#33 of 41 Any problems with the 09 Nav system including it's voice recognition? by jwbooth Jun 25, 2009 (3:24 pm)
I see tons of posts with major complaints thru the 08 Avalons, and then there are almost no posts beginning in 09.   Did Toyota change/upgrade the Nav system including the voice recognition?   Just test drove an 09 Avalon Limited with nav and loved it, but now considering passing if the Nav system is still a piece of junk.   09 owners - are you happy with it?
#34 of 41 Panel light by rscofield Oct 06, 2009 (1:36 pm)
My wife just called and says her '09 Avalon has a red light in shape of a car with black line thru it. Only on when car is Off! It's in upper RH corner of instrument panel. Anyone know what this is? Said she checked owners manual but did not find it. Russ Replies to this message: fin (Oct 06, 2009 7:58 pm) rscofield (Oct 07, 2009 2:44 am)

Replying to: rscofield (Oct 06, 2009 1:36 pm) Not sure what page the info might be on in the manual as mine is an '07 but the light is probably the same... The red outline is a car, yes, and the black line is a key. If the light stays on it means the car is locked. If the light is blinking, the car is UNlocked. It does not light up at all if the engine is running. Hope this helps. Replies to this message: rscofield (Oct 07, 2009 2:44 am)

Replying to: fin (Oct 06, 2009 7:58 pm) That's it! She has had the car for 3 mo's and calls me from the Mall in a panic. I have asked her to sit and read her manual but you how that goes. Thankk you! Russ   BTW: I called the dealer and their answer was, "If it's not on while the engine is running - drive the car".
#37 of 41 Fog light question by 06graylimited Oct 24, 2009 (12:48 pm)
I wondered if anyone has replaced their foglights with the "HID" foglight kits that you can buy on Ebay. My '09 Limited has the HID headlights but "regular" foglights Replies to this message: wwest (Oct 26, 2009 8:57 am) 06graylimited (Nov 02, 2009 4:55 pm) wwest (Nov 03, 2009 10:29 am)

Replying to: wwest (Oct 26, 2009 8:57 am) I'm not looking for more "bling" but rather a fog light that matches the very bright white shade of light that the HID headlights emit. So NOW you know. Replies to this message: wwest (Nov 03, 2009 10:29 am)

Replying to: 06graylimited (Nov 02, 2009 4:55 pm) Use of fog lights along with main beams will be detrimental to your night distance vision at roadspeeds that require the use of the main beams.   Most state laws REQUIRE the use of main beams for the hours 30 mintes after sunset until 30 prior to sunrise.   Leaving the only LOGICAL use of fog lights being daytime foggy/low light conditions.   "...light that matches..."   So, who's to notice..?? Only those oncoming drivers who you will mostly NEVER know or meet. Unless one of them gets pissed off enough to chase you down.   Fog lights are much more functional in conditions of need if that have a slight amber tint.

If I thought it would help, I would recommend treatment.
