[Toyota shop manuals for download???]

We have a fairly new member to our board who puts a link on his posts for manual pages. He'll probably respond to your posts.

What do you think of techinfo.toyota.com?

If you are looking for parts at a local dealer some offer club discounts.

I live in the San Francisco Bay area and Toyota 101 in Redwood City

offers a 15% discount.

[CD Changer Trouble]

Sometimes my CD changer, model 16824, will not ejct a disk. Because it happens infrequently, but enough to be annoying, I have not been able to recreate the situation. Inside (the car)temperature does not seem to be an issue. The upper left corner of the unit does seem warmer to the touch than the rest of the unit. When problem happens, I will push eject and nothing happens. I may drive for awhile and, mysteriously, the cd will eject on its own.

The local Toyota service dept. tried to recreate the situation, but could not (of course). One service dept. employee "seemed" to indicate that this is not an uncommon problem. The final word was they could not find a problem, and they could not take my word for it, and a new one costs $600. Also my warranty is running out.

Has anyone had, or know of this problem?

Thanks.

I am a new member. I had a similar problem on my CD changer. I removed the unit and took it to

http://www.sotelectronics.com/ in Concord, CA, an authorized Delphi audio service center. They

repaired it for about $200 in 2004. I have had no problems since.
