Hi guys,

I was driving home tonight and I had my aircond on and it was making this really strange noise. More of ticking sound coming from the air panels. It only happens when I switch on the air but when i turn it off, the sound goes away. Has anyone had this problem b4? If so, what is causing it and how do i fix it?

Thanks in advance folks. :) :) :)

Cheers,

J@Se

Hi everyone, this is my first ever posting. Happy New Year to all !!! The only clicking I hear is a loud one when I turn on/off the a/c, dont know if this is normal with the corollas, cause my wife's daihatsu doesnt make any noise at all when the a/c is turned on/off

The noise has mysteriously disappeared the following day. I have no idea what happened..it just stoped making that noise all of a sudden. I'm going to get toyota to check it out regardless.

Thanks anyway guys.

Is the noise inside and there with the fan on a/c off ? could be leaves in the fan blower wheel. if the the noise goes away with the a/c off it could be the head pressure in a/c system too high and cutting the compressor in and out. could be a number of things but if is just leaves in the blower wheel (from parking under trees) toyota will charge you. if it were any other problem i.e. gas pressure it should be warranty....

If it was a very hot day and the noise was the compressor cutting in and out due to high head pressure, toyota may have over gassed your system, on a cooler day the problem wont show up and toyota won't know what you talking about when you compalin....

dale2176, thanks for the info.. Unfortunately, it's too late. They charged me for getting it looked at as there were some leaves that were jammed up the fan blower wheel.

If only I had jumped on to the forum earlier!!! Oh well, lucky it wasn't an expensive exercise.... :(

      Head Unit with Apple CarPlay

      Did you end up getting a head unit for the Rav4? I'm thinking of purchasing one from eBay for my 2015 Rav4.

      RZN169 Poor fuel economy and low/rough idle at cold start up

      Hi all, First time writter. Long term reader. I have a RZN169r 1999 Toyota Hilux 3rzfe Manual 4WD with 425,000KM. Which we have owned from 130,000KM. Since about the 400,000km mark (it had a new/used 138,000km engine only, installed at 385,000KMs) it has been using fuel and idiling rough. I'm getting 100kms less then usual. We would normally get 450-550kms per tank. Now getting 350km-400kms. Our long term mechanic of 20 years retired a few years ago and I have no one in my local area who knows these engines or who I trust. Any sugestions on who I can take my car to? I also have no faith in my local Toyota Dealer. I'm in Sydney NSW. Thank you in advance.

      Purchasing 2014 Prado GXL - Requesting Inputs

      Hello, Thanks for reading my post. We're in the middle of the process of buying 2014 Prado GXL from a private buyer in Brisbane. It has 107K km on the odometer, we arranged an independent inspection and only noticeable issue came out of the inspection is presence of rust. Inspector said general wear (ageing) and rust to the components consistent with the age and mileage. I've attached some of the images(related to rust) from the inspection, please review and let me know if I should be concerned about any future issues or as the inspector mentioned is the rust presence is expected for a 10-year old Prado. Appreciate your help in advance. Thanks, VM

      3rd Gen (XU50) Kluger new aftermarket radio install

      Hi there sorry for the late response, The reverse guidelines are on the factory camera itself (the guidelines are turned off on the Pioneer unit as it doubled up over the factory camera lines) and if I remember correctly they still retain the angle prediction. Everything else (excluding DAB) works***. But instead of using DAB I've downloaded RadioApp which has all of the DAB stations on it and is accessible by Android Auto (not sure on Apple CarPlay though) so no biggie. I also used an adapter to retain the original GPS antenna, works flawlessly. *** EDIT *** The info on the instrument cluster may or may not show, depending on what interface you end up using. In my case I've lost the audio and navigation info on the centre screen and fuel economy/vehicle customisation screens from the factory head unit but I'm not fussed by it as there are other ways to access them on a Kluger. I think it's all retained if you use iDatalink Maestro and a compatible head unit (it will be marked as such) but besides that and DAB all other functions are still operable.

      Removing low beam bulb 2014 Camry

      Thanks, Mate - i'll give it a go. As you say, $15 is better than replacing a damaged headlight (not to mention the aggravation).
