    I'd like to attend...
    Anyone ever change the belts before? Also coolant, hoses and probably clean throttle body.

    We should. It all depends on who all has things to do. Cleaning the TB is easy, and wont take long. Bring a couple cans of Electronic Contact Cleaner.



    Also, for those that want to change fluids, bring a container to carry the old fluid in, so it can be taken to a recycling location.
    People are very welcome to use my tools, but I ask that only one person use tham at a time, and under my supervision. I have lost tools in the past, and they are expensive to replace. If you want to bring your own tools, thats fine, but make sure they stay near your own vehicle. We dont want anyone mistaking them for one anothers. :)

    Does anyone have a trusted sight for buyng parts. Dealer wants $28 for upper/$28 lower radiator hose, $50 for serpentine belt and $49 for the T-stat. A bit steep don't you think? Thanks.

    Like Eric said. I work at a vw dealer with multiple sister stores giving me 10% over cost. Toyota is right across the street from me too, and I have no problem forwarding my discount to other TW members and friends. Feel free to PM your VIN and a list of parts you need. I'll check the prices and see what I can do.

    Word to the wise as well Toyotaparts.com is sometimes cheaper than what I/and the dealer itself can get them for.

    Explore all options of course.

    Once I do them one time though, I would be happy to help. Just need a little guidance the first time then I'm golden.

    Any tools I can bring? Compressor? Jack stands?

    I have to take off my IFS skid to do what I need to do. I prefer to put it up on stands and then use the floor jack to hold the weight of the skid. That bitch is heavy to hold when trying to also bolt it on.
