Hi all, My once new 21 HE is now 5 years old and has a little under 25k miles. I drive it once or twice a week so I think it would fall into the "extreme" maintenance category. Anyway, decided to change the diffs and transfer fluid. Watched a few YT vids and decided that valvoline full...

Hi all. Had my 21 HE since she was a newborn with 4 miles on the odo. Now she has 17k and has been driven exclusively on the weekends only. I have noticed that whenever she feels sluggish, an oil change brings her back to life. It takes about a month or two before I have to change the oil. I've...

looks like there is a russian trd lc200 that has the red TRD emblem below the "V8"

Hi fam, Is it just me or is the rear of our lc200 boring with just the "V8" on the right side? I recently saw a pic of the TRD emblem on the 2015 sema lc200 but couldn't find it anywhere. See attached pic. As a result I'm thinking about adding the red TRD badge thats found on the camry/ avalon...

Greetings all, Lifted up my 21 lc recently and saw mucho dust/rust/dirt on my slip yoke shaft. I don't know much about cars but doesn't this shaft move in and out? Car is hardly driven btw. Should I clean it or leave it alone? Excuse my ignorance folks.

Hi all, After 15 mos and 6800miles of ownership, I have come to the conclusion that my silver 21 HE might not be worth all the marbles I put into it. As what is considered the "Best" Toyota product and exclusivity, that pride made me somewhat enjoy the first 12 mos of ownership. After the...

Hey Spaz, All I do is mall crawl. :) Do you think I should reset the steering angle sensor/yaw rate sensor, etc?

Hi Heck, I aligned it last week to specs and afterwards, you had to tilt the steering wheel a couple degrees right in order to go straight. Here are today's numbers. I took a brief test drive after todays alignment, I now have to tilt the wheel left to go straight. Dam my $87,995 toyota!

Hi all, Have a 21 HE that I got last year that I put 6k miles on. Ever since day 1, the steering wheel has never been perfect when driving down a road. Even took it in for a dealer alignment but the end result was the same, not str8. I work at a shop that has a Jim Beam aligner and everytime I...

Hello all. As the title says, had my silver HE since FEB and I absolutely adore it. There are a few very annoying things though: 1)Would the reflash of the trans for the prior LC's apply to mine? Most of the time, I'm hearing clunks during shifting between 1st and 2nd. The early upshifting is...

Hi all, I've had my heritage since feb with no issues except for possibly today. After driving at highway speeds for 30 mins and parking the car, the idle started to fluctuate. At the same time the oil gauge would also move. I don't mean fluctuating nonstop, but drop for a second or two and...

let me know of your results shave. As for me, I have access to an alignment machine so i did a quick alignment meself. Just adjusted toes a wee bit. It's driving straighter...

Hello folks Two quick issues. My New 2021 drifts to the right when the steering is set straight. Any of you have had issues with your new LC having alignment issues? Also, when I got my LC, the dealer said that the LC didn't qualify for toyotacare free 2 oil changes. Were they fibbing...

Hey flyfish, Is the sound bothering you to the extent of wanting to visit ye olde service dept? I'm thinking about waiting for a while, currently 150miles on mine, praying that the sound goes away....

Thanks but I removed the rack as soon as I brought the vehicle home. As for the noise, it's a creaking noise that sounds loudest above the driver's dash and below the windshield. Funny thing is that the sound starts after i've been driving for a while. Also, the seat noise sounds is a metallic...
