@LXG8R, thanks for the update, and sorry to see that. Let us know if they nail down the exact cause. Are you replacing with a remanufactured unit or having them rebuild yours? Whichever route you take, please let us know the cost. Also, did the stalling issue occur just the one time or multiple...
@2001LC, thanks for the input. It seems operating temp didn't have an effect when the truck had the issue. The very first time the stall occurred was last Friday, and my daughter had been driving for over an hour with no issues. As she approached a stop light, the truck started acting strange...
@LXG8R, thanks for the reply. I have some news that will be of interest to you.
First, over the weekend, the truck was scanned for codes - none were logged or pending. The tranny fluid was at the proper level, was the proper color and smelled like it should. The engine ran perfectly fine in...
@NOSAJ, am I correct in assuming the stalling issue has not recurred since the MAF install and getting out on the highway in April? Can you provide an update? My daughter's 2001 with 165k just started with the same issue. I'm reviewing this and the other similar threads prior to looking at it in...
Thanks elk. My dad has a 2006 Avalon with the same nav and never had a problem with it. As long as the climate control works (and this one works great) and she has her android in the dash mount, she's good to go. The entire vehicle has been very well kept and now that we have answers/info from...
Thanks Taco. I didn't think the frame was too bad - I think the pic makes it look worse than reality. Why would you avoid the factory NAV?
Thanks El Cid. Your comment about an SUV not being overkill is exactly why my daughter is looking for a Cruiser. Also agree on the suspension...
My daughter is in the market for a 100 and we looked at one this morning that has the same type of clunk Olcay Artis described. I found the below thread and it seems no one has a definitive answer, but one of the members has been driving with the clunk for 5 years and has stopped worrying about...
Thanks BullElk. Agree on the boots...both are like that. Didn't notice any clicking, but we'd address them right away.
Researched the clunk further and found the below threads. No one seems to have an answer, but one member in the first thread has been driving with it for several years now and...
Thanks gents, much appreciated.
Just got back from looking at the vehicle. That thing is indeed a tank. Interior and inner workings in very good condition. The guy is second owner (purchased in 2004), never had kids and it's mainly been his wife's vehicle. They towed a small boat for a few...
