The 2006 Toyota Avalon remains unchanged from 2005, when it was redesigned with a larger frame and a more sleek and stylish exterior. The 2006 Toyota Avalon is offered in four trims: the XL, the Touring, the XLS and the Limited. As expected with a high-end vehicle, all 2006 Toyota Avalon models come standard with state-of-the-art safety features including seat-mounted side-impact airbags, side curtain airbags and a driver's side kneebag. The Touring is the sportiest version, featuring suspension tuning, alloy wheels and a rear lip spoiler. The Limited includes all the gadgets associated with luxury brand vehicles, including a six-CD, 12-speaker sound system, separate driver and passenger-side temperature controls and the Smart Key system, which allows the driver to unlock the door and start the ignition while the electronic key remains in a pocket or handbag. The 2006 Toyota Avalon is lauded for its roomy interior (especially the backseat) and smooth, quiet ride. The Avalon also gets surprisingly good gas mileage for a full-size sedan with a 3.5 L V6 engine, about 22/30 mpg using premium fuel. People interested in the Toyota Avalon may also have an interest in a Nissan Maxima, a well-built car with a slightly sportier feel.
Recently had to have cv boots replaced due a tear. Since then the whenever I accelerate the car has a wobble felt through floor and seats. No steering wheel shimmy or wobble. Garage that did repair say that they can see nothing wrong, and must be bad tire. Replaced tires, still has "wobble on acceleration.
I have pre-owned 2006 Avalon Limited with 78k miles on it. It runs smooth. 3 days back (after 200 miles drive) I found both the lights - Check engine and VSC in ON condition. I scanned it using OBD2 (Bluedirect) , below are the error codes it displays: 1 Engine Trouble Codes: • P0456: EVAP System Leak Detected (very small leak) 3 Antilock Brake System Trouble Codes: • C0200: Check report for description. • C1201: Check report for description. • C1223: ABS Control System Malfunction Please suggest what should I do. Thanks
Shakes and struggling to accelerate engine light blinks but I just had a tune up and all plugs and coils and valve gasket replaced and still doing the same thing
Vacaville Toyota gave me a price of $1600 to charge all the coils and spark plugs , they said labor is $150ph . $1600 sounds a bit high don't you think?
