Toyota RAV4 (XA40) 2013-2018 Service Manual: Different diameter tire malfunction
Description
The skid control ecu measures the speed of each wheel by receiving signals from the speed sensor.
These signals are used for recognizing that all 4 wheels are operating properly. Therefore, all wheel signals must be equal.
Inspection procedure
- Check tire size
- Check the diameter of all 4 tires.
Ok: diameter of all 4 tires are equal.
- Check speed sensor rotor
- Remove the drive shaft, and check around the speed sensor rotor.
Ok: no scratches or foreign matter on the sensor tip.
- Check speed sensor
- Check the speed sensor circuit (see page bc-64 or bc- 70).
- Check wire harness (skid control ecu - each speed sensor)
- Check the speed sensor circuit (see page bc-69 or bc- 70).
- Reconfirm dtc
- Clear the dtcs (see page bc-47).
- Drive the vehicle at more than 20 km/h (12 mph) for more than 60 seconds.
- Check if the same dtcs are detected.
Result 
Replace abs and traction actuator assembly
Steering angle sensor zero point malfunction
Description
The skid control ecu learns the steering sensor zero point every time the
ignition switch is turned on and
the vehicle is driven at 35 km/h (22 mph) or more for approximately 5 sec ...
Downhill assist control operation switch (test mode dtc)
Description
The downhill assist control switch is connected to the skid control ecu in
the abs and traction
actuator.
Dtc c1379/74 can be detected when the downhill assist control switch se ...

Remove the radiator reservoir cap.
Caution:
To avoid the danger of being burned, do not
remove the radiator reservoir cap while the
engine and radiator are still hot. Thermal

Lubrication system
On-vehicle inspection
Check engine oil level
Warm up the engine, stop the engine and wait for 5
minutes.
Check that the engine oil level is between the l and
f marks of the oil dipstick.
If low, check for leakage and add oil up to the f
mark.
Notice:
Do not add engine oil a ...
