Heya,

Well i kinda just got an update today from my dealer that the Xb, "Rumion", "Scion" or "Rawkus" as it will be named here (got i hope that was the name i was told :rolleyes: ) is being released in Australia by Toyota in a few months. I was told this while i was inquiring re the FT-86, which i tried to put a a deposit on :)...

For those of you that dont know it, here 'tis

I think this is the 09 model.. Modellista Kits available... ;)

And we are getting it with a 2.4l

TRD Linky

Our model is almost the same i believe. Not sure of the exact details (well i am but not allowed to say, and ive lost the paperwork :P ), but expect 3 levels of release, ie, standard, letaher trim etc, and top model is moonroof etc.. much like the Corolla range...

I know this car isnt a Corolla, but it does share the same chassis i believe, its a ZRE152N, so dont flame me for putting it up here! :)

There are plenty of jap parts for these, so expect to see some nice examples within the next year..

That's the pre-facelift.

This is the current (Facelift) model (1.5G, shown with optional Aero Styling Package.).

Seeing that the American xB has not been updated yet (At least cosmetically.), I wonder if we'll get the styling of the US version (Hope we do. Off-center bumper reverse light FTW!).

      3rd Gen (XU50) Kluger new aftermarket radio install

      Hi all, Finally got around to modifying the fascia kit. Not super happy about it - basically a hugely overpriced piece of plastic for what I thought would've been designed for RHD and is literally the cheaper brand I was going to originally buy (for LHD Highlander), might as well have bought it from Amazon or the like. The fit is off in relevance to the centre air vents. I might try a MkII version and modify a factory radio fascia if it really gets to me. I digress... Let's start with removal of the screen from the head unit. I love that this Pioneer radio has a separable screen for custom installations. Here is the Aerpro fascia after trimming. I should've just bought the Metra version if I knew that they were the same. The part behind the fascia kit is a bezel that I designed and printed to suit. I also ended up rerouting the microphone next to the clock as I couldn't find a solution to make the factory microphone play nice with the aftermarket radio - I trimmed away the mounting lug & drilled a hole to suit in the trim bezel, so far it's the only original Toyota part that needed to be modified, still holds securely and the mic is tucked away as much as possible. No negative difference in call quality so far either. There is still much clean up to do but was keen to see how it looks like fitted so please excuse all the epoxy. Hopefully I will get it finished soon; it should look close to OEM as possible when I'm finished. Next will be to install an amplifier I have lying around, new speakers and subwoofer and finally have a stereo with some form of depth and quality.

      Flashing 4WD Lo and VSC and Engine warning lights

      Not ideal where you are but I would ry a couple of things: Either disconnect the batteries (both) and leave for a good 10 mins - enough time for all electrics to discharge.. Another one which worked for me was to disconnect the ECU - big plug on the passenger side firewall. Same thing, allow for electrics/electronics to discharge. Not practical for you at this stage but if you can get a Scangauge. This will allow you to clear the codes. Car has gone in limp mode. I had this problem several times whilst towing a caravan due to a performance chip which would cause a limp mode. No more as I have had the ECU remapped.

      Long start time when engine warm - 2004 Corolla

      Hi guys, I’m a long time Toyota owner, and am currently enjoying a 2004 Corolla Wagon with the 1.8 1ZZ-FE. The car starts and drives really well, however during warm starts (after sitting for 5 minutes) the car cranks for around 6-8 seconds before starting. It’s worth noting the following: - The car starts right away in the morning or if it hasn’t been driven for a couple of hours. - There is no indication of rough idle or fluctuations when driving - Outside air temperature doesn’t seem to make a difference I’m wondering if anyone has experience with this issue? I’m leaning towards vapour lock in the fuel rail caused by leaky injectors? I’d appreciate any advice or if anyone has had a similar issue with their car. Thanks very much in advance, Oakley
