  1. if the hybrid was available, i would have bought it when i drive it, I can keep the petrol consumption at reasonable levels if my wife drives it, the consumption is high hybrid would have helped
  2. well I took the plunge and bought from the ebay guys with the Bridgestones (they are actually Taleb Tyres, located just near Sydney airport) great job! quote was $250 per tyre fitted I actually fitted 3 tyres only, as I used the spare which is new (so they swapped the spare wheel with one already on the car) highly recommended
  3. it would help little kids getting in and out easier, probably the missus too
  4. Fujitsu Ten make high quality av equipment for vehicles, so that is great!
  5. from memory, the new klugers (back in 2008) had a problem with the wheel alignment or something structural that caused the tyres to wear out too quickly & unevenly- there were lots of posts on this forum about it. im sure its been rectified since then with the newer models, but wondering if our Klugers eventually got the fix for it during the regular servicing.... or are we still going to suffer again with the replacement tyres
  6. i just found on ebay, the original tyres at $245 each..... tempting i wonder if they are genuine?? as its so much cheaper than retail http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/245-55-19-BRIDGESTONE-DUELER-D400-TYRES-BRAND-NEW-ORIGINAL-TOYOTA-KLUGER-TYRE-/251013961714?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3a719917f2#ht_3104wt_1110
  7. Hi all ive done about 34,000km, and need to replace all 4 tyres to stay with the original brand (Bridgestone dueller 400 i think) is $395 a pop fitted!! (Parramatta, Sydney). alternatives such as Kumho was $328, and Hankook at $308 I prefer to move away from the Bridgestones because I felt they should have lasted longer? - just plain suburban driving, mostly short trips around the burbs. ANY suggestions, tips or comments?
  8. so is it confirmed you need to manually reset in the dash each time you fill up in order for the FUEL HISTORY to show?? I also have filled 4-5 times now, and the screen history is also blank I should read the manual i guess but its probably at the bottom of a very full glove box!
  9. make sure the disc is finalised and no more data can be burned to it (some programs require this to be set) also check if you can play the songs on pc afterwards
  10. Hi guys - can you please post some pictures of this cracking / splitting ?
  11. took delivery of the freddie, and they programmed the sunroof opening/closing via remote. as for the auto locking of the doors, i requested it, but it wasnt done. i looked in the manual that i received with the car, and there is no mention of this being able to be customised im thinking of getting the beeping sounds disabled when using the power tail gate. in the supermarket car park, people think its a truck reversing or something as its quite loud (the audible beeping when tail gate is opening or closing) overall EXTREMELY happy with the 2WD grande fuel consumption is only marginally more than our existing bmw sedan, but we get much more benefit from the huge space available to passengers and cargo (had to transport a washing machine last week, sinch! )
  12. From my memory the front sensor knows when its night ie dark, and compares light received via rear sensor and dims the glare accordingly
  13. Hi all, was hoping we could start a thread outlining what prices have been paid for recently, and which dealer you bought from. there are bargains out there with the clearances that all manufacturers have to do, particularly with Japanese companies as their end of financial year is March 31st ! thanks all

    Kluger features

    a) when reversing, does the left hand side mirror lower its view so you see the gutter? B) does anyone have automatic locking of doors when driving off from park ?

    Central Locking

    in another thread it was stated that the kluger can be programmed so the doors automatically lock once you start driving off. can anyone confirm they have this feature working currently ? If YES was it there by default or did it have to be programmed in ? thanks
