Ok, two problems.
My center console is getting extremely hot. First noticed it about two weeks ago after a 3 hour, 80+ mph road trip(i figured thats why it was hot). Then, today, my milkshake melted in about 4 minutes. Asked my self how the hell that happened with the A/C on.. put my hand in the cup holder and it was HOT! Pulled out the console assembly, and all the metal was way way hot, and same with the shifter assembly, HOT! All this after about a 5 minute drive.
I wouldn't say that is normal.. would you??
So, I figured i'd give a look underneath to see if i notice any funky problems...lo and behold, a leak:
It's a definite oil leak, but.. why??
Taking it in to Toyota ASAP tomorrow.. Let me know of anything i should be asking. :rocker:
