  1. Me thinks the GPS is it V14 has it
  2. Upgraded V13 to V14 on the weekend I think we gained a compass and some other minor stuff IT WORKS All I can say is google is your friend at this point in time
  3. Count me in Taka, $395 is an absolute joke.You can buy a good portable unit for that much. SO can you copy these then?
  4. Portable aftermarket GPS is great until some one steals it had several Garmin and TomTom, I agree the std Toyota one is very average/ simple but has got a great screen and it does work.
  5. All I can say I have had all my cars tinted and any one who tints the drivers and front passengers Windows full on black to match the rear or more are DHs Its very dangerous and may catch you out in the long run just think of the pedestrian you run down who can't see your face behind your dark shades its not poker your playing with here its peoples lifes......Something to think about, It happened to me last week and I was on foot and a car was entering a drive way at speed I could not see the drivers face or any thing for that mater you we didn't know if the prick was going to stop. We all like a bit of privacy M_M sometimes its good to see your face don't you think? why do you think its illegal ? Do you wear your sun glasses when you get your photo for your license or equivalent? Because you have got to be able to see the driver of an Vehicle Thats enough from me cya
  6. Thank you all for your comments and thoughts, it helped a lot. I agree the bull bar is somewhat heavy and chunky looking and in the end, I have decided in favour of the Toyota nudge bar. Hopefully will not regret my decision. You made the correct decision Leeder, you want your new Kluger to stand out for the right reasons, I do some country driving as well and have hit roos in the two last cars they like jumping into the side of my rides, may be they dont want to walk or hope any more. I did not like the nudge bar at first (it came on the car as a demo) but now the others look strange with the standard broad face bumper look with out.
  7. Would not like to pay for this its oviously a yanky over kill! For carring a big V8 mussle car not a nimble RX8 .....LOL Bigger isnt always better
  8. Id say yes see left picture on the beach use the snow function to stop the engine from racing leave it in first and take it easy, took mine off road at easter time and it was great the Down hill decent was used for the first time for 15 minutes of steep gravel down hills with the trailer on
  9. Sorry its not about the tow car its what its towing ....Very Nice Very jealous!
  10. Chullora Nobel Toyota, I already weakened them for you! good work good Colour I bought the Dealer Principles car there! Is yours AWD? If it is thats a Mad Buy! We have Been driving our Blue one since October last year ...Happy waiting your a definite number for some one! Yes it is an AWD ,mine is the Glacier Blue not the Tidal Blue :P . My neighbour just picked up a new Aurion and the bugger got a cyan blue one :( and I couldn't bare having two cars the same colour sitting one meter away from each other in the driveways so I changed mine to the lighter colour. I must be dreamin... I tried a large local Brissie dealer, who insisted these prices couldn't be true, and tried not to use the L word, saying that $60k was below cost and so they quoted $65157 for Crystal Grande AWD with 2008 plate, f/r park sensors, towbar, mats, roof cross rails. I spoke to a private fleet buyer, who came back with a price higher than the first quote I got from the dealer as a Saturday walking, and wanted $175 for the deal. They bailed when I set a target of $60K, pretty much saying you're on your own. So I then rang Noble Toyota in Chullora and they said they'd get back to me with a price, but went home instead. Who did you speak to at Noble Toyota? I spoke to Steve, the Sales Manager, New Cars and this deal didn't seem to ring any bells... Never thought it would be this hard to spend $60K, perhaps I'll keep the Discovery... We dealt with Sam but unfortunately Steve makes the final decision. Good luck they will say its a 70+k car!
  11. That was the first mod to the XT, the rear heavy duty sway bar from Whiteline, nearly every one does it on the the Forester's as a first mod its recommended.
  12. Finally added the Pictures I took one month or more ago First Picture One HID in, the second All HID's in, What a difference!
  13. Wow thats a lot of k's already.... Anyway where do we start we've only done around 7000ks, but no real problems. Its an AWD grande. 1. I don't like the handbrake or foot brake, but the XYL loves it. 2. We've got a rattle that occasionally comes up in the dash. 3. Would have liked more storage in the back when all 3 rows of seats are up. 4. Would have liked a split 3rd row seat. 5. The navigation sat/nav cant be customized enough and cant be programmed when car is moving. 6. I think the sound system is pretty poor both in sound quality and control. 7. No memory in seats. 8. Need more road feel through the steering wheel, its too insulated from the bumps on the road. 9. ABS is way too noisy and too much feedback to the pedal. ( for me anyway) 10. Would have liked a solid cargo cover instead of a blind, but then where would you store it. 11. Too many cup holders, especially the two in the centre console, I would have liked cleaner lines on that centre console. 12. No speed warning/ speedo is out/ and odometer resolution should be better. 13. Headlights don't seem concentrated enough, especially high beam on dark freeways. 14. I think the paint needs more coats, its seems a bit thin after the inside wheel arch was scratched when the kids dragged their school bag over it. 15. I have a suspicion the plastics may also be easy to scratch after our centre console shows rub marks from a tissue box sitting there. Theres a few there and I'm sure ill think of more, but in the overall scheme they're mostly minor own preference type of issues. You bought the wrong car mate! Now do the big positives We have the same car and love it, nothings perfect
  14. They printed as 100kmh... so you are saying that they are doing close to 200kmh? Can Kluger even gets to 200kmh? It would do 200 if pushed...140 it does not even break a sweet, not sure on the gearring...need the 6th speed for this test!

    New Kluger

    CONGRATS HAVE FUN WITH THE NEW TOY
  16. Thanks it was a top spot we stopped at on the cost road from Foster, Elizabeth Beach felt like we were in Hawaii

    New Kluger

    Congrats, DVD does not read DivX
  18. Good luck with your final choice, I currently own both cars both the high spec models both great cars I would buy both again, prefer to drive the Subaru because it would out perform the Kluger any day any location on the Bitumen. Off road capabilities would be a different story. I recommend you take one for a very spirited test drive to see if you are totally happy! If your happy offer them $35k with all the extras you want they can only say no dont let them Give you the price tell them the cars already depreciating like a rocket and the warranty and car is 8000kms old now! Good luck hope it helps, remember to ask them for a full tank of fuel before you sign your life away.... :)
  19. Yep saw all the Diagnostic screens every one is talking about, we need more info on, I tried Toyota again today with out any luck...still trying time will tell

Thats funny, I would have got the Tidal blue any way
  21. HID's would look like this 5000k for Low/High beams and 6000k for the small spots. Game over!
