HELL YES! dayam, i thought i was the only one!?! i found out what it was: if the pass. seat is moved up (using the side handle to shove yer passengers to the back) and then put back, you'll hear a click. but there's some crap underneath that makes that noise. remedy: simply move your seat a notch up. don't slide it all the way back, or you'll get that lovely noise while you're driving.

as for the wrong brake padImage

I forogot the old thread and am too tired to go look for it but i do remember the thread, what did they tell you originally or had you not taken it in yet?

Yah, I'd be upset too. Let me know what they say. If the blow you off, send a certified letter with receipt notification to the dealer or Toyota.

ahh, just found the thread! It's still on the first screen...

Man, I'd be raising some @#$# hell when I get to the service manager especially since they refused you service last time and compromised your safety.

Ask for a letter of apology, that way in the future if they ever refuse warranty work you can show them that their incompetence may have caused the fault and not yours :)
