Hey Guys,

I've just noticed on my '02 Rolla that when I switch to High Beam only the centre two lights are on.

ie. the two closest to the grill.

When on Low Beam the outside two are on (which is normal)

Is it normal for only the centre two to be on when switched to High Beam ???

Edit : I know the Low Beam Globe is single filament only, but I thought it would stay on for both high and low ! Edit/

Can someone confirm this please ?

Cheers !

thats what i was about to say also :P

otherwise wires may be shorting inside dash when u flick the switch forward. when u pull the switch back to flash do the lowbeams turn off also?

BTW mine is a 03 stivo so pretty sure its all the same

      Engel vs Dometic vs Evakool vs Bushman 4x4 fridge?

      I've got an evakool 85litre and love it. It looks a bit wierd with the compressor on the outside but gives a nice big box shape inside with 2 baskets, which allow it to work as a fridge freezer.

      Have got a 2017(I think) Prado we've replaced the standard multi media unit for a pioneer unit. We've lost the ability to see the range and fuel consumption. Is there a way to get this back?

      Change Low Beam Headlamp on 2003 Corolla...

      Problem solved - and a correction: read above instead "...ABS assembly..." How? User a pair of long-nose pliers to gently pull one of the "ears" of the rubber dust cover and loosen it. After removing that it was still a tight squeeze, but the bulb was accessible.

      Tyres...... a sticky topic.....

      Good morning fellow members, 2017 Toyota Camry RZ tyre size 225/45R18 I recently installed Good Year Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 tyres after doing "just a bit" of research, these are in the same class as Pilot Sport 5 tyres but circa $50 per tyre cheaper (they are fairly evenly matched with each just outperforming the other in certain sections). I have previously used Bridgestone RE003's, Bridgestone Potenza Sports, as well as the original Bridgestone ER300 that came with the car. I decided against the RE003 because the last time that I had them fitted (which is what I just had replaced), the quality just wasn't there... the sidewall protection was all but gone, and they SEEMED like they had less grip than I remember them having (when I had them fitted to the same car previously). Which is very subjective since I previously had fitted the Potenza Sport tyres, but again it just felt off. I decided against the Potenza Sport because as pretty much EVERY review on them mentions and which I noticed..... that the tyre wear is excessive, and they don't start with a lot of tread depth either. Due to my "spirited driving" at times I preference grip over fuel economy, and I wanted the tyres to last longer than previous tyres. After a few hours of research I settled on the Good Years and even waited for them to come back into stock. My thoughts so far? Instantly feeling the car rolling better.. without any noticeable loss in grip. What I mean in regards to rolling better relates to both "off throttle rolling" and how much throttle is needed to accelerate / maintain speed. So far I have been impressed with my first long distance drive, but due to the many variables it is hard to say whether certain fuel figures are the new norm or if they are the result of the new tyres and oil used (oil change was months before the tyre change). The problem is that I usually only do short trips (to and from work), and even these have many variables. But based on previous experience in regards to cruising speeds, the most optimal to keep it just under 2000 RPM was 106 km/h (speedo indication), but now doing 110 km/h would still have me just under 2000 RPM. Leaving Easter Saturday starting from the Shell fuel station as you're leaving Newcastle in a Westerly direction to Taren Point in Southern Sydney, non-stop with flowing traffic and leaving at circa 9am with temps 20-28 deg C yielded a fuel economy of 5.7L / 100km The engine oil that I'm currently using is Shell Helix Ultra 0W20 So the combination of the 2 yielded the result BUT I did the oil change several months before, so I am able to confidently say if what I noticed after changing the tyres was from the Engine oil or the new tyres. Just though I would post this in case anyone else is in the market for tyres.
