Fuel Injection problem #1

The code scanner on both my and my mother-in-laws Toyota Rav4 (2000 and 2002) have read errors with the fuel ratio and now ours is claiming that the air fuel ratio sensors needs to be replaced. Ours reported errors p1130 and p1133.

Tank Assembly problem #2

Fuel tank access door has design defect. When opened (to gain access to fuel cap), it rubs the edge of the vehicle body panel surrounding the access door. This is also a problem with model 2001, as a friend has reported the same complaint. As for the vehicle glass, it was scratched easily from road debris being rubbed by the wipers, and also inside of the glass grit. This has never occurred with previous vehicles owned, so the glass must be unusually soft. **** dims 11 ivoq entry posted after 12/12/02 cut-over to artemis****760761.
