Hey guys,
Was having a look under the bonnet when I noticed that I'm missing a hose off of what I believe to be part of the air intake. I have had a look through the workshop manuals but can't seem to find where it should be connected to, and their doesn't seem to be a hose dangling down anywhere.
Is anyone able to advise where/what this should be hooked up to?
Pictures attached.

Hi Folks, just chasing a little advice.
I've had problems in the past with kicking out the plug which runs into my servo. Usually this means I'll only be able to get Arctic air until I plug it back in. Eventually I broke a pin off and had to do some fiddling around with it to fix it up.
However it appears that I was a little careless while trying to pull the servo motor out to work on it and have done something to the gears. When I start the car I just hear the aircon making a knocking sound, as if the gears which the servo connects to are misaligned.
Any advice for fixing this up or removing the servo motor to get better access?

AGE: 22
SEX: Male
STATUS: Single when I bought it, currently taken.
REASONS FOR BUYING: At the time I was looking for something fast, and stylish. I'd previously driven a Falcon and had bad experiences with it. My experience with my Hilux taught me that Toyota's are damn near indestructible. Test drove a Touring before finally settling on an SX6. Have never looked back due to the surprisingly good fuel economy and comfort of the car.
I've had a few problems here and there but over all its been a great car. Even made it through a few fender benders without too much damage.

The AUX jack in this guide was put in as part of the mod I believe. You can also do what some of us have done and trail a cord out the side of the trim as well.
I'm thinking of putting in the work to change mine over to a jack though. Means I can use a longer or shorter cable if required etc.

Thanks for the guide, worked great for me.
I was able to put together the wiring for it install it. Sounds great and saved me using a grainy FM transmitter.

Thanks for all of your replies guys.
It's definitely given me a few options and I appreciate the advice :)

I'm in Central Queensland, but it could be worth looking into getting him to take a look when I'm down Brisbane way next.
Might take a look around the local wreckers as well. Haven't been there since back when I had a Falcon.

Yeah it's pretty dusty.
I was careful when I pulled the head unit out, but I wasn't careful of the metal frame underneath when I was checking out the plugs on the back.
Carelessness on my part really.

Hi Folks,
I've got a 2008 Aurion SX6 and I accidentally caused a little damage to the dash while working on the head unit.
Toyota have quoted me $730 for a new panel to replace it, however I'm wondering if anyone knows of a way to repair it.
Another alternative would be to buy a non genuine part I guess. If anyone has any suggestions of a good dealer?
