Anywhere in Los Angeles! LOL

Never calculated the cost come to think of it.

Do most of my maintenance myself for the minor stuff like fluid and filter changes. For more difficult jobs, I head to my neighborhood mechanic, a lot cheaper and does a better job than any $tealership.

There should be a sticker somewhere in the engine compartment that says what kind of refrigerant is used.

Your system must be able to take 134a, those refrigerants aren't interchangeable.

Stick with the manual.

Colder air causes air to become more dense and makes it seem to the sensors that the tire has lost air. Just air them back up to what's stated on the driver's side door jam, usually 32 PSI or so, and the light should turn off.

It looks like it can be pushed right back in, have you tried that yet?

It's not officially a "new" recall per se, but they just "expanded" the first one to cover more vehicles.

Hopefully he's gotten the part already 4 years after this post was made.

WeatherTech mats are a favorite.

First, make sure the shift lever is all the way into the PARK position. Second, you say the battery and starter are good. How do you know? Did you have them tested? If your battery is older than 4 years old then I would replace it.

So you not understanding how to operate a switch will make you not by a certain product? That's some great reasoning there. Maybe pull out your owner's manual and learn how to actually use the car? Just a thought....

Man, wish I were closer otherwise I'd come by and take a look at it. Best of luck to you and the car though!

Price?

Well, there could be a whole host of other problems then, like bad tie rods, endlinks, out of round tires (have you tried rotating the tires yet?), different size/brand tires, worn shocks etc.

42 PSI sounds on the high side, maybe air them down to 34 or 36 PSI, I think 42 is the max PSI for a tire.

There is no similar vehicle here in the States that compares to the Avensis. The Avensis is built in the UK and is mainly for the European market. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Avensis

What's your current miles/kilometers per gallon/liter?

You're under warranty, I'd take it back to the dealer and let them deal with it.
