Toyota parts reviews

When I had mine done a year ago, independent shops were quoting $950-$1,100 while a Toyota dealer quoted $1,200.

Yokohama avid on my xse non-premium as well. We just got our first snow here in Maryland, and it performed exceptionally imo.

The MZ V6 won't die, unless you overheat it or timing belt failure. It is an interference engine, do the timing belt! An aisin kit is the only way to go, about $150

Michelin premieres perform great in the snow, about as good as winter tires (reviews on tirerack) Turned my prius into a beast in the snow (for a prius).

I use Mobile 1 0w-20 and the top of the line Fram oil filter on my 2013 Highlander.

we've been using Dunlop for our vios.

P.S. this same Toyota dealership told me I needed a new air filter upon which I told him, “It’s a K&N...” he said oh, and walked back into the garage.

They are pretty good for the price, especially on a normal-ish car like a Camry.

I've got nt01's on my mr2 and they're ok at lower speeds in rain.

So, my buddy has a Mk2 Supra. He has so many cars, this one lives at my house. When he first bought the car 4 years ago, it had been sitting for a while, and the tires were shot, so he had tires-easy send a set of Nexen N3000's in close to the original size to North Carolina, had them installed so that he could drive back to Pittsburgh. So, we took the car to Hershey at the beginning of last year, and the tires have not covered that many miles since purchase, so three years of mild summer driving. They started to vibrate BAD after we started back. At first, we could not figure out what in the hell was wrong, so we stopped, and the tire had a HUGE bulge in the middle of the tread. Once again, in the middle of the tread. So, we had to throw on the 30 year old spare, a Dunlop SP3000 that looked comically old. So we started off again, and less than 10 miles later, it started to vibrate terribly again. Thinking that the spare was dying, we were stuck in a single lane cattle pen on the PA Turnpike, and were limping it at 35 until we could get to an emergency pull off. We were just about to pull it over after it crossed back over to the end of the construction zone, and BLAM! We pulled over to find the OTHER N3000 on the rear axle had **** the bed, actually blowing out the center of the tread. It looked like the belts had all just blown out of the hole. We had to wait 6 hours for a tow truck for a 4 hour tow home. It sucked. He found a couple of used tires at a place down the street from him, some old Grand Am brand tires to tide him over until he could replace all of them with a decent tire. So, after a couple of shows and sitting at my house again, I took it to Youngstown to get snow tires for my wife's new Fiesta, about an hour away, and........WHOOMP WHOOMP WHOOMP....the third out of four started to bulge in the middle. So on went the old Dunlop spare, which got me home. I wouldn't buy Nexens again if you paid me, and I had N5000's on my truck for a couple of years, kinda liked them. BUT NEVER AGAIN.
