  1. My Aurion is sitting at 155k and at my last service, the dealer indicated that the waterpump had a slight leak and they will monitor it. I wonder at what point do I need to replace it? Anyone know if it will just get worse over time or just have a small leak which I can ignore.
  2. I wired a car camera in my car. I grounded it to a screw on a large round black bit of plastic under the glove box. It worked. My camera was set on "truck setting", so if the power was less than 21volt, it would shut off, so I changed it to "car mode" where power was less than 11.6volt and it worked. Double check you don't have anything like that. I tried that. Didn't seem to work for me. Yea. I understand that. But apart from the one that is visible. The others were just too hard to get to without taking off the Glove Box. Anyways, decided to finally take off the glove box. 5 Minute Job, wasn't as hard as I expected. And grounded it against the bolt all the other components are grounded to. All good now Thanks Guys!
  3. Hey guys. I'm just trying to wire a UHF Radio and I can't seem to find any grounding points near the interior fuse box. There seems to be a bolt to the left of the gearbox where a bunch of Brown and Black wires are attached to (I assume they are ground wires) but after 30 minutes, alot of swearing and using extensions, uni extensions, spanners I can't get into that. Does anyone have any other ideas?
  4. Hey guys. I have this same issue. I hope it is ok on this forum to bump threads. I have a ticking sound coming from this valve that is circled. Is that the PCV valve and is it supposed to be ticking like that Sienna? Car has done 135,000km
  5. ok. So on the Freeway, at 100 on the Speedo, GPS reads 92-93. 100 on the GPS, Speedo reads 108-109. Is that normal or out of normal?
  6. I might just test the speedo accuracy with a GPS or iPhone app and report back.
  7. I did not buy from a dealership but as I said in the first post, I suspect the car had this sized tires fitted from the dealer as the Spare wheel is 235/40/18 as well and from the previous owners original invoice, the car was optioned with Sunroof, Sat-Nav, Tow Bar and 18" Kappa Wheels.
  8. I understand that but isn't it weird that if the rolling diameter is so far off and I assume illegal? the dealer shouldn't have put it on the car in the first place?
  9. Hey Guys. I've just picked up a Sportivo ZR6 with some Kappa wheels last week. I did a quick search around here to see what tyre sizes you guys run and all of you are running 225/45/18 or 235/45/18's. My cars came with 235/40/18 tyres which I found odd. I just assumed that someone along the life of the car, the previous owner / tyre shop / dealer must have decided to use a different sized tyre for the car. Yesterday, I was cleaning up the car and thought I'd have a look at the condition of the spare wheel (also a 18" Kappa) and I noticed that it was fitted with 235/40/18 too. (This spare is new and looks untouched, I assume it was fitted by Blood Toyota (Selling dealer when the car was new). The tyre throws the speed of by 3% Does anyone else here have a dealer fitted 18" Kappa with 235/40/18 Tyres?
