer.
 
Any reply / information will highly be appreciated.

I have driven about 3750 miles in my new 09 highlander after having bought it last May. when should i take it for my first service?
 
Read and understand your owner's manuals, that information is in there. If you're not familiar with it and you go to the dealer for service, you will end up having all kinds of un-necessary maintenance done.

Your dealer should reset it for you during service. Mine always has.

side mirror heater/defrost by mpolan

Does anyone know how the side mirror defrosts work or have a schematic? My driver's side mirror doesn't heat up and I can only find 3 wires going to the mirror - which seem to be for the adjusting motors.
 
Apologies if this is a repeat - I thought I'd asked this before but couldn't find my original post.

Sorry, I should have been more descriptive. I meant Burglar or intrusion alarm.

I have a 2008 highlander. Hopefully it is the same.The manual says.
1. On cars with manual air conditioning system. Turn on the rear window defogger. it is located on the bottom right of dash
2. Cars with automatic air conditioning system also turn on rear defogger. This shows !!! plus mirrors on control..
Both run about 15 mins & shut off
 
Hope this helps

I just had my rear left and right wheel bearing replaced by my dealer this week.
 
My Highlander is a 2004 with 66500KM.
 
The Left side was so lose and loud that they did not discover the right side until they test drove it after replacement of the left side, then they scheduled me to replace the right side.
 
I have extended coverage so it was covered, but apparently it would have cost me big time.
 
Sounds and runs great now, hope these bearings last more than 60000km
