I just bought 4 new tires, because the original where getting old and cracking.
I have had this RAV4, for several months. It was in the family since new. So,
besides an oil change, cabin & air filters what does it need. One garage told me
I needed a wheel alignment, but the old tire are evenly worn. So, I didn't do
that. A dealer wanted me to spend $185 on fuel injection cleaning. I don't
believe Toyota says that is necessary. It runs very smooth.
The things I wonder about is the trans & radiator fluid. The stuff gets bad with
time. Perhaps the thermostat should be replaced as well. I think it has self adjusting valves, but with no owner manual I could be wrong.
Any suggestions are welcome. With no autos costing $25K or more out the door. This puppy has to last me a while. Otherwise I will have to use the bus.
I did that for a while and hated it.
