Have just experienced transmission problems with my 2003 rav4 auto and was wondering if anyone else has had similar problems. It is still at the repairers but they said it is a fault in the computer system that is sending incorrect signals to the transmission and damaging the transmission. Apparently it is beginning to happen quite a lot with some models of Toyota and that Toyota are agreeing to pay a partial amount of the cost dependent on the service history etc of the car. Despite being out of warranty Toyota have agreed to pay for the parts but not the labour which means that i will still be paying around $3000 on a $7000 bill. Am talking to Consumer Affairs at the moment. Is anyone else experiencing similar problems?
