2009 Toyota Venza 4dr SUV
268-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
| 86000 mi US $50 |
Problem with vibration/noise from rear end. Issue was due to problem with AWD system. Quote from the dealer was ~$2700 but was covered under drivetrain warranty. |
| 126000 mi US $400 |
Vehicle had been developing a shudder at certain speeds/loads over several thousand miles slowly getting worse. Dealer could not reproduce the issue. After a few thousand more miles, I took it to our local repair shop. After doing a tuneup (probably necessary but did not resolve the issue), it turns out the transmission fluid had deteriorated. Fluid was supposed to be lifetime but the mechanic flushed out the fluid and refilled with new fluid. This fixed the issue 100%. Way better than the $$$ I was expecting due to some transmission component issue. Will be taking it back to him every 60K or so for a change. |
