Thank you so much for this video. I just purchased a 2024 RAV4 and this video is 100% better than trying to read the Toyota manual.

[@brianruperti]

Glad it helped! But please, please check out the manual for some even more valuable safety info!

[@user-du2cj3ke1z]

I've had my 2024 Rav4 Hybrid about two months now....and am still trying to learn about and how to use all the features. Your video was the best and most complete I've seen yet. You've helped me a lot...thank you! By the way....I love the vehicle and have no regrets at all two months in.

[@brianruperti]

Thanks so much!

[@davidmon62]

Excellent tutorial. Everything very clear, precise and well illustrated. I really give you my most expressive thanks for clarifying so many doubts that I had. Your video allows me to easily understand the process without having to waste time searching and trying to understand the Toyota manual.

[@brianruperti]

Glad it was helpful!

[@hamdyabdellatif7764]

[@brianruperti]

Thanks Hamdy I hope you are enjoying your summer!

Thank you so much!!! I have had my Rav 3 months now and have yet to read the manual thank you!!

[@brianruperti]

You're welcome!!

[@djdragongod]

Fantastic breakdown! You did forget the SOS button, but I am nit-picking. I wondered what some of the buttons were on my XLE, and this helped greatly. Thank you.

[@brianruperti]

Glad it helped!

Great tutorial! Much easier than reading the manual as I’m a visual learner!

Will you be doing a full button tutorial for the 2023 Venza? I can’t find one anywhere on KZbin but yours are so informative. Thanks.

Hola Brian. I have a 23 Venza ( I read the manual when I find time ). Rav has same steering wheel stock and safety features so I watched this for a quick tutorial. You showed the auto wipers mean rain sensing.. that explains why my wipers change speed automatically.. 🤭 I didn't know before your video. You are so thorough. Keep 'em coming. 👍🏾🤩

[@brianruperti]

Thanks for watching!

[@Neztnaj41]

Very precise and detailed explanation on how each button of the car works. 😊 I hope that you will have another video on the 2024 Rav4 XLE trim, thanks

[@brianruperti]

Thank you, I will!

Thank you so much for the amazing breakdown, I have one question, the equalizer is blocked for me. Do you know why this could be? Thank you for your time!

[@brianruperti]

Thank you. Possibly because your vehicle is not on. Try that and lmk

[@atvchicZ400]

Thank you for ur time in showing us all the different buttons and features. I currently drive a 09 camry and looking for a new car. Its between the rav4 and another manufacturers suv. This vid is helpful for my research. Thanks!

[@brianruperti]

You’ll be so happy with the RAV4!

[@atvchicZ400]

I also have my eye on the Honda passport .

[@brianruperti]

@atvchicz400 not a fair comparison. You may want to consider 4runner, the real competitor to the passport.

[@atvchicZ400]

I know. I just like both of the different suv's lol

[@brianruperti]

@atvchicz400 Tough choice! Have you driven both?

[@28ashcat]

Thank you. Really in depth information.!

[@brianruperti]

You’re welcome!

[@richardmorse5307]

Just test drove a used 2022 RAV4 LE this week and decided to get an XLE hybrid premium if we can wait that long as no new ones available in stock from dealers. Thanks for your review of this hybrid trim!

[@Obsidion.ZX77]

I love the way you do this tutorial, just keep the good job ❤👌👌👍👍

Thank you!

[@cheryltoth309]

Can we ask questions? You seem to know this vehicle very well. Just got a preowned 2023 RAV4 LE. FWD Only a few hundred miles. on it. Everything seemed good. Then I opened the windows. Specifically, the 2 rear windows. The noise level and air pressure in the cabin increased dramatically. I had to shut them after only a few seconds. My eardrums hurt. It only has this effect when the rear windows are open. Don't notice it when the front windows are both down took it back to the dealer and they said everything was good and it was safe to drive. the technician said he experienced it too. But it was perfectly safe to drive. "It's the nature of this vehicle." This car is air tight and the air has nowhere else to go. In 50 years of driving i have never experienced this loud rattling humming vibration for opening the back windows. I've listened to all sorts of opinions. From It's a lemon To nothing's wrong with it. It's missing a bolt.. maybe a bracket.. something is loose. ..this doesn't happen in the ones with a better sound system it would have more noise cancellation. and the factory assembled the chassis incorrectly. I know next to nothing about cars. How serious is this? What could be the cause? Should I trade it in immediately? Any suggestions for an old lady? is there someone I should talk to about this? Please and thank you

[@brianruperti]

[@benztech2262]

I first experienced this phenomenon in the late 70’s in my mom’s 1965 Mercedes 220S. We used to say it sounds like a helicopter was landing on the roof! I’ve now been an automotive technician since 1981 and have found a few other cars that experience the crazy resonance. On some models it is perfectly normal. As a Mercedes Technician for the last 19 years I only recently found it occurring on a MB model. I can tell it is normal and just and simply annoying sound resonance that affects certain models.

At first glance I thought this was the long awaited review of the GH.

Hi Brian - I couldn't find your "Full Button Review" video on the 2023 RAV4 xle-premium hybrid model that you mentioned (in the beginning sequence) you did in the gas model video. Can you provide a link? Thanks.

Got my Toyota RAV4 hybrid 2023 yesterday . I paid additional for a kill switch (compustar) that they told is adding more protection to prevent theft . Do I use only that instead of the factory remote to lock the car , or do I have to use the compustar additionally, after locking using factory remote ?

Please consult with the dealer that installed the accessory

I have a '23 Rav4 XLE hybrid. The wife and I both love it. However I have a problem with android auto. I have no problem connecting, either wireless or wired, but it will disconnect anywhere between 2 and 30 minutes. I get the message "connection timed out". I have tried every tip I can find on the internet but nothing seems to help. If anyone out there has any idea how to fix this it would be greatly appreciated. As I am running out of ideas I am currently considering reinstalling the apps on the infotainment system as a last gasp effort. I almost forgot to mention that after it disconnects I have no problem reconnecting by simply restarting the infotainment system.

[@jaroslavscz1821]

Very informative. Now I don't have to read the manual !

Known issues w/ Toyota connect? I just got my 2024 Rav4 XLE Premium and the app may work half the time if that! Not very happy w/ that and won't be purchasing when trial is up. I think Toyota should be investing more money on this side of technology as well as their vehicles.

[@sartajbhullar3782]

It felt to be a bumpy ride during test drive. Is that something you have noticed too ?

It’s totally subjective so as a pickup truck driver, most cars feel super soft and comfy to me.

Hi Brian How do i accept and decline connected services? Not interested in drive connect only interested remote and safety connected services..

[@brianruperti]

You basically accept all of the services and whichever ones you don’t want to use you don’t need to worry about using because Toyota does not automatically charge you when the trials expire.

[@JWM5773]

@@brianruperti select which service you want on the app?

[@brianruperti]

When you download the app you have the chance to accept the terms and activists whichever services are available. You have a bit of picking and choosing to do. Did you just get the car? Your salesperson is specifically supposed to do this with you.

@brianruperti no it won't arrive for awhile ...just doing research beforehand . Your knowledge and videos are very helpful. Thank you!

[@joanlendemer]

I think a lot of the features are manual. I was thinking of a RAV4 but from what I see they are AWD. I do not want a moon roof. The manufacturers are shoving a lot of features to the consumers that are very confusing. Depending on the model leather is no longer leather they want to protect the environment. I will just have to stay with my car for now. Thanks.

[@brianruperti]

What about the RAV4 LE? Or the XLE base without packages so you get the electronic seat but not sunroof or heated stuff?

[@joanlendemer]

@@brianruperti need leather seats due to a bad back for many years also need a lift tailgate. I would be giving up a 6 cylinder for a 4. I understand the 4 is powerful. Definitely no hybrid. I spent 2 hours with a Toyota trying to sell me used or hybrid or Highlander. They wanted a deal that day. Have had Highlanders venza Lexus. I was just looking for a smaller SUV. Thanks.
