Great cruise guys, had 7 cars so a good group to go with. Next cruise we will organise a bit more in advance. See you guys on the next one.

Very slowly - I don't think there is much of an attendance list for the 22nd, just a mild interest.

I'd like to tee up going to Mt Macedon, but if that's too far for people we can do that another time, and perhaps just meet on the 22nd at Bundoora Park or similar and get fish and chips?

hey guys... would love to come on this cruise!!

however it does co-incide with a rollaclub.com/toymods cruise which is organized and has some structure finalised.

FWIW....

i dont organise cruises any more for reasons that i am sure a number of you can appreciate.

the secret to a successful meeting, cruise, event is that you have a pre determined route, and location, purpose, date, schedule all sorted out before you post a "do you want have a cruise?" thread.

otherwise you end up with 5 pages of people deciding when/where/how/why when all attendants want is, a date with an event, and its a simple process of can i make it, or i cant make it.

just my 2c.

Totally agree Andy, not living in Melb I originally pitched it as a catch-up and was looking for suggestions on places to meet up that you guys have been to. My plan is to check out Mt Macedon this weekend and it can be the cruise for July, and then on the 22nd we can just catch-up for a lunch in a park somewhere. To save on organising this time we'll just pitch in and get fish and chips. Sooo... is there a good park near Kenshin's family fish and chip shop joint? Or another awesome one in the city?

If its the week before, the 22nd, it won't conflict with Reece's 27th Friday night meet-up, I mean we could have two meets two days apart but that probably won't work :lol:

Hi there,

just wondering if you may be able to keep me posted with when the next meet will be as I am keen to come along for my First time !!

Cheers

Wayne Jordan

Hey Wayne, of course! :) Just keep your eye on this thread as this is our pinned one for Victorian monthly meets, the TOCAU annual is taking place next month so looks like the next one will be in July.

There's also a meet planned for this Friday night too if you check out the rest of the Upcoming Club Meets & Events forum :)

yes this is also the reason why the meets will be all in THIS THREAD so that it does not clog up/clutter the forums. all people who want to organise a meet must pm either me or tash and we will update the first post accordingly

Yep there'll definitely be a meet-up in July, looking at this stage to be the last Sunday of the month and probably just a BBQ get together style one, I'm not quite back in Victoria yet after the annual so once I'm back and settled in I will get cracking with the planning :)

If anyone has some suggestions for a great park/meeting point we can sit and eat, even a snazzy cafe or restaurant I would love to hear from you ;)

Hey Lee, good stuff, pretty much along the lines of what I am thinking, try and meet up somewhere central-ish and then go somewhere, just need to pick the places :) That way we all get to catch up with each other seeings its been a little while, debrief after the annual and hopefully get a couple of new members along in what is a more gentle introduction.

Please do the meet sometime in the first 3 weeks o July. 4th week i'll be back at uni.

Uni commitments on a Sunday?? Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but keeping with the tradition of the last Sunday of the month that'd make the meet-up Sunday the 31st of July. I can't do it the Sunday beforehand and any earlier is probably a bit late notice given we're nearly at the end of June.

My tentative plan at this stage is meet-up somewhere like Albert Park as we have been there before, short drive to a restaurant/cafe nearby and then I thought we could go and do photos in front of the shed under the Bolte Bridge etc as a bit of nostalgia - been a long time since that meet! I will be going back through some of our old meet threads to check out locations we've met at before etc for some inspiration, but feel free to PM me some ideas for restaurants/cafes and photo locations :)

We used to go to Garage Cafe - http://www.garagecafe.com.au/ - not sure what it is like now but a great meeting point (not open on sundays though).

I like this idea! Last Sunday in July also happens to fall on my birthday, see how we go but if we can book in Garage Cafe then that would be awesome! Don't have to worry about Melbourne's unpredictable weather

      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

      Fuel filter change - start stops running

      We recently completed a service a few weeks ago. Following this, a warning light indicated water in the filter. We replaced the filter, but subsequently encountered starting issues. After replacing the battery, the car eventually started. However, after running for about five minutes, it stalled as if it had run out of diesel. We have primed the filter, engine starts but then car stops again. Any advice would be greatly appreciated

      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.
