Lately when driving the red triangle lights up momentarily. I don't have time to see if there is a message on the screen. It occurs at more than 100 km/h. Any thoughts? Thanks
And what are you doing when the triangle is momentarily lighting up are you turning are you going straight ahead applying the brakes GeForce is going any certain direction? All of these things can make a difference If you're not on the brakes and possibly not turning or doing anything extreme my first thought would be to check my bottom radiator hose and make sure that I am warm from the engine to the radiator and then the top hose should be warmer this is the hose that pushes the coolant to the radiator and then the fluid drops down across the radiator as air blows through it dwells a little bit to get cool and continues on down and so on. If there is a small leak or some water has evaporated out of the system or something and an air pocket develops this can get around the temp sensor and calls the master control light to flash and at the same time that should put a temperature thermometer shape in the little red car on the MFD and turn the little normally green car red with a thermostat showing in it so if you can ignore the master control light for a few minutes that's just telling you hey I need you to take a look at some stuff and then the stuff doesn't come up because it's so intermittent see if your MFD car is turning red and has a temperature scale through the car that's overheat If not. Also check your oil those are the two things that come to mind that will bring on the master control warning light seemingly randomly The oil business you usually have to be going quite smartly around turns and it will flash and then when you write the car it might flash again. Checking your oil on level ground shows you down almost well to the very tip or maybe not even that maybe not even on the scale up the oil properly and that all stops same with the coolant You have the coolant full properly cap off etc should be no air no bubbles no hot spots no flashing light
This is not an answer but a service book! I have checked the oil, not a problem there, I know that low oil level causes it but when car is on a corner, not in a straight road. I will check coolant and radiator to see for leaking and also water pump if you suggest. It happened when the car was running hard, did nothing but kept on driving. Yesterday after an instance I kept pressing hard the car but It never happened again.
Thanks. The battery discharges quickly during acceleration. It doesn't last like it used to. To me, that means it probably needs to be replaced soon. Toyota told me to wait for a message. I actually asked the possible cause of the red triangle, because I was afraid it might be dangerous.
i hope they are correct. the only 'message' we get on n/a models iare the trouble lights, and the message is, 'there are trouble codes set'.
You may have cylinder misfires, but not enough to trigger a code, yet. Look at the misfire counts in your car live data if you have a good enough code reader.
