Converting my corolla into a Sportivo
Hi just recently started this project recently picked up 2006 Toyota corolla seca hatchback. Looking the to do a full sportivo conversion so far I have sourced a rear wing sideskirts and wheels. Still trying to source everything else it's been quite difficult. List of parts I need Full interior trim and front and back seats (seats in good condition have been extremely difficult to find) Front lip fog lights and wiring and switch Eventually a 2zz-ge engine swap since my car is automatic I might be wrong here only option is from a 2000+ Toyota Celica ZR. Here are the wheels and sideskirts fitted. Next will be painting the door handles and paint and fit the rear wing. Thanks for your time. -

RAV4 2024 engine / driveline clicking noise
I purchased a new 4WD RAV4 Cruiser in August 2024 After 2,000 kms a clicking noise developed from the engine bay area when either accelerating or deaccelerating, this is most noticeable at low speeds The clicking noise can be either a single click or up to 3 or 4 clicks rapidly occurring. I returned my vehicle to the selling Toyota dealer for diagnosis, however they advise this is a relatively common issue and they don't believe there maybe a fix Has any anyone else experienced this same issue ? -

2019 Toyota corolla cant find “vehicle settings” menu
I cannot find the vehicle settings on the menu list to reset a maintenance interval. Is it hidden on Australian models? Is there a trick to locating it or removing the “engine maintenance required” notification? Vehicle just had a 150000Km service at my local mechanic and we couldn’t work out where the item had gone? Hoping someone can help me, Ben -

Engine cuts out after starting occasionally.
Check your fuel lines, especially the ones going in the fuel filter. Twist them see if they move. If so replace the spring clamp with a screw type one solid band. -

Ticking Hilux 5le
Thanks for the replies, I believe it’s the exhaust manifold gasket as I had someone rev it while I listened in the engine bay, noise is only on the exhaust side. Probably doesn’t help that the steering column seal is completely gone so the noise can get in the cab easier too. I’ll change it out and update if it fixes it. -

Engine cuts out after starting occasionally.
Hi, in the last week my 2016 Landcruiser has developed a starting problem. Occasionally it fires up ok but then shuts down after 5 sec of running . It can be restarted if I turn the car off wait and crank it over for 20 sec. Local Toyota dealer found no faults or error codes. Has any one experienced the same issue ? -

Prado 1997 Petrol 6 Cyl GXL - GCM Specification
Hi All, Not surprisingly I have spent a lot of time trying to try and find the specifications for the GCM (Gross Combination Mass) for a Prado 1997 model, 6 cyl petrol vehicle. There was nothing that I could find in the owners manual on either of these and only he GVM on the VIN plate of 2710Kg. I know its pretty old, and wanted to check what size caravan that it could handle. I have found on whichcar.com.au a figure for GCM of 3460Kg (nothing on VIN compliance plate) and GVM of 2710kg (on VIN compliance plate). With a van of 2500kg and GVM of 2710kg it is already 5200kg, so the max van (+ loading) size would be 750kg. This doesn't seem to make much sense and can only wonder if the GCM figure is too low for the 1997 Prado. Be a great help if anybody has any suggestions on what the correct GCM figure is or where else could find it. I tried the Toyota website and didn't have much luck finding any thing for it. Hope some one can help. Thanks, Paul
