Where could I get a copy of the TSB? I would like to find out if there are more A/C problems and how one gets Corporate to pick up the entire bill.
Thanks

Check and see what the hot idle speed should be, it seems everyone's problem is in 'a foot off the gas, coasting or braked situation'
Local repair shop $69.00 CDN taxes in
Let me know what you find!
Take care,
Don
Expect the passanger handle to break as well. My drivers side broke under warranty. At 43k the passanger handle broke. Just made a copy of these posts to hopefully get some help from dealership. Toyota needs to look into these handles. Definitely a safety concern.
I have '02 SR5 and I have never been able to set the alarm system so that it gives an audible indication when the alarm system sets. The owners manual explains a process to set it to on, but it has never worked and the dealer couldn't figure it out either.
Anyone have help??
TACOMA TRUCK AND SEQUOIA SUV OWNERS MAY WANT TO TAKE NOTE!
Today May 18th. Toyota issued a NHTSA Campaign no; 05V225000 concerning a suspected suspension problem with the lower ball joint, on some Tacoma Trucks, and Sequoia SUV's from 2001 - 2005 model years. I own a 2003 Sequoia SR5.
The dealers will be replacing the lower ball joints on identified affected vehicles.
Toyota will be notifiying owners of vehicles suspected of been affected by this starting on July 15, 2005. If you feel work is necessary sooner, you can call Toyota at 1.800.331.4331, and/or your Toyota Dealer and explain the symptoms.
NHTSA Has A Safety Hotline to call; 1.888.327.4136 Hope this helps, Rob
The good news is that this is covered by warranty - (36 mos or 36k) , , the bad news (for me) is that mine is well over that.
But I will take the TSb to the dealer and show him what to do. When I first had it in there, he didn't know and wanted to take the car for "a while" so he could "take it apart and try to see what might be causing it and maybe put some felt up there or something"!
It is a 3-year old car! This is a repair I should not have to pay for. I am also struggling for advice on how to get Toyota to take responsibility.
Any advice?

Any help would be appreciated.

It's the one I use.
Do you have any suggestions on best course of action to try and get Toyota to help with the cost of the compressor replacement?
Thanks
The dealer told me that they need to replace the Master Pressure Switch(Sensor) and parts and labors will be more than $1100.
is there anyone out there could help me out with this problem?
Thank you very much!
OK-
You have to pop the inside plastic panel off of the back door and remove the trim pieces. Unplug the electrical connections that are on the middle of the door panel. Then you remove the left access plate (facing the rear from the inside). Next you have to use a star pattern screwdriver to remove the 3 screws. This is tricky because you have to reach in to the panel and there is not much room to maneuver. The only way I could figure out how to do this is to use a small socket and star screwdriver bit. Put the bit in the socket wrench and feel for the screws. It helps to look at the new motor to get an idea of where they are positioned. Also, be sure to save the screws because the new motor does not come with them. The receiver holes in the new motor are self threading so you don't have to worry about nuts (which is nice considering the difficult angle at which you are working).
Replace the wires and panels and you should be in business.
We just got a new 05 4x4 limited about a month ago. It has about 1200 miles on it and my wife informed me last night that on the way home form work, it did the same thisng you described in your posting. Have you had any resolution or discovered what the problem was?
Please let me know
Thanks
EZ_Sequoia :confuse:
I have a 2003 Sequoia with 26K miles. Every once in a while (ever 2 weeks or so) the brake light will turn on when I am driving. I don't notice a decrease in braking ability, and after turning ignition off and on again makes the light go away. Has anyone seen something like this? I was going to take it to Toyota, but it's too intermittent...
Thanks...

Hope this helps.

My question is; has anyone changed over to the Platinum Plugs?
Any engine danger/damage by doing this? P.I.A. changing them every 30k miles.
Curious if anyone else feels this way, (expensive) and changed to the Platinum.
I can put new pads on all four wheels of any of my vehicles in under an hour and that involves jacking each wheel up individually.
That means for the shop there is simply not enough labor (INCOME $$) to do just pads so they always make an effort to sell you on the EXTRAS.
You can also use the worn pads, one at a time, in the same way.
