So HID fogs are illegal? How else can I get yellow lights?
ive got 8000k low beams, although I wish I got 5-6000k. Prob change it later.
Fingers crossed no prob with the cops yet. Does it carry a fine or just a warning to change it
-
Are yellow fog lights nice or ugly?
opinions?
thinking of installing 3000k HIDs

Hi Guys, thought it would be helpful if everyone can share the different stores/websites you buy your parts from.
this would help myself and others when they need parts. I'm new to owning a toyota so i have no idea where is good to buy parts.
Cheers

Thanks Trent,
Just another quick question...
When i floor the car it doesn't always get a big kick of power, sometimes just accelerates at a steady pace, car still speeds up just not with the power that it should...this is about 50/50 sometimes has power sometimes doesn't its weird...
is it the transmission not selecting proper gear or some engine issues, lifters etc..?
Anyone else experience this.

today I drove my accord euro after a few weeks of driving the aurion and I realised how much better it feels compared to aurion.
About the only thing the aurion has over the euro is more power but Handles like a trolley and boring interior.
im trying to find some cheap interior mods to make it a bit less boring on the inside.
any ideas ?

you guys think it will look good on a gold aurion?

i had mine done nearly 12 months ago and it is much better than version 1, no flareing. I still think they could improve its reaction time in sequential mode. just remember this is a learning ecu and it takes several hundred k's to learn your style of driving.
Is this done for free by Toyota?
even if out of warranty

I'm thinking hopefuly it's the inner cv joint/drive shaft. As it is leaking grease. That might also explain the clunk I hear at acceleration ...
is this plausible
-
No lights came up that was the first thing I looked for straight after that happened coz it scared the crap outa me thought the car was gona just die on the road, and not sure but I don't think I lost traction...

Hi guys
i was driving earlier and stopped at red light everything was ok then went to accelerate and this massive shudder happened like as if car kept getting stuck then go stuck then go quickly could hear the loud noise and the whole shook with it as well as steering wheel.
Lasted only about 3-4 seconds then disappeared and didn't happen again.
I'm scared... Is my transmission showing signs of its near death?!
:'(

Who told you that? My bottom oil cooler pipe burst in a dramatic fashion, and oh does it spew oil out at a fast rate. This was fixed free of charge, however they won't entertain the top vvti pipe that they have reported as leaking, even though this was part of a customer care exercise years ago. Has anyone paid to have the top vvti pipe changed for the full metal type, and if so how much did it cost?
It was western Toyota in villawood.
Are these pipes 100% certain to fail or were there just some bad batches ?

I got my Oil Cooler Hose replaced at Chatswood Toyota.Chatswood Toyota simply replaced the oil cooler hose without asking any questions. Argued with Ryde Toyota about the VVTI Oil Hose but to no avail.
Thanks I will give them a go
Did they replace the top or bottom? Or both?
would I be pushing it to ask to replace both?
-
Anyone had luck with any dealers in Sydney? The one I tried was western Toyota
-
Thanks, feel better now knowing its normal.
about the clunk getting pedders to check it out then try fix under warranty
as for vvti line trying to find a way to convince Toyota to replace it...
-
How do I get Toyota to replace the oil lines they keep telling me they won't replace unless it's actually leaking. I don't feel safe driving knowing it can burst any second...
-
My driving conditions didn't change... Maybe next tank I'll try 98 again see what happens.
which is the best 98 vpower or ultimate?
@Gdude does Toyota use mineral :o !? I feel ripped off paying $220 for a mineral service!
-
Something weird happened with me ...I was running 98 octane at first had average of 13-14/100km. Thought I'll switch to 91 and now reading goes from 8-10/100km!!!
I thought 98 octane has higher mileage?
anyone else experience this??
-
the recirculate mode worked! but is it normal for heat to come from the engine?
Do you experience the same.
just worried nothing is overheating or leaking. Temp gauge is on normal though and no warning lights.
-
Thanks for the reply.
i guess I should've done my research before buying. i thought Toyota was known for it's reliability
as for the dashboard issue they have ordered a new one for me for free.
1. It's open air I think
2. Toyota said a few things, drive shaft, ball joints and whole suspension (I think they blowing outtheir *****) Also going to get pedders opinion
3. I thought so as well but the guy kept saying it's not a recall but we fix for free if it fails

Hi guys
im new here
just bought a second hand 07 aurion sx6 147k on clock and worried about a few things
1. Slight Heat blows from vents when quick acceleration even though fan is switched off, once it fogged my windscreen slightly
2. Can hear and feel a clunk in steering wheel
3. Vvti oil line looks like slight leak but toyota said nothing wrong and wont replace until actually burst
does anyone have any advise or similar situation and can help and are there any other problems to look for before my warranty runs out
Transmission shudder?

Yeah it's mostly slugish when i floor it while still rolling, from a stop its usaully aggressive but sometimes if I slam the accelerator too quick (from a stop) my front tyres loose traction and the car shudders real bad for a couple seconds.
Does this happen to anyone else? should it be loosing traction so easily ?
