| I just finished a trip from Arkansas to Utah, Colorado, and Kansas for a total of 3,214 miles. I'm quite happy with the mpg. The overall was 31.2 mpg. The individual mpgs were: 27.5, 31.2, 31.4, 32.2, 25.4, 31.1, 34.3, 28.2, and 31.2. | |
I believe there has been some discussion in this group about warped rotors. I just had mine machined since the runout was .06mm and .07mm. It became evident when I was driving in Colorado last weekend. Using the breaks after a lot of downhill the car would shake as the breaks were applied and any speed above 60. I have now 32,400+ miles on the car and the repair was under warranty.

My '08 Avalon Ltd has quite a bit of wind noise at speeds above 50mph. I just bought a 2010 Camry for my wife and it is considerably quieter at all speeds. Has anyone else experienced wind noise w/their Avalon or is it a problem w/mine? If so, what was done to rectify the problem. My dealer says it's normal,,,,,

Replying to: tfelton (Aug 13, 2009 7:16 pm) I would say that Avalons probably have to meet a certain noise level during manufacture, but that every vehicle is not equal. |

I found a new 2008 Touring in June, when the auto market was in the dumps. Only problem is the passenger side seat belt rattle. Great mileage and surprising performance for such a large car. I have about 4k on the odo. At 5k, I'll do a synthetic oil change and 5 tire rotation.
