  1. you can do what now??? where how and when do i go about getting this? my local dealers knew nothing, emailed toyota and then told me no chance, everything is intranet for them..... Just go into your local dealer and ask them! It is available as a spare part. If worst comes to worst, tell them to get the CD Part Number off the disc that their in-house workshop uses.
  2. You can buy a CD Repair Manual for the ZRE152 Corolla. Some of the features in the CD you won't be able to access, unless you are connected to Toyota Intranet, like all the dealers are, but you should be able to access most of the information that you need. From memory it is less than $100, but you would need to check to make sure.
  3. did you recieve my pm. Indeed I did. And I shot one back! Or at least I think I did!
  4. I can, but my merchandise orders from the supplier have to be over $100 wholesale.
  5. Hi Mick, I just signed up as a new member and am still finding my way around. I'm getting my new Presara tomorrow (can't wait) and I have a question about the built-in Bluetooth system. Thus far, my dealer hasn't been able to give me a satisfying answer. The Presara brochure says that "Bluetooth will only operate with telephone enabled with compatible Bluetooth wireless technology (HFP [Hands Free Profile] version 1.0 and OPP [Object Push Profile] version 1.1 international standards)." I don't want to buy a phone that is not compatible, but it seems that all mobile phones currently on the market are "compliant with Bluetooth Specification 2.0 supporting the following profiles: . . . Object Push, Handsfree, . . . " (quote from the phone connectivity specs). Is the Bluetooth system in the Presara old technology or is it compatible with any Bluetooth mobile phone that supports Handsfree and Object Push??? Hope you can help. Cheers noble Noble. I was going to say something very similar to what Yoshi has just said. I don't think it should be a problem to connect up to the unit.
  6. Theoretically every dealer can access TRD parts. We all use the same ordering system. Not many dealerships out there have the TRD parts catalogues, which can be very hard to get a hold of, expensive and usually written completely in Japanese! And I guess also to, that a lot of dealerships, when it comes to"go-fast" or modified bits, probably don't have a real interest in them and therefore might say they cannot access the parts just to get out of. The only website I can think of that may have the TRD part numbers you are looking for is http://trdparts/jp/english/ . This is the Japanese site obviously but a lot of the part numbers are the same to the Australian spec vehicles. I have just punched in a few part numbers and they do work in my system. Hope this helps!
  7. Indeed this is true. But in someway, it is just the same as taking your "ordinary" Toyota or TRD Toyota, or any other manufacturer for that matter to a dealer for service or your local mechanic. Anyone with a set of spanners and a little bit of know how can do a service. It is a personal preference who you want to work on your car. I feel the same as yourself. If I owned a TRD vehicle I would want a TRD Mechanic on it, just for the piece of mind that if anything went wrong you do have a leg to stand on. Any dealer can access the TRD tools, but they may not neccessarily have the people trained to use them correctly.
  8. Thanks for the questions guys. Just to answer a few: Unfortunately I don't work for a registered TRD Dealership. In saying this however, TRD Dealerships are the only ones that are able to sell the cars, but any dealer can handle the service and the parts for the TRD vehicles, as to my understanding. At this stage there are 6 Melbourne TRD dealers and I don't think there will be any others, just for the immediate future anyway. I am lead to believe (the TRD program is still yet to be fully rolled out) that dealers will only have access to Australian delivery TRD parts catalogues, i.e Aurion, Hilux, Rav4 and Yaris. I can however get prices for TRD Japan parts, but need to have the part numbers to do so.
  9. I look forward to hearing them. With any luck I will be able to help out!
  10. Hi all! I haven't been on this site for a while. And haven't posted in even longer! Just to let you know that I am now working in a major metro dealership in Melbourne, as opposed to working in one in rural Queensland. A bit of a difference let me tell you! Anyway, just a quick note that if anyone needs or wants some help or a question answered, (parts and accessories are the specialty!) I will try my best to help out where I can. Look forward to hearing from some of you. Cheers Mick
  11. I guess it depends how big your caravan. If it getting up over the 2 tonne mark may be an idea to put anther one on, just to be on the safe side. Gearboxes arn't cheap when they break!
  12. If your still looking for some, I can get some brand new ones for you. They would be $264 each
  13. Just got a memo come across my desk..... " All Corolla Sportivo models will cease production from 31 October 2005." "There will be no immediate replacement for Corolla Sportivo in the foreseeable future"
  14. Hi there, Prob the best thing for you to do is to go out and buy Version 10, this is latest update and will show most country towns nowdays. Costs about $300 from your local Toyota dealer. The Versions are just the updates ie Vers 10 has more stuff that Vers 3
  15. Just looked up the part numbers on my computer. It lists 90915-YZZE2 for the Sportivo and 90915-YZZE1 for the standard Corolla. Preety sure the reason is something to do with the oil pressure, overheard one of the techs saying something about it the other day.
