  1. Thanks for the advice, much appreciated. Fortunately I have been changing the oil regularly so that will help especially with the low k's. I don't do it myself, I go to Oil change express. They seem pretty good and use the factory recommended oil.

    Cheers TJ

  2. Hi All

     

    My Aurion Prodigy 2008 sometimes has a slight rattle on start up. It was doing it quite regularly until the oil pipe leaked and was replaced ( apparently a recall I wasn't aware of) It's been running fine, however, I notice occasionally it will rattle on start up. I love this car, I've done 195000 since buying it with 36000 on the clock and have no intentions of changing it anytime soon.  I only travel 5000 per year. Just want to make sure I'm across any issues. My question, is this something I should be concerned about? I service it  regularly and use recommended oil.

  3. Hi All.

    I'm looking for some help in sorting out a puzzling knock sensor issue. I've owned this since brand new and it's been a great car. We've only driven 190K in the time and it's been reliable. Just out of warranty the knock sensor failed. Toyota replaced it under warranty which was very good of them. Recently the engine light has come on again and it's the knock sensor again. You can tell as the car retards when the light comes on. My mechanic replaced it and the problem is still there. The light still comes on after a while and the engine retards. We also replaced the computer and after a day the problem has re-appeared. I'm looking for other ideas on what the problem may be. With the compauter and knock sensor both replaced, I'm at a loss.

    Any advice wou;ld be very much appreciated.

    Thanks

    TJ
