Replying to: hngdiep (Jan 16, 2007 9:12 pm) Here is your solution:   http://rav4world.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=7423&highlight=rattle+passenger+mirr- - or   or go to rav4world and do a search on "rattle passenger mirror" and someone posted a "fix" for it. Go to Jeff Warkentin's album to see the picture of the piece he removed. Sounds like it has worked for several people with the same issue.
#458 of 768 Toyota RAV4 Automatic Transmission Fluid by dgaul Jan 14, 2007 (11:59 am)
The owner's manual for my 2002 Toyota RAV4 states that I am to use Toyota brand ATF only, or damage to the transmission could occer. I just changed the ATF, using Castrol Dexron-III, Mercon, ATF. (I used this brand because the Haynes Repair Manual I own said any Dexron-III ATF is acceptable.) Is there really a chance I could damage my transmission by not using Toyota ATF? Is there really adifference in the Toyota and Castrol brands of ATF?
#460 of 768 2001 Rav4 check engine light - WON'T go off! by amy11 Jan 09, 2007 (4:47 pm)
I took my 2001 Rav4 in over 2 weeks ago b/c check engine light was on. Computer read code p1349 - vvt ($814.00 repair). Service tech called when repair finished & said they needed to keep it b/c light came back on. They supposedley found a part not put back on correctly (scary), they fixed it & I went to pick it up. I drove it about 1 mile & light came on. I took it right back to dealer, they (supposedly) found a bad sensor. Replaced, light still on. I am about out of patience. They won't admit it, but I do not believe they know what to do. Any similar experiences/ideas/suggestions??

#462 of 768 Toyota - Gas Pedal Stuck - RAV4 and Camry by amm625 Jan 25, 2007 (8:31 am)
">My 2002 RAV 4 standard had the gas pedal stick this morning- up to 7000rpms - in various gears. Scary! AND yesterday a friend had the same situation with her 2001 Camry automatic.   Is this a trend? A recall issue? Anyone else have this problem? How did you solve it?     Hope it doesn't cost a fortune... Thanks! AMM Replies to this message: mcdawgg (Jan 25, 2007 9:18 am) pat (Jan 25, 2007 9:41 am) amm625 (Jan 25, 2007 7:22 pm)

Replying to: amm625 (Jan 25, 2007 8:31 am) Need more details, but if this is true, I think 7,000 is above redline, so you may really have problems. But if I am understanding correctly, you say in various gears, so I am guessing that this happened several times!?!?   Here's what I can guess: you disengaged the clutch and took your foot off the gas, but the rpm's went up to (you say 7,000), you shifted, released the clutch, then did this again next time you disengaged the clutch.   Either the floor mat is catching the accelerator, or the the throttle body is very dirty, or ???   No, not a trend at all, and this is the first I have ever heard. By the way, this is a COROLLA forum. Replies to this message: pat (Jan 25, 2007 9:41 am) amm625 (Jan 25, 2007 7:22 pm)
