We have the 2019 highlander Limited AWD, and the MPG thing is skewed. Seems to me my mileage has gotten worse since the recalled fuel pump was replaced! (??) A week or two ago we drove the Interstate (35miles) and mpg dropped? A few days ago I reset the mpg and did some in town driving and it was reading 12.3 mpg. went through a drive thru fast food place an while ordering and picking up the order the mpg's actually reversed to 10.7!! Baffled!

Damn I have a 2019 but have not noticed any warpage and our Highlander sits in the Mojave desert sun so I'm just musing here, perhaps a bad batch of trim? Exposed to detergents, chemicals?

Just noticed at the Mobil station where I have been filling up (regular 87 octane)now says 10% Ethanol.
My manual says fuel is "Gasoline 87 octane. research octane 91 or higher".
Confused a bit here, is gas with Ethanol Ok? Is 87 octane Ok or should it be 91 octane (Premium)?

Agree it is an eyesore in an otherwise clean sharp design.

USB option not showing on my Audio screen, the manual shows the screen with the USB icon. Trying to play music, 3.2 Gen 1 Memory stick.

Have a 2018 Highlander, would like to change 3,000 mile (
synesthetic) oil change maintenance to 5,000 miles. Anyone know if this is possible?
I have the 2019 with V^ and manual states with the 0-20 Mobil 1 oil, 10K, however I don't feel good going that long, talked to my local mechanic he recommended 5K using 0-20 synthetic.

Yes it should do, but your ground clearance at the rear of the vehicle will be diminished a few inches. Be careful to make sure the wheel does not foul the rear of the aperture into which the wheel fits if it is at a tilt when lifting into position it could jolt loose if you hit a bump in the road.

Howdy Aagie,
I have 2019 Highlander and I experience the same thing, annoying yes.
-
Thank you Rom.

I'm not disapointed at all. "Far more"? Far more costs also.
-
Can/will a regular size wheel/tire fit in place of the "donut" spare that comes from the factory?

Just purchased 2019 Highlander, Limited AWD. Ride is comfortable. Better than I expected in a SUV. Only have 250 miles so far. Our seats are a bit on the firm side, but still breaking in so? From what I've read on 2020 its a complete update, a bit longer in wheelbase and projected to ride better? Some say the 2019 series is better because of multi-year improvements and those same voices say the "redesign years" tend to have some problems that are worked out in following years? Happy hunting.
