3/9/14 - Today: AutoZone - Sylvania Halogen Bulb -$11.90 (10.99 + 91c Tax) for failed driver's side low beam (high beams on both driver's side and passenger side are the 7+ year old factory originals). IIRC, when I replaced the last one, I compared this cost to the OEM Toyota bulb at a dealer....and the OEM bulb was almost 4 x as much.
3/9/14 - Today - 275,441 miles: Toyota dealer installed the Sylvania Halogen Headlight Bulb (service open 9-2), didn't charge me. |

^^^^^ I was attempting to edit post #253 (added the P.S.), and somehow it came out as a new post (I DIDN'T type the body of the post a 2nd time).
....Aha...I forgot to log in BEFORE going to the page. |

I asked the guys at my local O Reilys to install my headlights. My hand is just too big to fit behind the driver side unit :-/

Same thing with the Toyota tech today in the service drive up, trying to reach that little clip...so he pulled the car inside foir a minute and took the headlight off. My hand is too big as well.

brakes are getting a little noisy, passenger side pad, although still having more then 50% material left, looks like it has some stress cracking and pedal feel sucks - ordered new rotors and pads, going to flush all the fluid out as well for future use: 11/5/11 @ 32,500 (purchased shortly before) 4/12/12 @ 50,000 3/15/14 @ 123,494 Last edited by randeez; 03-15-2014 at 03:40 PM. |

3/29/14 -- I thought my first air filter change was at 131,000 + miles, but I noticed in my log book that the first change was at 74,000 + miles. Given this, I'm now somewhat around 'my average' re miles on a filter (replaced at 74k +, 131k + and 208k +)....so I'll probably buy a new air filter next week (now closed for the rest of the weekend, IIRC) at a Toyota dealer and swap it with the old one.

=O I change my air filter + cabin air filter every year! I could probably change my cabin air filter later, but I just don't want any smells in my air.

Expect 100,000 miles with zero problems. 200,000 miles with just a few repairs. And a few other maintenance items through 300,000.

pads still had plenty of material, honestly think I could have gone 200k miles with oem pads- they were just breaking away from the steel backing maybe not broke in properly? discs could have been reused/turned and reused for sure but I wasn't positive what was causing brake shake so I ordered some r1 rotors and hawk pads from micro image. rear brakes I changed awhile ago, upon the advice of tire dick around 100k miles . I looked at them before and they didn't have much material... when he mentioned it I figured mileage had been plenty for oem to change anyway. Went ahead and ordered new ones, made the time to change em, pulled the drum off and realized they just don't have much material on them to begin with. But I had new shoes and the time to do it. btw they quoted me almost 300bux to service rear brakes, so check em yourself they only have maybe 1/8"-3/16" of material |
