So...has anyone got one on the way? Or even in their garage?

A Mate I work with has just ordered the first SX6 Sportivo going through Southside Toyota's books. He said he isnt 100% sure when he gets it, but should be within the next 2 weeks or so....

I will be asking for a little spin as soon as he gets it...and Il post some pics if he'll let me...

Order the Aurion Sportvio ZR6 with moonroof and dvd navigation, arrive by truck yesterday.

Will be ready next Wednesday the 29th November.

Once one in NSW in Cyber Green ZR6 as the car was delivered to a South Australia dealership as assinged allotment, but my dealership managed to arrange pickup, so it was loaded back onto a transporter then ship to NSW Penrith.

If not I would had to wait till March next year for the same colour.

The Aurion is nice to drive - but I already knew that. So far, one positive surprise: the parking assist may actually be useful (sometimes); one negative surprise (at least to the salesman): the spare wheel is not alloy but steel (but that is ok for me, I prefer 4 wheel rotation above 5 wheel rotation).

The photo does not tell much - it is a stock standard car.

So...has anyone got one on the way? Or even in their garage?

Hi,

I have got my Aurion SX6 for about a week and it already went back to service twice first is to reset computer, according to Toyota service center the code install in my SX6 is for supercharge version, it is not suppose to be installed in SX6 =_=" (what the @#%#@$@%#!!) and 2nd time is to change a faulty sensor which cause malfunction of VSC. Now I got another problem! I can hear a strange squeeze noise from rear window while car is moving. Just wonder is anyone got similar experience or just I am bad luck!

Cheers

Daniel

Hello all,

Picked up my Sportivo SX6 last Friday (29/12 - Ink). This car is truly beautiful and the fuel economy is brilliant. Everyone is still on holiday so I get very good runs from my home to work and the fuel economy is 8.7/100km. The tiptronic is one of the better ones that I have driven (except for 1st when you try to down shift - gives a violent ***** if the revs are not low enough). It is a very quiet car as my family now never know that I am home until I enter the door.

Haven't really tested it yet as I want the car to run in first (had a little test with the tiptronic and this car is brilliant for what you pay for - was told to slow down by cops on the weekend as I was entering the freeway as the car had already reached 150km/h before I connected and the entry to the freeway was about 200m).

So far i haven't had any problems with the car (maybe because I am enjoying the stereo and oblivious to any sound that is coming from the car.

I got it as a fleet car so paid very little for it (about 32k with no trade in). Was originally going to get the Camry but delivery was going to be in March. I lost the leather interior from not getting the Camry but gained 83kw which I am very happy about. I reckon that Toyota would do even better with the Camry Sportivos if they at least got 147kw from that engine but that is just my opinion.

I am not sure but I got alloys as my spare.

Difficult to say - I traded in a Camry CSx 1998 (185000km), got 5 years warranty, and had to pay almost $35,000 driveaway!

Wow! Which dealer did you buy your car from? I'm interested in the ATX too.

Beautiful car... the shape of the new Aurion is going the way of the Commodore I feel, but with those nice rounded Toyota-blessed looks!

I couldn't believe when the Aurion was announced as a 202kW WITHOUT Turbo! Amazing feat of engineering...

If I had the cash... that's the only thing holding me back. (That and having to re-finance from the Vienta I've currently got... :))

fair enough it might be going the way of the commodore.. But i think that that is sorta where it has to go, toyota have to have something to compete with the falcon and the commodore, and this is the car to do it i reckon

Agreed... I quite like the look of it!

There was discussion of the Aurion TV advertisement over at the AussieMagna forums about a Magna driver stamping on his steering wheel when beaten by the Aurion... bwahahaha

If I could get one for 32 I would buy one but with no fleet price it is not worth me changing.

      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.
