well after selling my problem riddled 2004 sprotivo- (suspension and steering shake at 80kmh + :angry: )

lookks like the mrs kids and i might be getting back into a sportivo- currently we have a 2001 gt auto forester, but with tight parking at work and home, it really is to big for us (plus we dont use all the boot or go off road- only 1 time in SA).

If we can fit out 2 slim line baby seats and capsule into the rear seat- i think its a goer, just need to find a dealer willing to swap the forester for a sportivo (or a levin at the worst) with minimal change over- yes $$$ are tight.

We loved the size and practicality of the 2002- 2006-7 hatch and would love to get another one.

Remarkably the rear hip room is smaller in corolla by 10mm but has 20mm more shulder room from online specs. and this is where baby seats matter! shoulder room.

If anyone in vic has any options or contacts- let me know. cheers

Welcome back...! :D

Fitting the baby seats and capsule shouldn't be a problem. I have a child booster and baby seat in and it's quite ok.

yeah 2 no issues but its just in case of the 3rd syndrome, and 2 slim line up rigts and a capsule should fit.

im thinking id rather a vasectomy then get rid of another stivo. Rather have timing chains than timing belts anyday.

Foresters are good but 8200rpm is way better.

:lol: Get a sportivo first and you could always get a people mover later if the 3rd one comes along. :P

      Low Fuel Warning Light Flashing

      Hi guys,I have 2 solutions to this problem, Me : I have an early 2015 VDJ200 and I got the "Fuel system error" come up on the dash, my fix was, 1. Checked the relay for the Jet Pump in the main tank, found that the relay was not getting the earth signal from the ECU (for whatever reason). This stops the subtank from emptying into the main tank. I earthed out the relay and now the Jet pump runs as soon as you start the engine, 3yrs later and still going strong, no fault codes, all that is different is that you can hear the pump run when turning on the ignition. 2. Second possible cause (as written up in the now defunct lcool.org) The wiring on top off the fuel pump lid (connector) can melt and cause a high resistance thus stopping the pump from operating and therefore causing the subtank not emptying into the main tank. I hope this helps everyone who has this fault. Please note this applies ONLY to the Turbo Diesel V8 Cheers, Paul

      How many kms is too many 2014 150 series

      Hi We have 2014 Prado 150 series diesel which has done 304K kms. Serviced regularly. Timing belt done at 300K. Wanting to give to relative but don’t want issues for her. Is that number if kms going to be an issue. Or do you know of anything else which could be. Dianne TCB

      79 series randomly dies under power

      Most likely culprit would be an intermittant Suction Control Valve on the HP Pump. I also wouldnt rule out some FOD in the Tank...Like a piece of plastic floating around in the tank and blocking the pick up

      2019 LC76 4.5 V8 Injector issues

      Bailey's Injector group..They DLC more than just the shaft like the stock Denso injectors. Run a 2 or 5 Micron Secondary Fuel Filter. This will make the Injectors last well over 400K if you change both the Filters regularly. Be very very careful when reading + injector values.. More times than not the ECU is compensating for a lazy Pot If the Engine has no EGR delete then the Intake will need cleaning, and normally it's Pot 4 that suffer first due to a less than tuned intake and the preferred intake airflow path

      1VD - Ticking Noise

      Cracked Rocker..Its been known to happen. Inspect the Roller Rocker arms. This Valve Train has a roller rocker Hyd. lash adjusters..If it ticks then it's either a cracked rocker arm or less likely a buggered seal in the lash adjuster

      LC 300 Engine Maintenance Required

      More likely the dealer has not cleared the Maintenance when done. I assume you have already had at least 1 service?

      BATTERY in Klugar 4 years old

      This indicates that the battery is getting due for replacement. As a general rule expect 3 to 5 years for the lifetime of the battery. There are a few posts about what batteries members have selected in the past. Recommended Century battery models are NS70LX MF and NS70L MF for Toyota KLUGER. Last battery that I purchased was a SuperCharge brand truck battery model MF80D26L which will also be suitable for a Toyota KLUGER. Just happens that my other Century battery which is 5 years old is currently being recharged so considering whether I really need to get a replacement.
