Why would you want to disable the seatbelt reminder buzzer? It's a great feature. All cars should have it.

Ewan ko lang kung may actual na bumili ng Taiwan chrome dito sa Tsikot. We generally hate those things.

Kung sa bahay lang, just buckle the belt without you in the seat. That's what I do with the Volvo when I bring it out on the driveway to wash it.

But for short drives (e.g. going to church, grocery, etc.) better buckle up. Statistics have proven that accidents usually happen very close to home when most driver's 'guards' are down.

hi guys - i came across tsikot.com while browsing the web for comments on toyota shaw and rav 4s and decided to register... i just got a 4 year old rav 4J and its in the casa AGAIN for repairs. Wala lang, naiiyak lang kasi ako sa bagong gastos ( 52 taw ) dahil kelangan palitan ang radiator ( my SA said the radiator is from an older model with no temp switch - thanks to the dishonest guy we got it from )... ok ba sa shaw magpagawa ? shock lang kasi ako dahil each time nya ako tawagan for a follow up panibagong gastos e...

Radiator replacement can be done by almost any mechanic basta tama ang piyesa. You can even use EVERCOOL replacement radiators (may thread ang EVERCOOL dito).

Alam mo naman ang Casa, they do not know how to repair vehicles, they only know how to replace [expensive] parts.

52 thou na radiator? Ano yan ginto? Mas mahal pa sa radiator ng BMW at Mercedes combined iyan ha!

BAka naman walang problema ang sasakyan mo, yung dealer mo ang sira.

Yikes ganon ba ? Nakatoka kasi sa kin ang rav 4 and I wanted to be sure I get the rights parts specially sa radiator. Pagkatapos nito sa labas na ko magpapagawa...BTW ok ang mekaniko sa shell katipunan ( hanga pati ang taga toyota sa ginawa nyang adjustment sa clutch ko ) Nagoyo kaya ako ?

Hmmm...di ko alam. Ang mga usual na maririnig mong shops dito sa Tsikot pagdating sa mechanical works ay:
*Speedyfix (Tsikoteer din siya)
*Class A Motorcraft Banawe

mga 38 taw lang pala ang radiator... teka sumasakit na naman ang ulo ko

Mahal pa din yun. Punta ka workshop, use the search function. Keyword EVERCOOL or RADIATOR.
