Toyota  rav4 water pump problem what would cause the water pump on a '07 rav4 V6 with 72000 miles to fail. seen others with same problem & we received recall notice for internal oil hose replacement. is this related to water pump problem? and yes, i've had regular maintenance on vehicle. i've driven toyotas since 1979, including 2 rav4's, and most with 175 - 200k before selling/trading and never had a water pump replaced in any of them. does the '07 rav4 V6 have a problem? Solution: The oil line replacement is part of the 90K recall, and has nothing to do with the water pump. They've found that a number of the oil line hoses were failing very prematurely, and making a HUGE oily mess. It is a piece of hose with about a 45 degree bend that is less than 6 inches long.   The water pump unfortunately is not considered powertrain. The engine, transmission, etc are your drive train. The waterpump is considered an accessory, much like a power stee...

I assume no responsibility for any damage to your vehicle or personal injury as a result of following this guide. Any comments to improve the procedure will be gratefully received. Time Required It took me 2 hours from start to finish, including the time to take photos and make notes. If I had to do it again, I think I could cut this down to 1 hour or less. Tools Required: Simple hand tools and a multimeter. Let’s Get Started! 1. Remove clear plastic cover from the trunk light. It is held in place by four snaps. It is a bit tough to pull off. If necessary, use a thin flat screw driver to gently pry it off. Note that the cover is not symmetrical. The snaps on one side are spaced further apart than the other side.

2007 Toyota Yaris Manual?

Offside door mirror has continuous ratcheting action, after being knocked.

Problem with 2007 Toyota Yaris The offside door mirror has been knocked and now the electrics are playing up, so every time we switch the ignition on the complete mirror unit is powered and just performs a continuous ratcheting action. This can only be solved by holding the unit firm for a short period. Toyota say the only repair option is a new unit at $700! The glass adjusting motor still works as does the folding action. Sounds like the main motor mount pin is snapped. Unfortunately they are right, you will need to replace the mirror unit complete. That said, I wouldn't be paying $700. Ring around wreckers and get a 2nd hand one. You'll likely find one in the right color for your vehicle..
