We have an original 1985 hiace trakka campervan conversion and need a mechanic in inner west Sydney who can look after her _properly_. Major service, brakes etc. Last two mechanics we tried were appalling; last one even forgot to fill the coolant and the oil up after a major service! Willing to pay more as long as the work is done properly. Anyone know a good mechanic? Please? Martijn Erskineville.

Hi Martijn

I am in the same boat. I have a 67 Light bus. Super cool and rare and I am looking for a mechanic also. I just joined this club today and it seems a few people are tired of lazy mechanics. Let me know if you find someone and I will share my research with you also. 

Cheers Emal

Hi Emal,

 

Seems this forum is not used much anymore. I have not seen any posts or replies... 

Anyway, after being recommended here, we now go to Ashbury Service Centre Address: 22 Charles St, Canterbury NSW 2193 Phone: (02) 9716 6415

They are awesome and honest mechanics and have done a great job on all works so far. Not Toyota specialists, but i'd say give them a try.

      Hi!

      Hi to all! Derek here, recently got our RAV4 Cruiser Hybrid 2024 from almost 2 years of wait. Before that we have and still keeping our trusty 2008 Corolla. I join the club because I'm a bit overwhelm by the features and the new technology that came with the RAV4, my wife is afraid to drive it because of this, more fun for me. 😄 Cheers, Derek

      Timing issue, 1994 st204 celica

      I’ve got a 1994 st204 celica with a 5sfe motor, it runs perfectly for 15-20 until it warms up then it starts misfiring and stops. Then when the engine cools down it will start and run perfectly until it warms up again. I have replaced the igniter, internal distributor coil, distributor cap, rotor button, spark plugs, spark plug leads. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

      Car Service and Car Tune Up?

      I think this is normal, auto choke engaged when starting and comes off after the engine warms up. Giving gas resets the choke. Herb

      Hilux Workmate 2x4 bulbar installation...

      I've got a few questions regarding the installation of a bull bar on my 2006 Toyota workmate Hilux 2x4. First off, the bulbar I am looking at will weigh around 30kg and I was wondering if would need to try and get some heavier duty shock absorbers and springs to compensate for the extra weight. Keep in mind that this little 2x4 gets a run for its money and is put mainly through the scrub, basic 4wd tracks, and corrugation. Secondly, The bull bar I have purchased is for a KUN 2005-2012 Hilux body shape, which from brief research will fit. A bit of confirmation would be lovely in terms of will it actually fit properly. Any help and or insight would be lovely.

      Car Service and Car Tune Up?

      Check the spark plugs. Also consider cleaning the throttle body and idle air control [IAC] valve. Search YouTube for the relevant videos for your vehicle on how to do this.

      Brake issues with 2024 Corolla Cross Hybrid

      Initially I thought ABS or Traction Control intervening as a result of loss of traction or grip but you said normal slow down so now I'm unsure. Perhaps a video would help us assist ? I have heard of some recall issues with the Corolla Cross & operational anomalies with the Toyota "SafeTSense" system in general, the later may be what you're experiencing & what Toyota would class as a "normal characteristic" of the car 😉
