  1. Any locksmith can help you
  2. If you have the key code ( it should be recorded in the owner's manual) you can get a new key made, either from Toyota or any locksmith
  3. Did battery replacement caused any other issues? Did you replace it yourself? I am sort of scared to find my car unusable if I replace the battery myself. I have no issues doing that myself (was doing full car service to my previous Camry before) but this car if fulfilled with electronics and this is the doubt point for me. Yes I replaced it myself (I do all my own maintenance) and it is very straightforward. To protect your electronics always disconnect the negative terminal first and reconnect it last
  4. The symptoms described are exactly what my Aurion did when the battery died, but testing it before buying a replacement wont hurt in case I'm wrong. You will lose any presets in your sound system, but thats all.
  5. Sounds like a battery problem, test that and check the terminals are clean and tight
  6. It's still worth a try. Maybe you aren't hitting it hard enough :P
  7. There's no need to remove the seat. Just remove the trim each side ( this wont disrurb the airbag), then the deck just lifts up. It might take a firm lift, but it is only held by clips. Removing the headrests makes it easier to get the deck out.
  8. I bought an FM transmitter which plugs into my phone, just tune into it on the car stereo. Cost me about $20
  9. I recently bought "deploy safe" sheepskin covers for the front seats, cost about $350.
  10. The rubber strap works well. As do sheepskin seat covers
  11. I had a very similar problem when I first bought my Aurion. It drove me nuts trying to figure out what the beep was - til I realised I'd left my phone in the console and It's battery was low. Duhh
  12. Tagging along?? I hope you'll be able to keep up. :P My speeding ticket collection says not all mature age gents drive slow
  13. Also if cows eat chocolate does that make chocolate milk and if you shake a cow does that make milkshakes? Yes
  14. Never get under a car supported only by a jack. Hence the reference to blocks.
