  1. Hi guys

    I've read some posts here on cabin filters, but there appears to be nothing definitive on the Avalon (that I could find). Are there air con Cabin filters in the 2002 Avalon behind the glovebox as per U.S. releases

    I had a go at removing some screws and a bolt, but it didn't allow the glovebox to drop. I'm happy to be a little more adventurous with the investigation if I know there are filters there.

    Unfortunately this car has a dreadful cigarette smell from the previous owner and I'm looking for anything which might lessen the odour.

    I'd be grateful for any feedback.

    Cheers

    Many thanks for your reply - I knew it wouldn't be simple, but at my age you live in hope.

    Thanks again

    I'm not 100% familiar with the Avalon, but as far as I'm aware, if you have a single button remote, you won't be able to get a 2 button remote to work without changing the remote central locking classification ECU.

    As well, you would need to add in an aftermarket boot release solenoid if you wanted that extra functionality.

    For the ease of it all, you'd be better off buying an aftermarket alarm which can not only give you a lock an unlock button, but a boot release button as well.

  3. Hi all

    My first post.

    This is my first Toyota and I hope to make it special. First week after purchase and I'm wondering if you can get and program a 2 button entry fob.

    I've always had late model cars, but circumstances have changed and I've found this great Toyota Avalon that I want to get back to new condition and improve mechanically.

    First stop is the entry fob which is annoying because you never know whether you've locked or unlocked the car unless you're looking at the indicators when you use the fob.

    Is there anything available in 2 buttons that works - can you set up the boot as well ?

    I've bought a second fob and followed programming instruction from thjs great site. Unfortunately the "turn the key 3 time and then push the new fob" changes the code and the original fob then doesn't work.

    I'm looking forward to doing some performance things and changing the body with kit parts if this is possible. I look forward to learning from you all through this forum.

    Cheers (and thanks)

    John
