  4. Yeah the services were done on time up until it was traded (around october last year) I don't want to run thicker oil to mask it I would rather fix it for the piece of mind.
  5. Its not just lifter noise ill try to record it its pretty loud
  6. Had the car serviced last week. I worked out roughly the car hadn't been serviced for at least 6 months.... I had noticed a noise from the engine kind of like a wet rattle. Mechanic said it could be a lifter or the vvtl-i component, he said its only when the oil pressure is low. He said it might quieten down after a week or so of the good oil going through well it hasnt. Performance hasn't been affected hit lift 1st popped 2nd and it spun in the dry on near new 205 turanzas for at least 10-15m so its performing Has anyone had this issue?
  7. Hey, Just noticed my rolla has no rear mud flaps. Can i get any 02-06 models mudflaps or are they specific to the stivo?
  8. Hi, Does anyone have the part number for the TRD Panel Air Filter for the 2ZZGE
  9. I've moved to a new company and now require a new phone to work with the online system we have. Up for swaps/sale is my 3 month old Blackberry Bold 9000 Would like to swap for one of the following: -iPhone 3GS -Nokia N97 -Nokia N97 Mini Or Buy it for $450 Comes in the box with all the accessories just like you would pick it up from the shops. Has facebook and msn messenger applications, great phone gets reception anywhere only getting rid of it as stated above.
  10. Dont quote me on it but the 2zz is a timing chain not a timing belt? If so i had a similar issue with my old car was a chain tensioner that was worn.
  11. I have the same issue if i hit a bump over 4500rpm just spins straight to 8k Im running Bridgestone turanza 205s
  12. Heres mine from Sydney City Good afternoon Jamie; The parts you’re looking at, The key with buttons: Key $371.25 Coding $79.20 Key cut $30 Total: $480.45
  13. Just had it checked. Mechanic said 90% sure its the front bearing. Just rang a couple of places. One place straight out said change the compressor and its going to be $800-1400 Another place said if its only the front bearing it'l be $165 if its the compressor between $380 and $700. Does this sound about right? Anyone know of any decent places in the strathfield or botany area?
  14. Doesn't matter what's quicker, I couldn't drive with a big ugly ford badge on my steering wheel everyday.
  15. I should prob add the aircon is very very cold still and seems to function fine apart from the noise.
  16. Thanks, I had a rattle on my old bmw which was making a noise it was the throw bearing but i've ruled that out. Yes the rattle is only when the compressor is on (with the fan only it doesnt do it) it doesnt do it all the time so it looks like it could be the oil. I've had the car 3 weeks and an old guy owned it before me so im assuming never.
  17. Hi, I had the aircon going most of the weekend i've noticed that sometimes something in the engine bay is rattling. It isn't happening all the time and is doing it with both the clutch in and out, as soon as the aircon goes off the noise goes, turn it back on sometimes its back sometimes its not it will randomly come and go. Anyone had this issue? Its really annoying me and I want to fix it ASAP. Cheers
  18. After seeing this im keeping mine in sight at all times, think its time to turn the shock sensor up on the alarm
  19. Thanks for the help guys. Ended up ordering them from Sydney City Toyota $10 =D
  20. Hi Guys, My VVTL-i stickers on the front guards are looking like crap, I cant seem to find any replacments. Somone on here was making them at one stage & i've pm'd but had no response. eBay seem to have none. Anyone know where I can get some from?
  21. Thanks for the help and advice guys. Took it to a brake place this morning thankfully they were opened. Turned out the backing plate had come loose and was touching the back of the dics. $35 fix and a big big smile on my face im loving the sportivo!!
  22. Heres a pic another thing it doesnt smell, i would think the brakes would stink after driving for 10-15mins with that
  23. jsut picked up my sportivo the rear brakes are rubbing on the disc anyone know how to fix it? the handbrakes really tight
  24. Buy a bottle of octane booser, if theres not alot of fuel in there boost it up to about the 100 mark, itl help to flush the injectors and fuel lines
