Hmm, I can see some Bendigo-Ballarat meet's as a possibility in the future

Hahah could do that - haven't been to Ballarat in a while! Aurora would certainly appreciate the cooler temperatures there lol

And to answer your earlier question there are a couple of female drivers now, myself and Barb. Ying is around in Melbourne too, though her partner Michael drove to the BBQ on the weekend. And often girlfriends/female friends tag along too so whilst its mostly guys (who are all a friendly bunch!) you wouldn't be the only girl red97. Both Barb and I are in Bendigo.

So long as someone guides me in Ballarat then, coz I have no idea, very easy to get lost for me seeing as how I don't usually see the town. Now that would be rather comical, if youself, Tash, Barb and I headed to Ballarat and met with red97 then I'd be the only guy, outnumbered 3 to 1 :o Actually if you count Abby, Aurora and Luna.........And Abby would love the cooler temps as well :D

Hahah yeah, I'd be relying on Ken (the GPS - its the name of the Aussie voice lol) to tell me where to go! That would be a change, a TOCAU meeting where the girls outnumbered the guys :lol: Poor Aurora doesn't like the heat, having the air con on sucks her power :( Bring on Autumn and Winter!!

-Yay! that would be great! There really isn't a lot of good toyota's up here! (I mean, other than the 2 Supra's that get around a bit)

-Wow! ok! haha it's good to know I'm not the only girl on here!

All is welcome, its nice to see girls taking part in the car scene/culture, breaks up the monotony of being around guys all the time, not that anything is wrong with that.. :whistling: :P

A little daunting to think I will be the only girl there, but it's cool!

It was very nice to meet you too Ying :) Sorry we didn't stay much longer after you got there but we needed to get back to Bendigo.

Would be great if you can make it at the end of this month!

Hey fellas

Was thinking about the meet we had two weeks or so back and how difficult it was to keep everyone together even though we were on the free and i know some of you have a walkie talkie/two way radio. What specifications are these radios? thinking of getting one myself and if anyone else wants one that would be great. A lot easier to keep in a bunch and saves us from tryna find your number while driving, dialing it in, waiting for you to answer etc etc while driving which is very unsafe.

Hey Reece, I've got a Uniden 049SX and it works pretty well - basically the stronger the wattage figure the further they will transmit. Buying a .05 watt one is pretty useless so they need to be at least 1 watt. The box claims to get 6km range but I've found this varies, like on some of the cruises I've been on if I've been towards the back I don't hear the guys at the very front. But its a great way to communicate and usually the message is relayed on by others to make sure everyone gets it.

They'll definitely be handy for the meet up our way so if you can pick one up that'd be awesome :) There seem to be a lot of Uniden's on Ebay but ***** Smith, Harvey Norman, Autobarn etc etc all sell them.

Mine's 40 channels, but there are a couple in that range reserved for emergency use.

That looks alright but if you can go for one that has rechargeable batteries, as it'll come with a base station to recharge them as well as the earphones if you prefer to use it that way :) I also take along some spare AA batteries in case the rechargeables run out but the rechargeables are great, have saved me a lot of money instead of buying batteries for it all the time.

Naa... The meet is usually at the same place and time unless told otherwise, but they always announce it here before the actual meet.

Keep an eye on this thread.

      Wobble at the front

      Vibration under acceleration is quite commonly due to a failing CV axle. I had it happen on my old Aurion where coasting would be fine and under acceleration/load it would start to vibrate quite violently.

      Brake issues

      Had the rear rotors machined. So far have travelled under 10k kms and the problem has come back, albeit not as bad. Will have a chat with the guy who machined the rotors and DBA also. Maybe need to replace with genuine Toyota items.

      Best Oil for 2014 Lancruiser GXL 200 series TT V8 Diesel

      Hi Ross, we have a 2013 Landcruiser. Played with various oils and concluded that 5W30 Synthetic is the best option. Nulon seems to be on special often, GW is also good. Castrol Magnatec not really suitable for a diesel. Penrite is also good but try and stick to a full synthetic. No real need to change oil at 5000 Kms unless you worked the engine towing. I found that the oil level dropped when using the gearbox to slow down like you do in a manual. Other then that no oil use at 140k kms. Best oil is AMSOIL, but unduly expensive. Controversial but I swear by it is a 'catch can'. If you don't have one, get one but the right one for the car. Initially I was skeptical about its purpose but am sorry I did not get one from the beginning (new). If you check the design of the engine, the cam chain run just below the PCV valve. IMHO this promotes oils being flung into the PCV valve and hence the inlet tract. A catch can will catch that oil - no pun intended.

      rear wheel arch hole covers (3rd row seats removed)

      I ordered the Booxe Gap Caps from South Africa. Way better quality than the ones from Nautica. A little more expensive but looks way better installed. FYI one 3rd row seat weighs 15.4kg's that's a weight saving of nearly 31kgs with both removed.

      2013 Kluger grande Bluetooth music issues

      I have a 2011 Grande and it is not possible to play music via the bluetooth without using the aux connection. I bought this product which makes it a wireless bluetooth experience. https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B0BG2GMH8S?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title This device connects to your phone via bluetooth and connects to the car via the aux connection. For me, once the car starts it all connects up, I say Hey Google, play music and the car plays music without having to connect my phone to any cables.

      2010 MANUAL Prado with high speed acceleration hickup

      I have a 2010 manual Prado with 196,000 km that has excellent service history Injectors were done at 130,000 km and today I replaced the fuel filters as a first step for this issue. The car pretty well drives perfectly and I have no issues with it Other than if I'm sitting at 110 km an hour and put my foot down it hesitates for a second like a cough. It only does it at this speed. If I'm sitting on 100 and accelerate it doesn't do it and same with any other speeds like 60 or 80 put my foot down it's fine, only does it at 110. Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Thank you

      Best Oil for 2014 Lancruiser GXL 200 series TT V8 Diesel

      My 2008 Sahara has 630,000 km on original engine and injectors. I run Gulf Western Top Dog 10w 40 semi synthetic oil, spec is CJ4 low Ash . Last EGR inspection at 400,000km revealed no soot. Engine still has same oil pressure as new and great fuel economy....Top Dog oil is for heavy duty truck diesel engines, not cheap but neither is a new engine..20K plus.

      2013 Kluger grande Bluetooth music issues

      Hey, can anyone help? We have a 2013 Kluger grande, Bluetooth iPhone and calls work well through factory radio. To play music we have an aux cord plugged in. Anyone know how to just Bluetooth music from phone through factory stereo? It’s weird we can Bluetooth calls but not music. Thanks for your time and help.
