Bluetooth connects, disconnects, over and over.
I have started having an issue with the Bluetooth in my 2011 Yaris. When I first start the car, bluetooth connects to my phone, but only for a few seconds before it disconnects again. It does this over and over. Sometimes when I notice that it has just connected, I can start to play something on my phone (music) and it'll then stay connected. But the chance of doing this only happens after four or so times that it's gone through the connect/disconnect cycle. Has anyone experienced this? Is there some solution? Thanks. -

Tyres- 2020 2wd hybrid
Looking for recommendations/suggestions for replacing Bridgestone OEM tyres. Still legal at 53k kms but probably won't get to 60k. Am tending towards Khumo Crugen. Did more than 70k kms on our 2017 Sportage. Thanks in advance. -

2022 RAV4 Hybrid tow bar
Is it 2WD or 4WD. If it's 2WD I wouldn't bother. 400kg Max towing capacity. That's 40kg tow ball downweight. (Toyotas best kept secret). Essentially rules out an ebike carrier. Add one ebike eg and you'll be over. Found out after purchase. So this means if we go on holidays and want to take our bikes: one e; one conventional then we have to take my FG ute. It's more comfortable actually but twice the fuel and the dogs hate it behind the seats:) If it's 4Wd forget what I just said. -

Is it worth the buy?
Crack dash are a very common issue with those, you can cover it with dashmats Thirsty but like Tony suggested very bulletproof when service regularly, you might want to do a major service or at least get a experienced mechanic to do a pre-purchase inspection or whatever the car so you can start budgeting for replacement parts. At that age it's not the mileage but seals etc will deteriorate and need replacing. Worth asking if the 4x4 had any accidents before etc to make sure you know what to look for eg. insurance repairs vs backyard -

You can't go wrong with those STEDIs You might need to turn the steering wheel right and squeeze your hands through the guards up for a easier reach the left headlight socket.- 1

Wish me luck and I'll invest in some of those fancy gloves that mechanics wear so that I don't shred my hands this time!
