Hello friends of the 1st generation! My 97er Rav4 jerks briefly during load change, especially when it is cold quite strong, but even if it is warm, so when taking gas away from constant speed, and when giving gas out of the sliding operation. Does anyone have any idea what that can be? throttle valve, false air, vacuum hose leaks? I really have no idea of old petrol engines… Besides, it turns the first minutes at cold start with 2000 revolutions! When the engine gets warm, go At some point it slowly descends to 800. Can it lie on the temperature sensor? Sit the right side of the tower? The left side of the two grey parts? Or the right side? Thank you and lb. Greetings, Stefan

Moin moin, dear Foris ! I’m new here and have a few questions. I took over the car mentioned in the headline in May 2013. Before I drove a Passat Kombi and the change to the RAV was a great experience. What does RAV actually stand for ? Road Adventure Vehicle ? Does the car belong to the category SUV or not ? I have now “cracked” the 100T km and now my car wants a new two-mass swing wheel. Is this only possible in the workshop, or does the Possibility that a professional, if I get the necessary parts, can get this repair alone ? I know the complete machine must go out and it will cost about 2000 €. I am looking forward to your answers . Greetings, Karin

It is even worse, as any communication has been denied by Toyota for weeks. For this reason, I ask you to help me.

Hello, it’s about RAV 4 year 2001. Problem: only 2 keys included. Main key with FB broke years ago. Unfortunately, the ordered replacement of an intelligence bolt was canceled. Now the only remaining inexplicable disappeared. Not to be found. Please don’t hit the wrong one now, is not my car anyway. Toyota wants 2000 euros to replace all locks, ignition lock and probably also control unit. Must be made supposedly so, if There is no more key. Other manufacturers can do it without it. Does someone have alternative tips? What are the chances of buying everything you need on the internet or, if necessary, in the forum? What do you need everything? Scrapyards with us unfortunately have nothing at all. Since I didn’t lay the key on my own, I could imagine that it might be in the car. Can you get in there without rough motor skills? If, how? Thanks for serious help in advance.

I don’t want to keep this from you. I read it in the bush taxi this morning. It was about the theft of an LC J12 from 2008 which probably already runs with Cyrillic letters. ———————————————————— People, please don’t lock it by radio at a distance, stand next to the door and press the closing button (J15/20). Please learn a third key, then take the battery from the transponder and keep it in the vault. I don’t explain now, wo But that’s more difficult for the Eastcrackers. Set up a second alarm system with demobilizer via GSM and provide alarm in case of need of 120dB(A), once outside and once inside…… …believe me, that helps to 99%!!! ———————————————————— I thought it was a tip. – I didn’t think about locking up/locking up at a distance, but logically, so they can scan the radio waves worse or not at all. – Alarm system as a deterrent ok, with GSM/ GPS Tra even better ONLY, I asked myself today, there are now jammers for it, so useless for GPS tracking. – that with the key is to consider, he will know why he does not write how and why this is ok 🙂 Gruss Steffen

Hello, I have recently had problems with my lighting system! Only the turn signal started to race on the left then occasionally on the right! Then the control light went on for the fog light and could not be switched off after a few turns off! Then loud buzzing noises came from the back left when I press the turn signal! When the engine turned off, the control light for the fog light lit up for quite some time! I changed the light switch on the steering wheel and changed the S clipper for the rear fog lamp! Didn’t help anything except that the control is out! Now the dipped-beam also no longer works! Who has an idea where to look? I suspect humidity but where? Towing hitch ? Greetings Olaf

Hello, can someone please tell me where can I buy rear glider plate for RAV4 AX3 (2007)? It’s so hard to find tuning parts for RAV4….or ? LG

Good day to everyone, drive this week a Toyota Rav 4 in the version with 3 doors (facelift) and look at it as an automatic transmission possibly if everything works. Would like to ask you where I have to pay special attention to it. According to the dealer, the car has been driven by an older man about 60-65 years has a full equipment with sliding roof, leather, color Navi, trailer coupling, all-weather tires, check booklet and a 1 year old used car warranty with it. The car is from the year 200 4 and has run about 80Tkm and is accident-free. Can you possibly call me weak places where you have to pay particular attention to the model ?! I thank you very much in advance, Mfg

Moin, how are your experiences / opinions on the topic : with the OMMS and longlife oil 2 years, like manufacturer specifications, drive or still prefer to switch at 15,000 intervals with possibly other oil types ? Have a driving profile from 35 to 90 km per driving distance and can not smell a diesel grouch in the oil at the oil level measurement. Colour has become a bit darker already.

Hello, my parents were just looking at the Toyota dealer around the new RAV 4 for my mother. Of course a diesel. Is it really the case that there is no automatic in the diesel for the new RAV 4. Neither with the small machine (believe 126hp) nor with the large 177hp machine? Unfortunately the configurator at Toyota does not work and with mobile I did not find one with automatic! MFG, Alex
