Differential failing: replaced with a used 60,000 mile transmission. Both shocks replaced. Years ago, one shock began slightly leaking. Still leaking, so I decided to replace them - good time to do it with the tranny replacement. Both engine mounts replaced. Another shop noticed there is a very loud vibration when driving in reverse so this was the suggestion. But it didn't get rid of the problem... but I think the other shop just slams on the gas, who does that??

Rattling noise since 10000km driven, became only slightly louder over this time. Installed timing chain repair kit, rattling became a bit quieter, rest of it coming perhaps from the sprocket of the first camshaft I did not replace yet is hard to find as a spare part. 
Jan 2018 I had a long way of investigation (I fix my cars on my own) until I tracked the engine noise down to the camshaft adjusting (VVT) sprocket, which failed, resulting in a power loss. I changed the adjuster (200€) and it was done. I also experienced notable oil consumption. I changed the valve shaft sealings which got stiff and worn out.

In 2016 April the front brakes were completely replaced (normal wear). The braking was fine for a while than slowly I noticed that the brakes started to get weaker. In 2017, December 6th, I had my yearly appointment for a tuneup. During the process the technician advised me that my front brakes needed to be changed. I stated that I will not cover the cost since the original brakes lasted more than 50,000km and the ones from 2016 only lasted 8000km. After revising the type of rotors and pads, the deale admitted to have installed lower quality products in2016 and that the cost of the new OEM rotors and pads will be covered by them. Now I have awesome braking power, thank you Toyota to stand by me!

I wasn't able to set them myself but the shop did. I had one part. The shop sent me to another shop to make keys not knowing that the pieces did not have the ability for ignition. The auto unlock was not fixed. The parts that the keys fits on was. Trouble getting the power locks to work on both doors and the hatch. Shop said there's probably a short in the system, would be expensive to track down and fix. Unclear if due to the aftermarket alarm system.

I had to replace the the plastic or glass housing of my headlight on the passenger side. Also the bulb. It (housing) was too loose. I believe the bulbs were not being held as secure as they could have been and were getting a bit wet. Also the glass or plastic was very dirty. The light was dim. It is brighter now. The dimness was not why we changed the housing. Bulbs too often burnt out from rain, was I think the reason.
