Bob jane and tyre power both said these are not recommended and they wear very quickly? They suggested the Michelin xm2+ or the toyo proxes c100? but have read bad reviews on those

They look like low profile tyres? Im not a huge fan of low profiles and the pothole city i live in wont bode well. Any other recommendations?

I need new tyres and the array of selections are doing my head in. ATM i have https://www.bobjane.com.au/a/215-60r16-tyres/bob-jane-all-rounder-1/bob-jane-all-rounder-plus-with-silica-215-60r16-95v/18694?variant_id=18694 However they have worn very quickly (30,000km) and they spin like **** on take off in the wet. I am after something better but not breaking the budget. Im prepared to spend a tiny bit more for a better product. Any recommendations? I have constantly seen the Michelin primacy and pilot sports recommended, are they really that good? and which one is better?

The spare key wasn't working either he tested both keys they were emitting signal, so i dont know what exactly caused them to stop sending signal to the car?

I had an experience today out of nowhere my key buttons stopped working. i got a new battery, nothing, took it back to mr minit, he comes out to the car, starts going through this process opening closing the door key in and out of the ignition i thought he was drunk, he got the thing working again and im like WTF, i asked him what he did, and he replied "i did the chicken dance" i laughed my ***** off so hard couldnt believe it

Worn pulleys makw a squeeling noise usually not a rattle. Could be the vvti death rattle known to affect the 2grfe. Big expensive cost pretty much and engine out job.

i rang toyota and they said it had been done on my car. I had a look for myself and can see the metal upgrade. Load off my mind. I am pretty sure the vvt oil line has been done as well. it looks metal however there is a bend hidden behind a panel you cant see

Nah. Stick with what your car needs.

How can i tell if my AURION has the rubber or metal cooler line? I cant see it properly even if a torch. Bulletin AHG56. If it hasnt been done on my vehicle how do i book to get it fixed for free? Will toyota come to the party?

The coolant level didnt drop over night so maybe its working itself out. The mechanic said it can happen after water pump change. So i will still keep an eye on it. No blown head gasket i did the test with the colored blue stuff

can i just add plain water or do i have to use the pink 50/50 mix? im not sure what brand they used but its always been pink

Well my Aurion was squealing like a pig so i take it down and of course idler, tensioner, water pump gone. So have them replaced and since the new water pump has gone in both mornings ive checked the coolant level and the reseviour is bone dry. I take it back and the guy says its normal. They pressure tested the system added more coolant but im still losing coolant overnight. He said not to be concerned but i should not be losing coolant like that

I bought my 2009 aurion 2nd hand at 140k from toyota. Had a full log book history. Ive had it for 2 years and so far this is what has been done.... Replaced spark plugs + oil change $700 New battery Leaking cv boot $150 Alternator stopped dead was charged $900 for the alternator new belt and labor Window washer pump went $140 The door open sensor is playing up getting that fixed tomorrow The transmission is slipping now There is a misfire throwing no codes so im guessing either coils or injectors There is also a squeel noise coming from the engine bay no doubt a pulley ot water pump on the way out New struts And not to mention its an absolute gas guzzler The list goes on

Yeah ive had nothing but endless issues with my aurion. Its been a bad experience. Never getting another toyota

I noticed today when turning the car on then turning it off i could hear a glugging sound coming from under the hood. The kind of sound water makes as uts going down the sink. It doesnt happen on long distance just very short trips. Coolant level is normal, no leaks, no overheating. Anyone know what it could be?
