  1. Hi all, Owned my Kluger since march 2008 and its been great. Only issue is I have noticed the startup rattle started happening in 2010/11. I'm pretty sure I reported it to Sydney City Toyota a few times but cannot recall. They do have comments about the rattle issue I mentioned only a few months after warranty expired. So they wont fix it under warrantly. Cost to fix is over 2300! What I hate about this is... 1. When I did mention it to SCT when the warranty had just expired they failed to inform me if it was looked at. I cant recall if I mentioned it previously but I'll ask SCT for all my service records. 2. This issue is very well known. Google VVTi rattle! 3. I never thought the cost to fix it would be so high or that the problem is that bad that it could cause some real damage to the motor. Wondering if any other Kluger owners have experienced the same issue. Did you get it fixed under warranty? If you got it done out of warrantly how much did you pay? Is it really worth fixing? Thanks Troy

  5. Hi Duc, Ill be getting my Kluger in the next fortnight, I already have the Bladerunner steps ready to go. Ill post some pics when I have them fitted to the vehicle. Cheers, Scott. great, Would love to see em. Has anyone else seen the foot steps on the toyota.com (usa website)? Wonder if we can get them imported? I like that as they don't come out too much.
  6. Has anyone installed those kinglsey sidesteps? I'm not fond of the Toyota ones.

    Kluger Price

    Guys I got mine for 60k with front & rear sensors, towbar pack, Roof bars and mats. Its fleet price of course :). Actually its 58k but that's due to some tax benefit I get with work. But the funny thing is I work for IAG ( aka NRMA ) and we get our fleet cars thru orix, asked Orix for a price and they came back with $63k via Syd City toyota, Not happy Jan so I sent a fax NRMA letterhead to 10 ( YES 10 ) Toyota Dealers requesting a fleet price. Most came back cheaper and chullora toyota came back with the best price, So I requested orix go thru chullora however Syd City Toyota matched the price. Just goes to show orix dont give a **** when it comes to pricing.
  8. Hi Troy, your vehicle is scheduled for Feb build, March delivery however Toyota factory are yet to confirm exact dates of production. Will keep you advised. Kind Regards, Blah Blah Fleet Sales grrr :( ho well

    New Kluger

    For those guys going fleet I got a huge discount. My fleet actually goes through orix, However I was not happy with the quote Orix game me. So I sent a one page fax letterhead with my company logo to 10 toyota dealerships, Got some great and not so great pricing back. I found I could get an extra 3000 off then what orix had quoted me! To put it simply got a grande awd with front/rear sensors, towpack, roof bars, floor mats, metalic paint for just over 61000 ( drive away ).
  10. Hey all.. New member hear joining the Toyota ranks :)... I've just placed an order on a Tidal Blue Grande with front/rear sensors, and tow pack. I'll be selling me beloved Subaru GT Liberty.. Will miss my Suby but due to the two kids taking up the back seat etc I need more ROOM! Anyway cant wait till it arrives and cant wait to start hacking into the Sat Nav screen :). In my Sub GT I installed a Car PC with touch screen, tv, gps etc but the WAF factor = 0 :/ Will be interested in the following hacks as some have already mentioned :) - DVD on the SatNav - Video Input on SatNav :) - IPOD Input - Divx for the Rear DVD Entertainment System :) ( Even if it means replacing the existing unit ) On a side note can any Tidal Blue email me some nice pics to troyee at gmail dot com? I need to drool over it until mine arrives :D
