[2bikes]

Hi all,can anyone with a 2020/21 Rav4 hybrid measure the outside diameter of the steering wheel for me ,got our 2021 Excel in Tokoyo red arriving 1st of March and want to get a Disklok steering lock ordered ready .one was stolen round the corner from us a couple of weeks back ,the owner knew nothing about keyless relay theft or faraday pouches etc😣 ours should have the auto sleeping key but I've got a heavy tin in the draw for keys just in case .Thanks in advance .Ian.

I have had a small Disklok for a while now and its fit all the cars I have ever had, I cant say it will fit the Rav as I haven't tried it as I don't really see the Rav as desirable but I haven't found a car it didn't fit yet.

My 2020 is also 37.50 cm .

New Question , has anyone the correct info for   " 2020 Rav 4 Hybrid " steering wheel retaining method , some pic's show a standard nut type while other pics show a bolt  with flat head and hex recess . try looking it up on net and see what I mean , Toyota only give the torque for fastening  not even they can give me info I want . If it's a nut I need the size but I suspect it's that flat headed bolt with Hex to which no one gan give me the size . I want to update my steering wheel to D shape but need info before I start . Would also like to install paddle shift system for ease of engine braking / regen charging when towing  while I'm at it .

That’s one method but there is another method that doesn’t need to connect with your key so it doesn’t matter if your key is “asleep” or in a Faraday box.

Its a CanBus attack, which is covered in detail on another thread, so until / IF Toyota can offer a fix, you are indeed wise to invest in a quality steering wheel lock.
