I’m in Cincinnati, we have all climates here, I put them on my Avalon. I noticed a few things, gas mileage dropped 4 mpg, they plowed thru rain puddles with no hydroplaning, no problem with snow, wear is good. No slipping other than pulling away from wet stop lines painted on the roadway. Love them.
I refused to install anything but a koyorad
You can get a koyo radiator for like $160 bucks. I have an Avalon that looks identical under the hood. If it takes you more than 1 hours start to finish something went wrong.
Labor cost for that is sounding correct. Im a mechanic and own a 00 avalon. Ive been putting off doing valve cover gaskets for a while because its gonna be so tedious.
Go to Summit Racing order EBC new rotor and pad kit and thank me later.
I don't trust most shops to do the right thing with brake work. I have run the EBC stuff on Avalon and GS350 as well as many motorcycles.... Great product get street oriented pads for long life.
Pilkington glass is my go to for any older Toyota as they were the oem supplier for most cars. They\u2019ll also accept glass back as defective if it doesn\u2019t calibrate.
I have a resonator delete and Magnaflow mufflers. The drone is there at highway speeds, but not intolerable IMO. The acceleration sounds great.
those are decent prices tbh. I wish I paid that much for my alternator, I have a 2004 toyota avalon and my alt replacement was $500 flat
Last thing on my agenda is the spark plugs. Got it with 131K and I’m pretty sure the previous owner literally sold it to avoid doing them. I know I should have done them yesterday, but god it looks like a bitch, even with Car Care Nut’s guide. I’m planning on doing the job with the new plenum gaskets, and ignition coils while I’m back there.
This is true, we had a few avalons here with Bridgestone Turanza's with something called "radial pull" and its a tire defect that causes car to pull to one side or another because there is a defect with the tire construction.
