Keep in mind that the plastic part on the hood scoop fades quickly. So consider this an added cost over time for repaint.

It only works for me when another window or sunroof is open. Otherwise the vacuum created in the back brings in the exhaust fumes even with my tailpipe on the side.

Thanks for the update. Any idea what it could have been. Maybe some dirt in a sensor. I just don't see mine resolving itself without some intervention. I checked all the fuses, disconnected the battery and took apart the dash and check the connector but the problem remains. Any Idea where...

I know this is an older thread but I'm having the same problem. Every other time a take out the runner the speedo doesn't work. The ODO and tack both work. Were is the IIRC located so I can check it out? Was the problem ever solved by the OP?

My brake pads were not worn down when this occurred. After replacing the rotors the problem has not come back in 12,000 miles.

I consistently change my air filter every third oil changes and find it interesting that a filter upstream can not be changed out when it becomes dirty. Makes me think that I'm wasting my money changing the air filter as the carbon filter gets more an more clogged up. As the cars with these...

I've had this before. Dealer told me its warped brake rotors that sets off the electronic traction system.

Considered the new Venza?
