traumatized

umm.. i havent really had anything fixed under warranty.. only a clicking door which is just the check strap.. so it was not anything major and of course the ecu recall

ohhh yummy, well done!

are you referring to Hexx's avatar? hehe

Hi everyone,

I just called toyota to book my car in to get a few things done and asked them about a end of warranty check, they said they have a check that can be done for $99.

my factory warranty ends at the end of this month so if they find something they can fix it under warranty so i don't need to fork anything out of my pocket hopefully.

so i was wondering what you all thought of it and if i should go ahead geting my car checked out?

also i've lowered my car on king springs will this cause any issues if i perform the check?

are there any other things i should ask to be check or looked at while im there?

thanks in advance.

just to add the catch cans with the breather on top are illegal as it allows the vapours to excape.

those two from my knowledge are illegal because of the breather filter.

oh i'm not worried about the trd ss not getting here to me, don't get me wrong if you felt i was worried about it. just hoping it will come soon so i can get it in my stivo and see how it feels :)

i'm not sure just asking mario if that will be the case, i'm hoping not but yeah it may be the case and theres nothing we can do about it but wait and hope it may come sooner.

so for the second shippment we are looking at another 3 - 4 weeks from the 14th of sep?

i've heard bad things about them to be honest with you. i heard they are quite bad with customer service. and their products don't fit well i heard.

damn is that a 5% tint?, i sometimes find it hard to see through my 20% at night don't want to imagine out hard it is to see with 5%

Return it and get the other one, the light green can.

Because it also lubes, it leaves behind a film of lubricant. This film of lube easily allows particles to attach to it. The O-Ring just rolls off. Give it a few blast. Let it dry, its really quick as it rapidly evaporates.

Cheers

Im guessing you're talking about this one?

Or should i go to D1ck Smith and get this

CRC NF Contact Cleaner $19.95

CO Contact Cleaner Plastic Safe formula is a technically proven, stable, inert high purity cleaning solvent. It is non-corrosive, non-staining, and has a rapid-complete evaporation - contains no lubricants.

It is formulated to remove light contaminants, dust, lint, atmospheric⁄oils, finger prints, moisture from precision electrical⁄electronic equipment where lower-flashpoint solvents may be used. It leaves no residue to increase resistance. 350g can.

or

CRC Switch Cleaner Lubricant

A specially formulated lubricant that provides the single operation of both cleaning and lubricating sensitive switches and contacts.

The special solvents used can chemically dissolve and quickly clean away oils, grease, dust and atmosphere contaminants and then quickly evaporate to leave a thin film that will protect and lubricate the surface. 300g aerosol can.

just for your knowledge i used the first one don;t know how good it is compared to other brands, i only used it cause i had it laying around.. maybe go with what suprathai said ad gow ith the jaycar and save yourself some dosh.. in the end it's up to you. i have a friend that uses throttle body cleaner an that seems to do the trick also.

i'm not sure which contact cleaner everyone else has used but i used some that i had laying around from awhile back made by CRC, D*ck Smith also sells thier own brand that does not leave an residue.

I beleive you should be looking out for one that does not leave any residue or lubes as it cleans as it leaves a think film on the sensor which may cause issues.

no the steering wheels are different on the zze122 and the zze123, the airbag include the front face of the steering wheel (the horn area)

damn whats this world coming to.

i wonder if they are after the sportivo airbags or the other model airbags.

i agree nothing is goin to stop them but if they see a club lock that blocks the airbag that will make them think twice. but seriously these days ppl will steal anything.

i must admit also that i love hondas, i previously owned a 93 integra vtir and the build quality was so much better than my sportivo 03 inside and out. the engine was strong and never caused me any issues and i loved hitting vtec.

dont get me wrong in saying all that i still like my sportivo and love lift, just wish it was better built as it would be an even better car.

but i still think its a b18c7 in that pic, looking at the sportivo though i still appears that the engine is still in he car.

looks like a B18C7 from a dc2r.

no not the door, but the frame of your car, the door jam.

umm.. i believe you can buy one of those rubber strips that you hook to your chassis (the rubber strip you see hanging running on the road on the back of peoples car.

try groudning yourself before you get out of the car, while you still seated on the driver seat or any seat in the car, touch the frame of your car before getting out, that should ground you and you won't get a shock when you close the door.

i agree with SB, has anyone actually pulled out their foglight bulbs before?? i'm assuming not, so i'll let u all know that the bulbs are HB4's, in other words HIGH BEAM. therefore brighter than normal lights, therefore illegal.

but i still drive with mine on :P

thats isn't necessarily true about hb4s as my old 93 integra had hb4s as low beams and was stated to be the correct one in the manual.

count me in also...

sorry another question, is that 290 shipped to my door or will it be the same case as brisbane ppl.. oh and also when do u need the money?

sorry have to ask ths before i give a definate answer, how long will it take to get to aus/me and when do you need the money?

so at this stage we may have 16 interested people, how much would it be for 16? considering thats double the amount of people and the quote was 302 for 8 people.

i think this is the case for all corollas, never really bothered me though. I have seen some ppl paint it but ill live with it.
