#3572 of 3943 Whistling sound in new '08 highlander hybrid by newsy2 Apr 11, 2008 (10:11 pm)
My car has 1400 miles. Today I heard on and off a whistling noise coming from the back of the car. I was on a dirt road for a short period of time before the sound occured. I can't tell if it was related to the engine or something in the rear wipers or something else. the sound did go away after a while. i'm not sure if it will stay away. any thoughts? thanks/ Replies to this message: cdptrap (Apr 12, 2008 12:19 am) cdptrap (Apr 14, 2008 9:32 am)

THat may be what you are hearing?   If you have the energy display, see if the sound returns when the car is in full electric mode. Replies to this message: cdptrap (Apr 14, 2008 9:32 am)
#3574 of 3943 Where do I find maintenance schedule? by sxnhe Apr 12, 2008 (6:26 am)
Hello, I just got a 2006 Highland hybrid with 42000 miles. I went through the owner's maunal and did not see maintenance schedule. I am wondering if there is a seperate manual for the maintenance schedule. Or can I find it somewhere in the web? Thanks for help. Replies to this message: cdptrap (Apr 14, 2008 9:30 am)

Replying to: wwest (Apr 11, 2008 12:24 pm) Perhaps the better question should have been "is there supposed to be a little spring-loaded flap in the fuel filler neck in the HiHy?" I don't recall seeing one, but i never checked before. I think another possibility would be a supposed "fuel bladder" misplacement? I've tried all kinds of ways to get the nozzle positioned in the filler, but nothing seems to work.   The radio problem is frequent and random, and it just started occurring a couple of weeks ago. I would think that if it were standard RFI i would have noticed it before. Maybe not! Thanks loads for the replies! Replies to this message: nvbanker (Apr 13, 2008 9:35 am)

Replying to: hydro4 (Apr 13, 2008 5:02 am) Your radio problem sounds like the attenna connection has broken some how, or come out of the port. How to check that, I do not know, as I do not have one of these fine automobiles, but what you're describing sounds like weak signal. The antenna hasn't broken off or been stolen, has it?

Replying to: sxnhe (Apr 12, 2008 6:26 am) Yes, there is a separate booklet that has the maintenance schedule. Try the following Toyota link:   http://smg.toyotapartsandservice.com/index.php   You can enter model, year and mileage and it shows the recommended service. It is not precise but it will help.   Good luck!

Replying to: cdptrap (Apr 12, 2008 12:19 am) Just want to add that I can hear the "whirl/whistle" at lower speed when the ICE and the electric motors are both ON. This happens when the motor is helping the ICE to move the car along.

Replying to: newsy2 (Apr 20, 2008 10:41 am) Let us know what kind of mileage you get driving to and from the dealership to get the key replaced.

Replying to: newsy2 (Apr 20, 2008 10:41 am) You need to have car learn the key fob - check you owner's manual - simple procedure. Good luck.
