Hi

I have joined the club to resolve a problem with my 1994 Corolla,I have replaced the front struts,but did not get the upper strut bearing with the new McPhersons , unfortunately these are not available any more, I have tried to get the bearing out (to see if I can find a replacement at a bearing specialist) but cant drill the spot weld out to free the bearing as it is either high tensile or stainless steel casing. (all I do is blunt the drill bit)

Without a replacement bearing I wont pass a pink slip for rego. (it makes a grinding sound)I have tried the wreckers for replacement but these aren't any better than the one I already have.

Could somebody please help?

      Replace Front RH park light Corolla 2006

      Hi, I am new to this forum and i hope i can get some help. The mechanic said he can't tell me how it's done. I will keep this in mind before i take a car there again. Interestingly, the manual only refers to the front LH side Replacement of the Front RH park light Corolla 2006, but not the RH side. Could anyone alight me on this? Thank you.

      Aftermarket Air Intake

      The camry/aurion NA ones fit fine with the TRD. The throttlebody is the same diameter etc. The main issue with them is the breather pipes are setup differently but that's not a big deal. I've not seen one designed specifically for the TRD(There are lotus ones but the engine is orientated differently). Some of the intakes designed for the NA version are as follows: -K&N: 69-8611TS -AEM: AEM 21-870C -AF Dynamic: 0715-TV-HS -HPS Shortram: 827-534 I designed and printed a MAF pipe and filter enclosure with an attachment to goto the stock air intake locations but never got around to create the pipe that connects the two together, If you have the ability to print in a high temp resistant material I can probably share my files. I personally use the AEM intake and it works and sounds well.

      RZN169 Poor fuel economy and low/rough idle at cold start up

      Hi all, First time writter. Long term reader. I have a RZN169r 1999 Toyota Hilux 3rzfe Manual 4WD with 425,000KM. Which we have owned from 130,000KM. Since about the 400,000km mark (it had a new/used 138,000km engine only, installed at 385,000KMs) it has been using fuel and idiling rough. I'm getting 100kms less then usual. We would normally get 450-550kms per tank. Now getting 350km-400kms. Our long term mechanic of 20 years retired a few years ago and I have no one in my local area who knows these engines or who I trust. Any sugestions on who I can take my car to? I also have no faith in my local Toyota Dealer. I'm in Sydney NSW. Thank you in advance.

      Purchasing 2014 Prado GXL - Requesting Inputs

      Hello, Thanks for reading my post. We're in the middle of the process of buying 2014 Prado GXL from a private buyer in Brisbane. It has 107K km on the odometer, we arranged an independent inspection and only noticeable issue came out of the inspection is presence of rust. Inspector said general wear (ageing) and rust to the components consistent with the age and mileage. I've attached some of the images(related to rust) from the inspection, please review and let me know if I should be concerned about any future issues or as the inspector mentioned is the rust presence is expected for a 10-year old Prado. Appreciate your help in advance. Thanks, VM
