A technical bulletin was issued to all dealers recently, with a repair method that doesn't require part replacement.

Thanks for that 450hptonne, do you know how long this repair process takes no considering there is no part replacement?

just got my steering shaft replacement under warranty at no cost. no more knocking sound

Straiv - how quick did you get it replaced? You posted

yesterday that you have the problem and fixed it today? I have dealer warranty from Jefferson Ford as Factory warranty expired 29th of July, if they diagnose a problem what's the chances of getting this fixed for free? Thanks

give em a call and find out.

Do u mean Toyota? I need to determine I have the issue prior to taking it to them I guess

Hi 450hptonne

What do you mean dealer can fix without replacing the part? Not sure if I have the same issue as I can't feel the knock but feels heavy and a bit hard when turning in my aurion presara.

Cheers

Will the extended three years warranty cover my change of shaft?

The dealers can now fix the noise without part replacement. In your situation, I would expect it can be fixed at no cost to you. But only the dealer will be able to tell you something you can be sure of.

Got my VVTi controllers replaced recently, service supervisor advised some ppl don't replace this as it has no affect to the car only the start up noise. Reason why some ppl don't like getting this replaced is due to the engine being removed for the VVTi's to be replaced.

The new revised parts are guaranteed not to have the start up noise, so far so good for me.

Thanks for the reassurance I will keep existing unit and purchase portable DVD player for my little man!

Cheers mate, I think that would be the best approach, little man is only fussy between real milk to formula !

Thanks again

Go to: Toyota Camry Headrest Monitor 7" Digital HD Screen

Thanks for that great website, any idea what cost is involved for the installation?

yeah I agree I won't worry about it too much, was interested in the DVD as I have a newborn and more less wanted it for entertainment for the little fella!

My just look to get a portable rather than changing the head unit.

Is it possible to get the LX570 head units into our cars? I mean is it a straight fit?

Can't be done. The only DVD reading slot in the head unit is designated for the map disc already.

The only way you can do it is to change the entire head unit.

Thanks for the quick response Harlo, not sure if it will be worthwhile changing to one of the ones on ebay? The sell between $500 to $600 with a few more options but not sure about the quality though.

Thanks again Harlo
