I didn't take a video unfortunately. There are no weird sounds or noises. I will try to take a video. I'm not really sure if it will be that helpful as it isn't something you can see but rather you can feel in the brake pedal and the overall ride.
So this morning, I followed an advice from one of the Facebook groups about raising the hood adjusters (rubber screws) and it worked. I did try this in the past and it didn't help. The reason was that I was a little gentle with the hood when trying to close. When it didn't fully latch, I would...
Besides the vibration others report as well, my OT has some sort of a random sluggish braking. When approaching a full stop with the brake depressed and very close to stopping, you feel the brake is jerking (rotors issues?). Is anyone experiencing the same?
This is promising, thank you for sharing. If possible, could you please provide any details (parts #s or the actual work order)? This will help many of us with their dealers.
Hi and welcome to the forum!
1) I have an OT. I didn't sit in the back but I did ask the kids (teenagers) before and they were absolutely fine. I asked them because I was reading about some complaining about weak AC.
2) No experience with the GX550 rock rails, sorry.
3) I drove both models, I...
I had the same error before delivery. I did some online search and contacted my salesperson. I found other Toyota buyers talking about the same error before delivery. My salesperson was familiar with the same and indicated that this is normal as they turn off some systems during shipping. It was...
I didn't remove the insulation cover. I couldn't get some of those pushpins out but I will sure take a pic if I can remove the cover. The pushpins are a little flimsy.
@Martyt Congratulations, happy for you!! For the hood shake, would you be able to check how high/low the two rubber stops at each side of the hood front? They are rubber "screws" that go up or down. I am wondering how many loops are shown or if you can measure, it would be great. Here is a...
True but I wasn’t sure what others may have paid for the same. Dealers try to get as much profit with these plans and sometimes are more than what you would have actually paid by visit, which they claim the opposite. I have no clue for example what a regular and a major (like 30k mile) service...
I most probably won't buy a prepaid maintenance plan but just curious what is considered a good price for 50K mile/5 year plan, any idea? This would be 8 visits after the complimentary service. Thanks!
Thanks! I hope they fix it for your quickly. Are these the two small cushion/plastic pieces on each side that are part of the body of the truck not the hood and you can adjust their height by hand? Or is it the lining piece glued to the hood?
Was the vibration mostly in the
I can feel your frustration, sorry. Was the vibration mostly in the steering wheel or all over the vehicle like seats...etc?
For those that already have the truck and the hood shaking issue, have you tried to adjust the hood cushions/stoppers? It seems to be a common issue with newer cars especially those with Aluminum hoods. There are a few YouTube videos talking about this. I'm not sure if it applies to the 550 though.
Thank you! Yeah, this is going to be challenging with the cool box. It is probably too early to ask but how the MPG is. My main concern is the range; we all know the MPG isn't great but I was wondering if the 15/21 is true to the real world or it is more of 13 or so in the city.
@Ben O and @skicar, how is storage, especially if you have the cool box? I'm talking about things like sunglasses and other small things that you may need to have handy while driving. Enjoy this beast!
