lol i luv chatting on the CB, iv only got a little weak handle head one these dayz thou.

just a thought for everyone travelling up to redhead after lunch we hav a coupla choices of were to cruize next -

after we follow through mereweather hieghts senic route (follows the coast past rich ppl houses into newcastle)

- follow the coast round to the forshore and just cruise round there (its a sunday so it will be packed with everyone esle wanting to show off there cars - usuallly commodores so it will be good to flood it full of toyotas)

-we could then go over the bridge to stockton beach, u just follow the coast round to were the ferry wharf is and theres a big carpark ripe for photo taking.

another option is heading to charlestown square for some retail therapy lol

either way is a pretty staight cruise - sticks to one windy long road - lots of spots to pull over and take great pics - plus if the weathers nice even pop in for a swim on the beach (goodluck with that)

any other ideas are welcomed:)

well we've decided to cruise down past the foreshore on the way into redhead... i still havent changed the maps cos im way too lazy, but i updated the written directions to say that...

so yeah if we've already been through the foreshore once, it would be good to cruise somewhere else afterwards... and on the way home, the people who want to can take the O.P home...

right... so which way r we going because now im confused....we keep changing directions....

in the begining everyone was goin to follow the hwy to the end and come out at newcastle/hexham then cruize throught to the forshore, round the coast and then to redhead - but then due to the large group it was changed to following the coastal hwy up (completly differnt way) and meet first at redhead beach, then cruise were-ever everybody agrees.

so whats actually happening? :S

yeah we're going to take the whole group up into newcastle and along the foreshore and then follow the coast down into redhead... have a look at the written directions in the first post and tell me if that's an appropriate way to go... i just made them up from the whereis maps...

this is pretty much the whole directions from the end of the hwy to redhead beach - the way im goin and the way i thought we were going originally -

at end of the hwy, take the right exit on the first round about

- this leads onto john renshaw drive then onto new england hwy

- follow this through hexham and into newcastle (the rd is also called old maitland rd)

- follow this rd for a good 15min, ull go through heaps of traffic lights and round abouts, following the coast round

- turn left at honey suckle drive, follow this onto workshop way (around the big buildings) then onto wharf rd (this is the foreshore)

- to get to red head follow this road straight ahead-

- tun left again onto watt st,

- right onto ordance st,

- left onto reserve rd,

- merges into bingle st then high st (all left turns)

NOTE: i dont take Shortland Esplanade cause its usually packed and the other way is blocked

- then merges to the right onto memorial drive

- then merges left into helen st

- left at the round about onto fredrick st

- this merges into senic drive and ends at the pasifc hwy

- follow pasific hwy till kahibah rd

- turn left at kahibah rd (into mereweather)

- merges into wallsend st

- then left onto burwood st/rd

- follow to the end and left onto dudley rd

- turn right onto redhead rd

- then left into steel st

- and finally left again at beach rd

you should now be able to see the beach and the big car park - this is redhead beach

i know this sounds complicated but truely it isnt. all u have to do is follow one road, turning left occasionlly. origanally everyone was going to meet at the macdonalds in hexham to get our bearing then id lead everyone through this area to the beach. im still happy to do that if need be.

also if u look up wharf rd, newcastle on www.whereis.com.au and just follow it all the way round u can understand what im talking about.

great...u can take over where from where i left of at the last cruise....screaming into the cb lol...

why would i do that, i'll just crack jokes, make silly sounds (random references to family guy). provide useful info (somewhere in the mix)

in the way of locations, i think going to redhead first, have some lunch / chat 1st. get all that are coming re-grouped over some food. then go from there. wheather we go up the foreshore to newy or another direction is something that should be decided on the day. i think it will all come down to the weather (hopefully sunny) I'll bring the eletronic UBD with me, and go from there

i agree with the meeting at redhead beach first, seeing as we have such a large group. although im coming form the oppisite - i dont know the way from syd up the coast to redhead, it probally is a quicker way then following the road all the way to the end of the hwy.

least from redhead we can discuss were everyone wants to go next.

      Wobble at the front

      Vibration under acceleration is quite commonly due to a failing CV axle. I had it happen on my old Aurion where coasting would be fine and under acceleration/load it would start to vibrate quite violently.

      Brake issues

      Had the rear rotors machined. So far have travelled under 10k kms and the problem has come back, albeit not as bad. Will have a chat with the guy who machined the rotors and DBA also. Maybe need to replace with genuine Toyota items.

      Best Oil for 2014 Lancruiser GXL 200 series TT V8 Diesel

      Hi Ross, we have a 2013 Landcruiser. Played with various oils and concluded that 5W30 Synthetic is the best option. Nulon seems to be on special often, GW is also good. Castrol Magnatec not really suitable for a diesel. Penrite is also good but try and stick to a full synthetic. No real need to change oil at 5000 Kms unless you worked the engine towing. I found that the oil level dropped when using the gearbox to slow down like you do in a manual. Other then that no oil use at 140k kms. Best oil is AMSOIL, but unduly expensive. Controversial but I swear by it is a 'catch can'. If you don't have one, get one but the right one for the car. Initially I was skeptical about its purpose but am sorry I did not get one from the beginning (new). If you check the design of the engine, the cam chain run just below the PCV valve. IMHO this promotes oils being flung into the PCV valve and hence the inlet tract. A catch can will catch that oil - no pun intended.

      rear wheel arch hole covers (3rd row seats removed)

      I ordered the Booxe Gap Caps from South Africa. Way better quality than the ones from Nautica. A little more expensive but looks way better installed. FYI one 3rd row seat weighs 15.4kg's that's a weight saving of nearly 31kgs with both removed.

      2013 Kluger grande Bluetooth music issues

      I have a 2011 Grande and it is not possible to play music via the bluetooth without using the aux connection. I bought this product which makes it a wireless bluetooth experience. https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B0BG2GMH8S?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title This device connects to your phone via bluetooth and connects to the car via the aux connection. For me, once the car starts it all connects up, I say Hey Google, play music and the car plays music without having to connect my phone to any cables.

      2010 MANUAL Prado with high speed acceleration hickup

      I have a 2010 manual Prado with 196,000 km that has excellent service history Injectors were done at 130,000 km and today I replaced the fuel filters as a first step for this issue. The car pretty well drives perfectly and I have no issues with it Other than if I'm sitting at 110 km an hour and put my foot down it hesitates for a second like a cough. It only does it at this speed. If I'm sitting on 100 and accelerate it doesn't do it and same with any other speeds like 60 or 80 put my foot down it's fine, only does it at 110. Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Thank you

      Best Oil for 2014 Lancruiser GXL 200 series TT V8 Diesel

      My 2008 Sahara has 630,000 km on original engine and injectors. I run Gulf Western Top Dog 10w 40 semi synthetic oil, spec is CJ4 low Ash . Last EGR inspection at 400,000km revealed no soot. Engine still has same oil pressure as new and great fuel economy....Top Dog oil is for heavy duty truck diesel engines, not cheap but neither is a new engine..20K plus.

      2013 Kluger grande Bluetooth music issues

      Hey, can anyone help? We have a 2013 Kluger grande, Bluetooth iPhone and calls work well through factory radio. To play music we have an aux cord plugged in. Anyone know how to just Bluetooth music from phone through factory stereo? It’s weird we can Bluetooth calls but not music. Thanks for your time and help.
