Q&A

I don't have the answer, just unfortunately am having the same problems. Very frustrating to say the least. Hope someone has an answer?

I HAVE HAD THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT PROBLEM AS WELL. HAVE HAD THREE SENSORS REPLACED TOTALING OVER $500.00 IN REPAIR COSTS. AND STILL AGAIN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. I WILL NOT SPEND ANY MORE MONEY IN REPAIRS. I BELIEVE THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT SHOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF BY TOYOTA AS THERE APPARENTLY IS A PROBLEM THAT THE CONSUMER SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR. ANY HOPES OF TOYOTA OWNING UP TO FIXING THIS CONTINUAL PROBLEM?

I had work done on the 2000 Avalon at the dealership. They replaced the canister. 2 weeks later, the check enging light came back on. Auto Zone won't check the codes and turn the light off any more so I went online and purchased an OBDII tool. I now turn the light off at time of inspection, run the car for 100 miles, and it passes inspection. When the light comes on again, I turn it off.

I've had this same problem as well. It's been like that for years. I've also spent wayyyy too much money trying to find the issue. Sensors $$, labor$$$ testing$$$. I'm now out of luck as I live in CT and they won’t pass it. I'm going to do the same thing try and reset it and then test again. Hopefully it will pass this time. But if anyone knows what the issue is please post up. I've also heard that something to do with the timing belt could also cause this. Not sure but it sucks!!! Nice car but no one seems to be able to fix it.
