Hi guys,

I'm a new Aurion owner as well as new to this forum. From the topics that you guys discuss, many owners out there install that Auspack head unit that has all-in-1 functions. It looks really awesome and just wonder can any of you guys can direct me to a trustable service shop in Melbourne that has the head units and can fix it up for a reasonable price. The installation looks complicated, would this void my car warranty?

What kinda of price am I looking at inclusive of installation?

By the way seems like there are a few different kinds of similar head unit on ebay, which one is considered the best unit? (Auspack?)

Thanks guys, really apprecitate your assistance!!

Hi,first post here..lol

i sent an email to Toyota Australia a while back and this is what they reply me:

Thanks for contacting Toyota in search of clarity on the issue of vehicle modifications. We appreciate the opportunity to outline the details of our warranty conditions for you.

If a vehicle is modified, the Toyota new vehicle warranty will continue to apply to the original components of the vehicle, providing they have not been altered from the manufacturer’s specification or impacted by the modification(s).

The Toyota New Vehicle Warranty will continue to apply if your vehicle is fitted with Toyota Genuine Parts and Accessories. However, any damage resulting from non-genuine modifications will not be covered.

I installed the head unit sold by autome305 on ebay after following the instructions posted here by members of this forum. It is here http://cgi.ebay.com.au/NEW-CAR-DVD-GPS-fit-TOYOTA-CAMRY-AURION-2007-2010-/320611146010?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4aa5e9d91a. I installed the rear view camera, but that stopped working (I think I broke it, I told autome305 and he said to send it back. I have done so a week ago, and am waiting a replacement). I did the installation of the head unit first go, without damage to the car, and I am a complete noob when it comes to car electronics/audio/etc. The head unit has worked perfectly. I live in Melbourne near footscray, if you want a look, let me know and I'll show you the system, we can chat about how to install it. I can show you how I installed the rear view camera too.

Did it myself thanks to DJKOR's instruction - make sure you've got a socket set and a 6in extension and its an easy job, this coming from someone with no electrical experience either, took me 45 mins. Would have been 25mins but I had to go and get the socket extension as the bottom bolts are a bit tricky to get to.

Thanks for the responses guys....seems like the installation of the unit doesn't affect the warranty as a whole.

Bush1e, i might drop you a private message and maybe when you are free i can just meet up for a quick look at the system.

Seems like its not too hard to install myself...i think only the reverse cam is more tricky. I suspect it needs to be triggered by the reverse lights i guess.

I am also a zero car/electrical knowledge guy , hope it goes well....

By the way guys, should I get the one with Digital TV unit or without? Different is $100 bucks. Can we watch tv without setting up an external antenna?

You will definitely need another antenna, and probably a booster, to pick up dtv. Mine has dtv, i installed the aerial that comes with it and couldnt pick up any kind of signal at all. Check ebay for all kinds of different antennas. I havent bothered with mine, I just dont know that I'd ever use dtv. on a bright day the screen is hard enough to see as it is when playing movies that have dark scenes(though Im getting the windows tinted next week, that might improve things a little). Ive seen an antenna around that has three antennas across the rear window and one external, that seems like it would do the best job.

Might be an add-on for a later date

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.
