Possible Venza Transmission Defect? by allisonian
Jul 22, 2009 (3:06 pm)
Reply
Have my Venza AWD V6 for 2 months/3000 mil. Silky smooth for two weeks. Then Unusual griding/clunk noice with every shifting(P to R or D). Particularly bad in the morning. The noice is getting worse. 3 days ago, the car would not move for more than 2 minute on Reverse when start in the morning. The VSC sign stayed on. Turned off engine/ restarted, the car moved. In the afternoon, the car would not move for more than 15 seconds on Drive, then jumped forward all the sudden. What a let down for this expensive Toyota (traded in a 2000 Avalon).
 
The Tech confirmed the unusual noice but not the other problem and said that other new Venza also have similar noice issues I knew other venza owners in this forum reported similar problems with the transmission and start up. Manufacture defect?
Toyota needs to get to the buttom of this.
 
I do not feel safe driving the Venza with an erractic transmission. I will report back with more info as well as the repair results.

Hi,
 
I was wondering does anyone know if the Navigation can read or play DVD movies?
 
Thanks in advance

I hope Sienna's stick around. I will need a steady supply of them for the next 14 years.

I understand that the nav system can play dvd movies but the car must be in Park and the emergency brake must be on. You have to of course remove your nav dvd. It's in the manual. Hope this helps.

My navigation doesn't even have the DVD option on the menu. Does anyone have the DVD option on their Navigation?

I don't have either. I also tried to put a DVD on the navigation DVD player but the DVD player could recognize the NEMO movie...so salesman was wrong...

Hey Norm,
 
So did you get it work at all or the option is just not available? I called the service guy at my dealership and he told me the same thing as the manual and Rdeason stated which is, engine on with emergency brake on and it can play dvds . I tried it and it didn't work. Any luck anyone?
 
Thanks

Cargo layout... by ykckby
Aug 26, 2009 (6:56 am)
Reply
I can not tell from the pictures and would appreciate someone answering this question please.
 
When one puts the back seats down, maximizing the cargo area, do they lie flat? Is the entire cargo area flat or is it like my CRV where it slants upward on the seat backs going toward the front seats. Wierd explanation but I'm sure you understand what I mean if you own one.
 
Thanks
