The chirping from the motor and the idle dip are my issues, although it doesn't affect anything, answers/solutions would be nice.

Rough idle (when coming to stop or anywhere for that matter). Reports exist for both 91 and 93 octane with and without ethanol.

I think this is supposed to be a list of things they haven't fixed yet or can't be fixed.

Cricket noise is semi normal.
Torque dip is permanent and they won't adjust it.
And the seat sensor has been fixed in a TSB already.

If you heard the volume of my crickets you wouldn't believe that it is normal.

There are a number of people experiencing this noise in Japan and some of them were able to get it fixed.
The fix is to adjust the spacing in the part circled in red below:


I want to have this known to Toyota/Scion in U.S. also, so that I can get mine fixed too.
YES! How could I have forgotten about this one??

An armrest and/or cover for the drink/ash tray holder area.

Bring up the gas issue and how they recommend 93 octane when the highest you can get at most gas stations (if not all) is 91 in California. And it all contains ethanol in California. I would think Japan engineers should have taken this in to consideration since California is a car person state and they'd be selling a lot of their cars to us. And we take pride in operating our cars to engineered specifications.

Thank You.
