Searched ebay but couldnt find anything

That's not good news! Is the cog plastic?

Wish I could help, can only suggest wrecking yards (or auto recyclers as they call them now!). I know Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne have Toyota dedicated yards.

Good luck with the repair! You need to find a fellow Kluger owner who's happy to swap your broken cog with one from a still under warranty kluger!

Love the idea of swapping my cog for someone who is still under warranty any volunteers!

So I had some time today to make some calls to Toyota ,total price $2127 very very funny.

Did get the part number 8500748010 and a quick google search came up with price at US toyota dealer of $928.44 ,have sent an email to see if they will ship to Aust.

Coover the cog is made of steel and it looks like I can remove the cog. What are those machines called that can make an exact replica of a part, I have seen them being used on tv.

Thanks

Will try a few wrecking yards when I get the chance.

That price is correct, what a rip off though. Ford Falcons have the same problem and there were a few places on ebay selling a repair kit for them which had a new cog. You might be lucky and there might already be something like that for your car either here or in the states. At this stage though wreckers it is..

Ok so I finally found the time to fix this problem .Spent couple hours on the phone to the wreckers and found a motor for $220 out of an 09 Grande.

I was expecting it to be a nightmare to fit but I got it in and operating in about 15 minutes, it took me half an hour to put the trim back on.

Very happy with the outcome compared to $2200 from dealer plus fitting.

      Brake issues

      BTW forgot to mention that there is no shake in the steering wheel. The 'shudder', really hard to describe but almost like brakes on and off. Cannot identify front or rear or both. Got me totally miffed.

      Brake issues

      Hi everyone, new to this forum - refugee from LCOOL. Had a minor shudder when applying the brakes. Also was somewhat intermittent. Having over 100k on the clock a lot which were done towing a big van, I thought I may have warped a disk. Checked them with a dial gauge but no useful info. Bit the bullet and replaced all 4 with new slotted rotors and pads from DBA. Huge difference in braking. However the shudder has return almost with a vengeance. Thought I fixed the problem when I disconnected the ECU for another unrelated issue. ECU is remapped, car went in limp mode and could not clear it with the scangauge. Problem not fixed and I am lost as to why this is happening. Plan on visiting Berima Diesel later on this year to have the injectors checked and I'll get them to look at the brakes if I still haven't figured it out. Any suggestions would be welcomed. Thank you

      200 series won’t shift past 4th gear

      Hi everyone, new to this forum - refugee from LCOOL. Having read some of the replies, to the best of my knowledge there is no such thing as a minor remap. Toyota in their wisdom have the software in the ECU such that it cannot be downloaded, modified and reloaded. It has to be a complete reload, either stock or modified. All you fellows disconnecting the battery is a good and simple way to try and reset everything but similar results can be achieved by simply disconnecting the ECU. That's the big plug in the firewall passenger side. Meanwhile I may need to start a new topic for the following issues I am experiencing: Had a minor shudder when applying the brakes.

      G’day from NSW

      G’day All just got a 2012 (old shape) Corolla Ascent Hatchback Auto. Needs a few things done, it was my Dads who just passed away. Going to install pioneer head unit (basic one really) as a start, then maybe upgrade speakers but I’ll see how the oem ones go, I’ve read I’ll need at least 50w ones for the pioneer. Front inner plastic guards are a bit trashed along with bumper bar, just need to neaten it up a little. cheers Sparky

      Head Unit Replacement for 2010 Toyota Corolla Hatch

      G’day TGA, hope you got this sorted, just about any 2 din would fit. I’m putting a pioneer one in but I’d like to know how to pull the trims apart to fit it 🤨 Every video shows the sedan with a different gearshift with short trims to remove but those 2 lower side ones are 1 piece on the hatch and I’m struggling. Do I need to remove console box to start removing those side piece. Any help cheers Sparky
