Hi all, A long while ago I broke off 1 of the hood molding's plastic fasteners while closing the hood, as probably many have done accidentally. This plastic really seems to get brittle. Even in junkyard cars the nuts+bolts for the molding are rusted too stiff to loosen without breaking the...

Hi all first post here. Just recently purchased a 2003 Sequoia 8 seater. The single seat in the second row passenger side is not aligning with the hinge. I took the base off and it looks like the bars in the photo below are broken. I have tried zipties and wire to pull the base bar but it's...

Long story short: Someone tried to break into my highlander with a screw driver and ended up snapping the handle. Because of that, I need to enter my vehicle through the passenger side until I can get this fixed. The car is used by my mom as well and since she's older, it's very difficult for...

Have a 2015 Sienna with leather. Has adjustable front armrests. The one on drivers chair has broken off pin so that it will no longer 'catch' in any position and rather.... just fall straight down now. Has anyone on here ever experienced this... and found a fix? I called a couple Toyota...

Hi! I don't have a power liftgate on my 09 Venza. It does have a locking mechanism once the door is basically closed, but you have to manually lift and close. I came out to a dead battery yesterday and once I charged it back up, I found the latch is engaged but apparently the locking mechanism...

Strange, on my 08 Avalon, I have 3 small hose ends by the airbox and battery that are open (broken or slipped off?). I can’t find the 4th and it does NOT look to me like any 2 of the 3 are meant to be connected to each other. I have been unable to find a picture showing the correct routing of...

Modern vehicles have two main types of glass on the body, the front, laminated windshield, and the side tempered glass. These are both considered "safety" glass, and work in different ways to protect occupants from getting hurt when they break. The front windshield is made of laminated glass...

Hi all. I'm new here, and didn't see anything like this already posted. I have a '78 toyota pickup with a 20R engine. I have owned the truck for close to 6 months. The problem: The gas gauge reads accurate until 1/2 full, then it stops moving. Its been like this for over a month, 2 weeks ago...

Hello, Having an issue with my 93' Previa. High Beam switch will not engage when locked forwards, however, the high beams will turn on if I flick the switch backwards. Checked the fuse box for anything blown out and the lamps themselves, which all seem in good working condition. This leads me...

I have a 1995 corolla wagon and the rear seat latch (The thing that locks that folding seat into place) is broken, It refuses to lock the seat into place. The seat falls over occasionally when I brake, and I can fold the seat without using the latch release because it doesn't work. Does anybody...

I am at my absolute wit's end with my 2008 Corolla. I can't get the trunk to open no matter what I try. It isn't an issue with the valet key/setting and the lever next to the driver's seat will not open it. I don't have a trunk button on my key remote either. I successfully pried open the back...

I have this problem with my Camry 4th gen that doesn't seem to go away. It all started a while back, where at stop lights the idle would sporatically jump between nearly 0 and 1,000RPM. The engine sounds like it's choking and would shut off, sometimes it actually would. When you would start it...

Hi Just became the owner of a 96 camry wagon. As a new and entusiastic owner I want to fix the minor problems that exist. The first problem is a broken tailgate handle. Can not find any dealer that sell these handels, or any used parts. Any idea where I can find these? Tried to search on...

A few years ago, I managed to break one of the mounting pins when removing the passenger side rear tail light housing on my 96 LE sedan. The area around the pin in the housing broke out and the pin remained in the white plastic socket piece attached to the body work. The three strikes: my...

Ok, so I missed work the other day because of my main vehicle, so I was using my 93 previa le to drive around town to get parts. In route back to my house, I gave it a little gas and lost all forward movement and had no gears. As I coasted to the side of the road, the previa eventually died...
