@@giwasrides3663 I'm trying to figure out where the heated seats button is on my 2004 Avalon. I thought they changed 2004 a little, but mine looks like yours as far as I can tell. Have almost 149,000 on mine. Just bought it about 1 month ago for about $5200 tho when I pay it off early, it'll drop most of interest. Put $2000 down and already paid $1700 so I'll have it paid off in May. Did have to put your rod ends on week ago, and it needs tires and front end alignment. The back seat is very roomy & comfy. I take a nap in mine almost everyday at lunch. Finally checked trans fluid today, nice, full & clean. Only had 2 owners before me, one from new till 08, then 2nd from '08 till like Sept 2021 when they traded it in at Lexus dealer. It's still like new inside except for one little 4 inch rip in driver's seat. No cracks in dash at all. Seems everything works but cruise. Only thing I hate is no manual for it. Seems idle air control module, think that's what it's called, is sticking once in awhile. Need to try cleaner but it's only stuck like 3-4 times in month. I loved my 2002 Infiniti, but I love this one more! Drives like a dream but will be better with new tires/alignment! And need to replace our fix sub woofer as it crackles.

Should be tie rod ends and fix or replace sub woofer! Forgot to mention I live in FL and this has been FL car from the beginning. Being it's not the sportiest of cars, do you think it would look crazy to put lights underneath? I always planned to put them on my Infiniti but never got the chance. Also want rain guards that to me make it look a bit sportier. And later, a bit darker tint. Would like to get bigger rims/tires, but guess that's too costly plus those little tires that go on bigger rims I hear ride rough.

You've got an idler pulley or belt tensioner pulley going out. That's what that squealing sound is under the hood. And it's not real wood interior trim - it's plastic.

I found a very nice driving 2003 Avalon XL last year, with leather, alloy wheels, and JBL with only 70K on the clock. It has just short of 100K on the clock now and has been mostly trouble free, except for front calipers, which I suspect got sticky from sitting too long. I suspect is was originally an elderly persons car, as it had a recent timing belt and serpentine belt change, but minor body damage, , and the obligatory crumbling rear subwoofer, which was fixed and the car repainted before I took delivery. After the dealer and I got everything sorted out, it has been flawless. I want to keep it basically unmolested, but after living with the JBL for a year and a half and seeing what you did with the back up camera and head unit, I would kind of like to upgrade that, and change out the cheap Toyo tires on it to something that rides quiet, and has good grip.
