BTW- acording to Toyota the v6 requires 91 or higher octane and the 4 requires 87 or higher..

Source? You sure it says 91 is required, and not merely recommended?

My owners manual says 87 octane ?????????
 
That's all that I've ever put in it and it runs fine.

I also run 87 and it runs great...I see no reason for higher octane rating. My service adviser says 87 is fine.

yes Im sure. but you can use 87 if you would like but Toyota says 91 or higher on their official ducuments... not in the owners manual. Using 87 is a selling point. Thats why they say use it in the manual. But in reality 91 is what it was calibrated for. Not to worry tho It will run fine on 87

Our other car is a 2003 Accura TL. Manual recommends premium fuel, but we run 87 octane. And 3 different Accura service departments all agreed 87 fine. Just don't get the higher performance. Seems to have good enough performance for us.

Anyone have an issue with brakes grinding in the AM? by ogrerugby
Mar 23, 2007 (6:21 am)
Reply
When I first start driving in the morning, or whenever the car has been sitting for several hours, I can hear the brakes grinding. This problem goes away after a few minutes of driving. It's almost as if there is no brake fluid circulating for a little while. I've noticed this for a while and I only have 11K miles on my 2006 Rav 4.
Thanks for any help.
