I'm so pissed at the Toyota engineers and here's why:
Lately my mom's been complaining about her A/C not being cold. So i figured how hard could it be right? its an 03' Toyota Sienna Symphony so I know its got R134 in it. So i popped the hood and looked for the Low side line. Found the High side immediately....right in front of my face. But the damn low side took me a sec. I finally found it......WAY in the back near the fire wall underneath the cowl. I tried attempting it by putting a towel over the intake manifold and leaning on it, but it was just too difficult....
So you know what that means!? I had to remove the entire cowl to get access to it, JUST to fill in that R134 which took 5 min. It took me at least an hour to remove the: wipers, cowl, and fresh air intake duct along w/ the rubber trim and those pesky clips that like to break. The was like 20-30 screws involved JUST to reach access to the Low side line. But thank god I finally got done w/ it and now it blows cold.
So F U Toyota engineers, get smarter or something!
oh, here's the High side...which i don't need! damnit.
just for comparison purposes....look how easy it is on our accords....Oh yeah didn't even have to look, that's why I love my Honda
Oh and I did this today, just incase you didn't see it in the three other spots I posted it haha, Header wrap!:
