GVM UPGRADE ON LC300 GR-SPORT VARIANT
In SA unfortunately. This is a bit of a vexing issue as there is a variety of opinion from many providers. Common theme has been that the loss of the AVS / electronic dampening is not much of an issue whilst others have proffered that you lose the ability to select Sport Mode which involves engine and trans settings. Trying to get to the truth. -

New RAV4 Hybrid Cruiser two wheel drive battery issue
I’m a new user of Toyota, I just bought a brand new RAV4 Cruiser Hybrid 2-wheel drive 2024 two weeks ago. Now there are some issues made me uncomfortable. The first one is the average oil consumption is deadly sticking to 5.3L per 100km and never goes down anymore, the battery indicator shows it has never been in full charged, and the power level dropping is very fast, even at night time, when I parked the car in the garage last night with battery power level at 6 of 8, and I started it this morning, the power level dropped down to 3 of 8, only one night parking. Is there any one experienced for hybrid car user can tell me if this case is usual or not? I strongly doubt the battery is not brand new, am I right? Or who knows where I can have the car battery inspected or tested to make sure it’s new or not? -

New RAV4 Cruiser Hybrid 2024, newToyota user
Hello everyone I’m a new owner of Toyota vehicle, I just bought a brand new RAV4 Cruiser Hybrid 2024 two weeks ago. Now there are some issues made me uncomfortable. The first issue is the average oil consumption is deadly sticking to 5.3L per 100km and never goes down anymore, the second issue is battery indicator shows it never been in full charged, and the power level dropping is very fast, even at night time, if I parked the car in the garage tonight with battery power level at 6 of 8, when I started it next morning, the level drops down to 3 of 8, only one night parking. I am looking for some experienced hybrid car user, can you tell me if my case is usual or not? I strongly suspect the battery is not brand new, anyone can tell me the answer? Or tell me where I can have the car battery inspected or tested to make it clear if it’s new or not? -

Aurion Brake fluid
I believe they originally had DOT3 as the specified fluid and not soon after DOT4 was introduced, DOT3 & 4 are compatible with eachother whereas DOT5 isn't. So DOT3 is correct as that's what the reservoir states I believe but as of now DOT4 is probably recommended instead as it is superior. Although after saying that I have no experience with the 50 series so not sure what's suggested for them. Can mix and match DOT3 & 4 so you will have no issues either way- 1

Aurion Brake fluid
I bought 'Repco brand' Dot 3 fluid the other day. Then later, went on their website where it said it wasn't compatible with my Aurion. I've messaged Repco, waiting for a response. Anybody able to comment ? -

Toyota prado 2018 Rattling noise?
To update to my previous post concerned my 2016 Prado having the same vibration, I have managed to have the problem fixed through a Toyota Service Centre. The problem was a worn cool air inlet, Part Item Code 1797130012 costing $86.23, which was replaced and there is no more vibration or rattle. Hope this might help someone solve their problem. Cheers Warren -

Old School Isolator switch
Hi all, New to the Prado forum. Apparently my new Prado is arriving mid Oct to early Nov and Ive been thinking of how I can minimise having it stolen or keys scanned to start and steal (somthing Im well aware of) To the brains trust, is there anything stopping me from getting a wiring diagram and simply tracing an appropriate wire and placing a simple toggle switch inline. We used to do this all the time with a switch under hidden away to eliminate starting. With todays CBUS and electronics I know its not as easy to isolate things, but say I tapped into the fuel pump circuit and manually turned this on or off.....or am I just being OTT and just ensure Ive got good insurance. What do others do to protect their assets as this is my first ever new car and as no one would ever want to steal my current Holden Frontera (25years and 360K) so Ive never had to give it much thought. Thanks
