Thanks for all your reply. It turns out that it was a misunderstanding. The repair is not done yet. Dealer will notify me when parts arrive in 2 weeks. Advisor told me after I complained.

I just had my OT squeaky brake repair done a couple days ago. It still has squeaky sound and becomes louder and louder. I uploaded a video and sent to dealer. This is fixed based on TSB L-SB-0053-25 CODE BR2505. Anyone had repair work done before and if this fix worked for you? Is it a bad...

Good to know that removing the skid was very easy. Thanks.

Sorry for the windshield. For the place you live in, I may just give up driving at all.

New car's alignment is sometimes off. Just get alignment next time. I noticed uneven wear for my 5K service on one tire. Dealer inspection report says 4 tires all at 10/32 which is BS. I measured myself before service. I guess they are trying to avoid warranty on tires for first year.

How do you not drop front skid plate? You have OT? Oil pan is covered under skid plate.

This is only oil change or including inspections. Sorry to mention, this is 5K with free maintenance, tire rotation and inspections. I just added additional oil change.

This is only 5K oil change. I have several items need dealer to fix as part of warranty.

$93 for 8 QT of oil. I think retail price of 0w20 per QT toyota oil is around $8. Labor $98. Free around trip Uber rides. SF Bay Area. Too expensive?

I went for service 5k and mentioned squeaky break today. Dealer inspected and immediately fixed it. However, when I look at the invoice, it shows a different OP CODE BR2505. This is different than TSB originally posted (see attachment) with OP CODE BR2404. Anyone has update TSB with BR2505...

It depends on your use cases: 1. TRD pro is part time 4WD. If you are off road 90% of time and 10% on road, TRD PRO is better. Otherwise, you are going to drive the car in 2WD 90% on road in TRD PRO. GX 550 is Full Time 4WD with LSD, it is better on road if you prefer 4WD. 2. TRD pro...

If you get car sick in minivans or your wife’s old 2005 rx350, Body on Frame trucks are not the right car for you. You should get a unibody sedan such as LS500 which has more comfort drive with same powertrain.

V35A-FTS takes a lot of work to change spark plugs. You should check the youtube video. I think the most cost is on spark plug change. Spark plug is 1/3 life time of 2GR engines. Turbo destroys anything faster.
