I'm looking to mount snow tires on steel wheels for the winter to save my alloys from the excessive salt used here. Are the 4.1 and 4.2 wheels interchangeable?? If something is different, what is it....offset, bolt pattern, hub size, brake clearance....??? Hub size can be gotten around with concentric rings if I have the smaller hub on the '05......

That's what I thought!.........but my dealer tells me 2001-2005 only :roll: for my '05....
I wonder if his part numbers are only reflecting a different style of steel wheel for the two gens.........????...and not different specs....

    Having hesitation when accelerating in my 2003 RAV4 when it is cold. I have replaced plugs, coils, and cleaned MAF sensor - and no change. It is worse when it is cold, and once it is warm, it drives fine with no hesitation. I’ve read the ignition harness/wiring maybe the cause (I think this...

  6. Rust

    4.2 General
    Only 63000 miles on our 2004 Rav4 but rust will be the end of it at some point. I recently replaced the gas tank that rotted out and now the fuel filler tube assembly. We really love this car and will hang onto it as long as we can.
