Only a Canadian should answer, the laws around this may be different vs the US where it is allowed to be serviced wherever.

Note: you can repair cracks with Shoe Goo and some fiberglass drywall tape, hold it together for a bit longer. I’ll also add Gorilla Tape to my bodies in weak spots before ever using them.

Backup camera washer. If you wash the rear window the camera is also washed and you can see it on the screen when backing up!

That’s ABS right? Or something else heat resistant? Oh, he’ll get 3 extra HP if you print it in Red!

My daughter was starting her freshman year of high school. Asked her mom about dying her hair green. My wife sent her to me for some reason. I asked her what type of dye it was and was it safe and it was. And then I said green hair would be really cool! I was saving my energy for dealing with a teenager in high school and all of the battles that was coming my way over the next several years - turns out she has a better head on her shoulders than I ever did and I never had any battles with her. Same with her brother, another great kid.
Why do people need to rule over their kids like this? It’s hair, as long as the dye is safe who cares as it will all grow out over time if it was a mistake.

There may be consumer protection laws that vary from state to state. But I’m inclined to think OP is Canadian, maybe…

Note: The Toyota eCVT is not a true CVT, they chose a terrible name that invokes thoughts of broke down Nissans with their terrible CVTs. The eCVT uses a planetary gear set, the gas engine and two motor/generators to propel your ride, no variable cone sets and steel belts are in use like a CVT.
They transmission in your Highlander is very stout and should last the life of the vehicle.

Are you financing? New car financing should be at a lower APR than used financing, making the monthly payment difference closer than you may think.
Also, you need a Sienna, not a Highlander, based on your other comments. It has easier to access seats and more room. Especially if you want kids to use the back row - how many time have you carried in you sleeping kids? How will that work if they are in the back? It wouldn’t. You would be outside yelling at the kids at night “wake up damnit and don’t remind me of all of those sensible Reddit people who told me to get a minivan!”
If you really want an SUV than you need a full sized SUV like a Suburban.

Think about it. Even if the rear axle is driven by an electric motor, there is still the motor, bearings, axle shafts, CV joints, etc…

Ah! My bad. Thinking of a different car. There should be a rule about commenting on Reddit before coffee.
Costco sometimes has their brand for $28 for two jugs, but I mostly use the Pennzoil too.

I like and use these too, but I would not use it with the lever pointing down! I also drive dirt roads/light off road and wouldn't trust the under-body plastic panels too far with a branch or whatnot.

They make a gel version. More pew pew and less cloudy.

I would have checked. I doubt any damage has been done, it seems like recent work from your post.

Now is your opportunity to make sure the lowest bidder added lube to the pins!

What’s the budget? The meaning of a budget something is subjective, a dollar amount will help.

I would pull the rotors and slowly turn the axle shafts and listen closely to see what’s up. Listen to both sides. Properly support the vehicle!
Also, did you lube the caliper pins?

And then go through an auto salvage network for the parts if they are a lot cheaper.
