#2117 of 2123 Re: First time Rav 4 owner 2001 L AWD [jmisner] by cwhelan Feb 29, 2008 (6:52 am)
Replying to: jmisner (Feb 18, 2008 8:06 pm) you might want to check and see if there are "touring tires" for the RAV. My husband just bought these for his Camry and the difference is dramatic- very quiet. A bonus - they are so good in snow that he has not had to go through the hassel of changing to studded snows, as he always had to do before.   Road noise is my only complaint about the RAV Replies to this message: jmisner (Mar 04, 2008 9:00 pm)

Replying to: cwhelan (Feb 29, 2008 6:52 am) Thank you for your reply about the touring tires. Replaced shocks and struts which brought some bounce back into the ride. The ride is bouncy here anyway on San Francisco's tattered streets. Looking at springing for Michelin Primacy MXV4, which we bought last year for our Volvo Wagon. Huge improvement in ride comfort and handling on that car. Rav4 has an intermittent jiggling/rattling sound coming from about where the dash meets the windshield that I can not figure out. Anyone have a similar problem?

#2121 of 2123 broken window bracket by kolling Aug 19, 2008 (1:42 am)
I have a 2004 RAV4 which the drivers side window came out of the regulator. A new regulator was purchased and replaced as the little plastic clip had broken and I could not buy another one without buying the whole regulator.   A week after the regulator was replaced the window bracket became dislodged from the glass window. I have had glued back on with varying glass glues, but it keeps coming off again.   There has to be away to reglue the bracket back onto the window without having to buy a new window from Toyota (as suggested by Toyota), so that it stays on and does not make the window come out of the regulator. These brackets have initially been glued on so there must be a way to do it again.   Has anyone else had this problem and successfully repaired it?

Replying to: kolling (Aug 19, 2008 1:42 am) On my '01 Mustang I was forced, finally, into using a glass drill to drill a hole to more permanently attach the "bracket".   If you could "scar" up the glass surface somehow (Kein Multimaster..??) and then use a good epoxy....??
#2123 of 2123 Brake and Head Light Issues by toyconvert Aug 20, 2009 (7:57 pm)
I have a couple of I am sure unrelated problems. My wife has a 1997 Rav and the drivers side brake light will not work. I have replaced the bulb and it still does not work. The second issue is the drivers side headlight. It works fine on high beam, but when on low beam the light does not work until you get out and whack it. Then it works fine.   This has been a GREAT car ... maybe even as good as my Echo.   Any ideas.   Thanks
