Another Victim to this bullshit. Why hasn't Toyota notified their dealers and trained them into knowing about this problem and easily fixing the issue without taking more time,effort,money and headaches.
I was lucky, Thank god for rav4 world and sites like this i was able to get the ECU replaced but for $1700. I do feel ripped off because I asked the Toyota guy to reset but he couldnt which is odd because my brother had his rav4 same model reset @ another mechanic and it sorted the issue fine for $40 dollars. But apparently replacing the whole unit is better.
Now im not sure if my ECU was replaced with an Updated one or the same one but bottom line is. It is complete bullshit that Toyota are playing dumb and are not aware of this problem which in the end result we as customers have to pay for.
Something needs to be done and people need to be rebated their money for Toyota's lack of interest.
