  1. Yes so much knowledge has come our way from Tony, every time i do anything involving cleaning our Presara I think "Now What Would Tony Do" LOL

    She looks a beast Ash, I am sure the yard will be an easy job now with that much power, and are they cup holders on the piece between the handles?

    If so then at least a 2 can mow job it seems LOL

  2. Tony as always your the Jedi Master of Detail, thanks heaps for all the detailed pictures, she looks stunning and dare I say better than the day she rolled of our production lines. You deserve a huge round of applause for your love of these beautiful cars and if we could give out awards on here you get the GOLD mate

    Thanks a lot as always it is appreciated

  3. I have had these Primacy 4's for about 2 years now and they still feel new especially in the wet, don't do many Klms these days, but every now and then She Who Must Be Obeyed and I do a scenic drive along the Central Coast just to enjoy the beauty and time away from the 4 walls.

    I also would be interested in the Pilot Series so when any of you open up the wallets let me know your thoughts on them for next time I replace these. However by then they will probably be RE009's LOL

  4. Sounds like you needed that extra couple of days mate, there is always a list at my place but all are small jobs fortunately. Managed today to get the pressure washer out and gave our beauty a nice foam wash, also spent a long time on the wheels and gave them a good soaking of brake remover and a good scrub came up like a dream. She Who Must Be Obeyed gave the leather a nice wipe over as I only gave them a nice treatment about 2 weeks ago so she was able to sit and just clean vents and areas that catch dust and dirt a good clean out. As she is very craft orientated she came up with some nice cork shapes to fit in the cup holders fitted perfectly and replaced the old ones that had started looking sad.

    Anyway the beauty is back to sparking look crystal clean and ready for a day out to have a meal and the movies to use the vouchers NSW Gov gave out now just need to find something decent to enjoy

  5. Had a fairly quiet ANZAC weekend, caught up with family on Saturday for a duel birthday get together for a niece and sister in-law, did get to go to the local out door ANZAC service on Sunday which was well attended, we didn't get the extra Monday off in NSW so a quiet but lovely change. I managed to find some new drivers floor mat holders as I noticed one had come loose and wouldn't lock back into the floor pan to hold the mat and got them for about 8 dollars cheaper than Toyota wanted, so got those fitted, gave the car a good vacuum out and that was it.

  6. Hello again Sri, as in all things to do with cars it comes down to personal choice. We all have different tastes and different wants, the unit's do look good and as you posted they say it is plug and play and if that is the case anyone with some level of care and common sense can fit it. Personally for the cost there are many units around that price available at any good quality car audio places. with the cost of fitting also around the the same price. Have you made any decision?. If you do go with them my questions to them would include, do the units come with a facia panel to neatly fit the new unit? how up to date are the GPS maps? do they have free updates with the units? (as some do allow 1 or 2 free update available) talk about warranties on the unit and on their fitting if you get them to do the install.

    Keep us updated mate and good luck

  7. I love it when Tony has a rant 🤣🤣 but in this case I agree, it isn't that tough to remove the cover to do any work and safely replace it, I fortunately have a great mechanic who knows how much we love and treat our car and does the same when in his capable hands.

    Yes a great improvisation of the nulon bottle, a handy trick I will remember for next oil drop which is due in about 1 months time.

    Keep Well

  8. WOW that is damn freaky Ash, you would think an intermittent fault would be either up or down, have never had an issue with window switches in our Presara besides the mandatory recall for the master switch grease thing. Hope it now stays resolved and TY for the video it is handy just in case.

    Keep us up to date if it reoccurs.

    Keep Safe Mate

  9. I am of the opinion that I would not even think about it because of the cost involved let alone the hassle with speedo and wiring, I am pretty sure you will find most of the upgraded wiring required for the extra gadgets will not even be behind the dash and therefore would need installing..so massive money output 

    Like has ben said, I would live with what I have for now and save up for an upgraded model, at least that way you get what you want plus have a newer model to enjoy

  10. Hey Mike, yes same as Ash, I used the turtle wax headlight cleaner with excellent results, I made sure to tape off all surrounding areas to avoid any splash off and after applying by a cloth a nice film of the product I used my polisher to bring it up close to perfect and finished with a nice quality cloth for the final buff. Since doing them both about 8 months ago they still are crystal clean. I have got to say there are many different products at a bigger price but I will stick with what I know works.

    Good Luck mate just take your time and I am sure you will get a good result, let us see a before and after as it will aid others with similar issues

  11. Happy Safe Easter all, Well Ash and Tony I also did some home maintenance stuff, just put up a sail over the BBQ area, and got the pump flowing in the pond on Friday, today was a taking the time giving the leather in the Presara a nice slow clean and treatment, took all of 1 bottle of a nice white chardonnay to do it as it was really enjoyable. tomorrow is like a few of you a family belated Christmas/ Easter get together at a brothers house, looking forward to it as no contact for over a year so will be great to see all in one place.

    Have a safe time all and enjoy we all have earned it big time.

    Hugs from myself and my Lady to all

  12. Thanks for the update Miks, glad it has now finally been sorted out but what a hassle, As tony said SCA have a legal obligation to cover your costs, but as you have said they at least must be acknowledging that fact by supplying you a loan vehicle and working with you to recover the costs involved. I have never heard of that issue in any Aurion but like anything there is always one. Now it is fixed I hope your back to normal driving joy

  13. Good photo's for the unit Garth, personally I would be scouting online for your closest Audio specialists, find a unit that does all you are after and then the connecting harness for existing wiring and the facia surround so it all sits nicely in your RAV, there are a lot available and once you find the one you like then asking tons of questions to do with install. Unless your really capable of installing it all yourself I would go with the pro's. Last thing you need is to have a short or incorrect wiring as it is so damn annoying to track wires. Let us know your outcome
