so... what's stopping me from moving that panel and replacing the cabin air filters that way? I have already ordered my filters and I have no need to replace the housing at the moment. Maybe I'm misunderstanding something.

I am sure this question has been asked dozens of times, but I promise you I have done my research. I went to go replace my cabin air filter yesterday to find that the door that all videos were using didn't exist on my 2007 Cruiser. See attached photo. I did some searching around and found...

I use my seat heater too. It's still too cold and I am barely able to feel it on most mornings with my short commute.

I hope everyone is doing well. I have an issue with my Toyota LC100 that I've had for a while, but it's finally starting to annoy me. I'll start of by mentioning that my commute is roughly 2.5 miles and its it about a 10 minute drive. Winter has been pretty chilly in my area, ranging between 30...

Yet another questions relating to my air conditioning system in my 2007 100 series LC. Everytime I start my car or the AC gets turned on, I am hit with a temporary wave of really humid air and musty smell. This goes away after around 15 seconds. It does seem to be getting slightly worse and for...

Not sure if leaked again but when I drove it to work in 95° heat it took a good 15 minutes for it to be relatively tolerable. Do you think it needs more pressure?

I added another can and the high was 300psi.

Thanks for your input. This is greatly appreciated. I decided to use my leftover 3/4 can of R134a to fill it up to see if it made any difference and it seems colder. I think what you said is likely correct. Heres a few photos: Original Pressure with car off. Original pressure with ac running...

I did some testing tonight to see if I could figure anything out. Still at a roadblock and I am looking for help. :) Heres a few photos and videos I took just to give you a sense. A few things: -The compressor wrrring isn't something I've recognized. Typically, it puts more load on the engine...

Ill start sniffing and see what I can find. But it there was a leak, it wouldn't be sudden, correct? Do you happen to know where I could find the normal pressure for both lines? Is there a chart or something somewhere?

Means that it has refrigerant and should start. When the car is off, the low side sat around 50psi. Not yet. Im thinking the caps I put on are culprit? Could you tell me what this means? Thanks. I appreciate it.

I did the rear a/c delete around 10 months ago and my air conditioning had been working great until a few days ago where it suddenly stopped working. I did the basic troubleshooting steps I could, the pressure in the lines was good, and the high side pressurized to where it should, the clutch...

Yeah no worries. There was some resistance, they didnt spin forever but I didn't think it was super unusual.

I said in my original post "Ive also tried spinning each wheel while in neutral and there seems to be a similar amount of resistance for all 4 wheels." Nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

It definitely got rougher during the winter. There were some weeks where is would go between 8 and 10 MPG. As it starts to warm up, ive been getting pretty consistent 12.7MPG. I typically avoid idling my car for long periods of times since it makes my MPG go down. My commute isn't very long...
