did you have an alarm system?

hope you covered with insurance.

Nope no alarm fitted, had purchased a system the day before and was getting it fitted on the Monday.

and amazingly no one noticed a thing :unsure::blink:

Side skirts themselves would be worth more than $500 unpainted...

$125 each unpainted (in Bisbane anyway)

Result of parking at Westfield Chermside at 2pm on a Saturday arvo to watch a movie. Was gone for less then 2 hours. :(

That sucks what happened, Similar thing happened in my last car. I parked in a proper car park, you know cameras and so forth, gets broken into (and all the cars around me) and I find out that all the cameras are dummys and they still wanted to charge me parking. I politely* informed them I wasn't paying and never been back since. And all that occured while I was watching a movie in the CBD. Had to be an inside job <_<

how could that happen without anyone noticing?! :blink:

Thats about 15mins work.

Damn, that's atrocious dude, very sorry for your loss, I hate thieving bastards with a passion.

What's happened to the wreck? was it written off?

Obviously targetted the seats, sideskirts, amps and whatever was in the glovebox (PS2?) and not professionals because the steering wheel is still there.

The insurance company (NRMA) wrote it off as a repairable write off. In the process of scrounging all the parts together to repair it... Hopefully be back on the road for Christmas. :yahoo: The only part I am having trouble with is the 6 stacker, i never used it before and don't know where it was situated... any pics/ info from you guys would help greatly. :help:

or its not a busy section of carpark

Was parked right outside the lvl 3 entrance of Myers... roughly 10-50 people per minute use that entrance at that time of day. :huh:

They got away with the 2 front seats, Glovebox (With Sevice books and video Camera inside), 6 Stacker, Side Skirts, 4x "CSA Speed" Alloy wheels & Gear knob. They also tryed removing the front Spoiler, though didn't succeed... They gained entry by smashing the drivers side window, also keyed the passenger rear quarter panel (fuel cap) and while removing the seats smashed the Climate Control Panel and Radio. :angry:

i'm with the nrma so hopefully it should be fine....

I am so sorry to hear about your Side Skirts Chris... How is it all going? Have you decided whether your going to claim it on insurance yet?

btw if u have a sportivo don't park it at westfields "mt druitt" or any shopping centre for extended periods of time

Agreed x ∞

dude, the 6 stacker is in the dash headunit in the corolla. If they stole the 6 stacker, they stole your headunit... which they obviously didn't because I can still see it there.

yep~ i was a little confused reading that msg

but its bad enough!!!!!

      2012 Toyota Landcruiser Lacks power

      Hi Mandy I have had something similar on a Nissan, no lights and no power. Does it make any unusual noises when putting your foot down? Pinking noise, whooshing or hissing noises? I take it you have had a code reader plugged in? Wondering if the MAF sensor is reading air intake incorrectly, giving this a clean with isopropyl would be beneficial anyway, but these usually these throw a light and go in to limp mode. You LC has not gone in to limp mode? can you build up speed with it? Also have you checked the car when the iginition is on that the CEL light actually works?

      ‘97 Petrol 6 cyl ‘80 Series knocking/rattle below

      Hi, Ive just joined, so Hello! I have had a knocking/rattle sound for a couple of months, sounds like a loose panel/body moving on chassis. Mechanic checked all this and i was told it is a loose baffle in fuel tank. Still makes noise when main tank is half full. Has anyone else had or heard of this issue please? Of course I’ll get another mechanics opinion before any major decisions, but my research shows so far that i have a BIG, expensive problem getting it fixed/replaced. Has anybody else dealt with this particular problem please?

      1989 Hilux Low Voltage

      I,m pretty sure they run an external voltage regulator, mounted on the side in the engine bay, its been a while now so I'm not sure if the original had points inside which pit, stick and so on. Get yourself a fully sealed electronic one from the wreckers, as chances are someone has updated to cure symptoms like you are having, even one from another Toyota model eg Corona, will do, If yours is the original it will have a big black top on it, No more problems This is what you need; Buy Jaylec Voltage Reg 12V Denso Ext 026000-4050/4051/4070 For Toyota In589 15-867 Online | Rolan Australia

      DIY Update GPS Maps on Toyota Corolla Ascent Sport 2017

      Hi everyone, I own a 2017 Toyota Corolla Ascent Sport based in Perth, Western Australia. My car's navigation system currently runs on iGO Primo software (version 9.12.14.545514). I'm looking to update the maps and keep the entire system updated. I understand that the recommended method is to visit a Toyota dealer, but I'm interested in exploring if there's a DIY way to do this. Could anyone guide me through the process or provide any reliable resources or links? Here are the details of my current setup: Car Model: Toyota Corolla Ascent Sport 2017 Location: Perth, Western Australia Navigation Software: iGO Primo 9.12.14.545514 Specifically, I'd like to know: Where can I find the map update files that are compatible with my navigation system? What are the steps involved in transferring the map updates to an SD card and updating the system myself? Are there any risks or considerations I should be aware of before attempting a DIY update? I’ve looked through the user manual and some online resources but couldn’t find a comprehensive guide. Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance! Best regards,

      go to an jdm engine importer and buy a complete engine, much easier. You could even fit a 2zz ge into it
