Re: Wind Whistle? [buxtons]

I too have a 2008 Highlander and it too is making a wind whistle noise out of the passenger side. It is at the dealer now, and they are trying to figure out what is causing it. Did you get yours fix? If so, what was the cure?

I have the same noise in my '08. Once warm it is fine but until then Diesel city. Also it seems to make a lot of noise at idle in drive. This engine does not have Direct injection. You would know the difference. My IS350 has that and you can tell the difference between diesel sound and valve click. I plan on having them look into this as it now makes a lot of vibration in idle that never was there before. So maybe there is an issue..I am sure they will find nothing as usual.

I have a similar issue with my '08 Whistle noise above 45mph..but coming from passenger side windshield. I had them reseal it once already but it still has the issue. I may have them just replace the windshield or look into something from the exterior causing it. I had an '05 Odyssey that made a whistle that was attributed the the cowling right below the windshield. They replaced that and all was better. So we will see what happens this time around.
Re: Tires and pressure [davebehrens]

being a mechanic i have to disagree with you 100%. running full psi in your tires is not a good idea. for a couple of reasons i believe this.with 44 psi your going to run on only the middle of the tire and wear it down to the steel in no time flat. 44 is a rediculous pressure to run on a passenger car. 32 is the standard. also if your worried about the size of your footprin and heat the spreading weight out of the entire tire would yield less heat per square inch. if you have a smaller footprint your cramming all that friction into a smaller area. same weight diffrent surface area. higher temps. hence the tires wear faster. the 44 psi is for maximum weight loads. and lets face it that a scion should not have a ton of weight in it nor would it fit. running at this psi is for intended for extreme weights for short, and i stress SHORT periods of time. passenger cars should not be run at high psi. i assure you the tires will wear faster and rediculously irregularly if inflated to maximum psi.

i forgot to mention in my last postmsomething important. unless you drive your scion in extreme conditions on a regular basis or you are abnormally rough on your vehicle there is not much of a need to follow all your guidelines pointed out in your manual. as a tech i know that the dealrship is just trying to get money for nothing out of you. rarely do i find something wrong with a car that has less then 50k on it. as long as you regularly rotate your tires and get your oil changed every 3-5k then there should be no problems with your scion. also id like to mention that i rotate my tires with every oil change. i change my oil every 5k and i also run 5w30 fully synthetic oil.

being a mechanic and owning my tc i will take it upon myself to tell you basically how your warranty will work. you do not have to have your car serviced at a dealership. you can do your own service and your warranty will still cover everything besides stupidity. any thing that is a mechanical defect will be covered by your warranty. if you put brake fliud in your crankcase this will not be warrantied. remeber if you arent sure dont do it. let a professsional do it, because nine times out of ten it will be wrong if your just guessing. also all recalls will be covered at your scion dealer. again you dont need to be a regular customer. as long as it says scion and you have your recall paper work its covered free of charge.
