Any RAV4 owners on the forum?

Any known issues?

Anyone running super? My 07 manual says premium. Cars runs well with premium but my gas bill is high.

Issues? None so far.

Would eventually take it's toll on your operating costs.
The rule of thumb with these units (azfe set-up) is don't stray too far from specs.

Ever used super in ur RAV?

Nope!
My position remains there are vehicles that by design work well on what we call super and those that are not and I purchase with this in mind.
I just cannot the financial risk associated with testing faith.
The rav4 even used cannot be considered a low cost unit and requires a certain level of operational care to achieve required pay -back.
Failure to conform could come with consequences.

Hi people, need help on a problem, had a clockspring changed on Rav4 waring for it came off, suddenly "check 4x4 system" warning came up. 4x4 operates fine, scan on vehicle was unable to pick up any fault. Anyone experienced this?
