Anyone had this Issue
took it for a spin this evening, A couple of times it gave a jolt and when it does the engine check light comes on and the high temp light come on and then both go out after a second or two and the car runs normal again, Tried running it with the temp sensor disconnected, still does it, My cheap rubbish ozito scanner from bunnings will not talk to the ECU (Not the only car, Only talks to my Holden), Yeah got me stumped, A bit apprehensive to drive it too far. -

New to Toyota - 2005 Corolla Sportivo!
Ahh from back in the day when Honda made awesome cars, that Prelude is one of them, nice. The Integra TypeR was another & had the LSD in it from memory which made it an awesome FWD car. It was the Celica ZZT's only omission but it was also available from TRD so one could always swap it. Lovely cars Honda. -

New to Toyota - 2005 Corolla Sportivo!
Was a 98 Prelude VTi-R. Was a great first car, had a lot more room compared to say a DC2 or an EK/EM model Civic and I didn't have to worry about swapping motors around seeing as the H22 was quite torquey motor and K series swaps were quite rare back then. I only had it for not even 2 years but I still have such a soft spot for them when I see them here and there which is becoming a lot less frequent these days. I did have the chance to buy a then higher km DC2R in phoenix yellow with the yellow recaros and interior trim but I couldn't wait for the person to "return from overseas" and the car had a lot of interest and then been an inpatient 18 year old, I didn't want the same car as my mate which is something I mostly don't regret. In saying that, after driving my mates DC2R it's arguably one of the best FWD cars I've ever driven. It's sharp, raw and everything is in the right place for the best driving experience.- 1

Camry high rise spoiler
it seems like every few years someone tries to find one of these, but has anyone owned or even seen the high spoiler for the 02-06 camry? I'd love to try and hunt one down, but at this point its looking like an empty trail. -

24 inch Toyota light bar
I was talking to our local Toyota spare parts manager about a Toyota light bar wanting to know some of the specifications. He said they didn’t have any available - these are available for a number of Toyotas But they have never managed to be able to identify any details on the light bar and have nerves been able to get any further information from head office. He said mine wasn’t the first enquiry but they have never had any complaints about them. You would think that this would come with the bar but apparently not so. Has anyone had one fitted and what was their thoughts. -

Throwing a P0047 OBD Code
Today I had a crack at diagnosis, I still have a permanent P0047 code and running in limp mode. I pulled the bigger plug off the turbo vane control stepper motor (3wire closest to camera), and it threw another code (P2564), when I placed it back again that fault code disappeared as expected. I then removed the smaller plug from the same unit (2wire further from camera), and there is no change at all... No extra fault codes and the same code remains so this is where my focus is right now. Logically I can go through the following in my mind; Boost ECU behind the glove box poked, vane operation jammed up, faulty stepper motor unit, or no power to it via the 2wire plug (didn't have a multimeter tonight to check). Questions; Does this stepper unit have a fuse and where is it, have I not considered anything, what would be your next step if you were me? -

Has anyone had issues re-installing intake camshaft 5SFE
G'day Herb, I'll look at the manual this morning when I get a chance - I don't recall seeing any tolerances listed but I just looked where I needed to. I have considered a bent camshaft and at the time of its removal, I was kind of thinking the procedure could bend it. The install procedure seems off to the removal. But as I have said, it was all done correctly, so I technically it should be fine. The engineers who designed it know better - right? (a little bit of sarcasm). Oh and I forgot to mention that it was running and seemed to be fine. I believe the head gasket was original and the engine looked almost untouched. Thanks Darryl
