I too just bought a new 2007 RAV4 Limited with the JBL stereo and have ordered the Sirius radio installation. Is there anything else since Oct that you can share with me. What I'm reading says maybe I don't want them to do anything with it. Thanks.

You are not alone, a lot of other 06 & 07 RAV4 owners are having this problem. Pick up a PAC SNI-1/3.5 Noise Filter, it solves the problem for under $20. Works great!

Any Toyo dealer will handle repairs and warranty items. In fact, they love the business because they get paid for warranty work by the factory. You'll receive the same service from any dealer, even if you didn't purchase the car there.

I found the noise filter that fandsw was talking about at Crutchfield, and it works fantastic. Thanks for the info Fandsw.

NAV options on RAV4?

Hello,
I'm shopping for a new small SUV. I like the RAV4 but it doesn't have an integrated navigation system as an option (it does have bluetooth).
Does anyone know of aftermarket navigation options. I found a Pioneer system (bluetooth integration, MP3 server, back-up camera) that looks promising but it is difficult to know whether it will "fit".
I would be willing to spend up to about $2500.
Thanks.

I too was thinking of that car and NAV is the issue...i really want one... so now looking at Honda CRV and Acura RDX...check with circuit city and they will tell you exactly which after mkt fit the RAV4. I didn't get that far yet. Good luck and let me know what you find out.

I recently bought a 2007 Limited RAV4 with bluetooth. It works flawlessly with my LG Chocolate phone. For my navigation system I bought a Garmin Nuvi 350 which has text to speech technology and mounts securely on the windshield and plugs into the lighter socket. The mounting bracket can be left on full time as the unit clips in very easily and is automatically turned on when you start the car. It can also be used to navigate cities on foot by slipping it into your pocket for a walking tour in larger cities. There is a newer model out now that has Bluetooth capabilities (Nuvi 360), but the 350 works so well with its own built in speaker I don't see the need for it. I bought it online for under $500 and couldn't be happier with the way it works. The windshield mount is a heavy duty suction cup that can be switched between vehicles.

I recently purchased the above Garmin GPS and it is as good as troutguy says it is. We live in the Chicago area and we will be relocating to Texas (please, don't ask why-family down there) after my wife retires in less than 2 years. We went house shopping and the Garmin was a God send. Just punch in your location and watch the screen and listen to the prompts and you'll never get lost. I paid only $350 for it.
I'm also shopping for a 2007 Rav4 V6 Sport and got a deal of $500 over "invoice", as they say. The salesman is a friend of mine, also. I think they have their limits. Is there anything that I should look for or avoid, of course I like the performance of the V6. I test drove it in the rain and it handled very well and it was the 2WD model. If any of you can give me a heads up on it, I would appreciate it.
Thanks
