have installed the LED lights and wired them up to come on when the ignition is switched to the on position and switch off at acc. also put an inline kill switch as well.
-
Anybody know where the fuse/relay for the sportivo dash display is ive looked at fuse locations ( under glove box) etc but cant find it.My plan is to wire the lights to that circit, so they only come on when starting the car.
-
Im thinking spark plugs as mine is well overdue for my 3rd set and on first turnover takes quite a few turns to start,sometimes it wont start first time but release and wind again it fires straight away.
-
how much were those ?
-
I guess u get what u pay for, but they better than nothing.
-
got these off ebay, thought i was getting one pair, but got 2 pair for $14.58 bargain. going to fit them in the bottom grill.

must get onto co-op next week to get my diagnosis so I can take it home.
-
Lets hope so. what was the diagnosis on your box?
-
even with my new transmission I find that it "HUNTS" between 5th and 6th at around the 80km/h mark, it does worry me that when it goes into 6th its a very sluggish change.
-
that does seem awfull cheap for those, I would run genuine pads though, i tried aftermarket pads with dissapointing results.
-
looked up the U660E trans on the net there is a very interesting site which describes the "GUTS" of the thing. too many bits that can go wrong. BTW working this evening got the "CHECK VSC" bells and whistles again,cant be the intake as I have replaced the airbox back in, hope its nothing to do with the new box
-
That made for some interesting reading, will do some more research on other forums too. still waiting for results of trans failure.
-
Wish all the best mate. Hopefully the new transmission pulls through and lives on much longer then the car itself :) Thanks I hope so too ! no way I want to pay another 10k for another one in the life of the car (taxi life finishes may 2015) I might try to find someone to rebuild the old one if its not too damaged. the dealer quoted 7k for a rebuild.

Not having any fun anymore driving like a nanna nowdays, haven't pushed it since i had it back, nearly put a couple thou on the clock :(
-
will do, Im still scratching my head, why would the gearbox operate normally after resetting the ECU, half hour disconnected from the battery then get an hour's normal driving before it stuffed up again. I still think it was something to do with the computer, maybe someone with more knowlege can enlighten us.
-
That is a nasty scrape, broken clips too, might be cheaper for new bumper, best get a quote on both.
-
nice to be back on the road, but unfortunately its scared me so much, Ive unmodded the car ( airbox back in ,stock mufflers back on. :(
-
they are going to do a post mortem on it and report it to me, i will post results when they come to hand. then i will take it home to rest under the deck. lol
-
finally got my car back 4.30 yesterday,$9999.55 why not make it 10k ! anyway it feels different,maybe the old one was dying well before, I find myself driving like a nanna, too scared something might break again. BTW N3ptuNe no car is bullet proof ! I also thought this after my camry, but i have found out the expensive way that even toyota's will break. i

nice lights couldn't help myself got some on the way, why you selling?

Polarised or Non-Polarised Sunglasses?
SCOOTA44 replied to douface's topic in Aurion / TRD Aurion Club
cant watch the tv or see the gps properly with polarised glasses. -
Wednesday day 4 of the drama, still waiting for the call, or can something else go wrong? just want my cab back, get back to work.
-
fortunately they are not charging extra, I guess they will charge it to toyota australia, maybe DJKOR ans Steve are on to something,anyway will wait for the post mortem. and yes the engine has to come out too, unlike the previous camry so much more labour intensive.
-
They need to, but not holding my breath,but only wondering , could i have more time off. :-(
-
why bloody not, still need manual though.
