  1. Hi, I had a friend of a friend mechanic that serviced my car. I need the front Shock Absorbers replaced on my 2008 Toyota Kluger GSU45R KX-S AWD. I intend to buy them on ebay from one of the major spare part dealers. Monroe or KYB are supposed to be good. Any other brands that are good? Another question, is it better to replace the read absorbers at the same time? How long would it take a qualified mechanic to change them?
  2. Hi, I had the bumper bar on my Kluger repainted. The bumper bar now has a gap on one side where the head lights are. Any suggestions what might be causing it?
  3. Hi, I have a kluger 2008 kx-s . I bought an aftermarket headunit (gps, am/fm radio, dvd). AM radio worked fine on my factory installed dvd/radio player. But in the aftermarket headunit, only fm works but no am. I have plugged in the correct radio cable into the headunit but still no am. Wife is not very happy....
  4. I installed an aftermarket nav/gps/reverse camera head unit. Bought it on ebay, did not realise that the factory reverse camera cable connection is not compatible with the head unit. My question is, do I have to replace the camera with an after market camera or is it enough use the old camera but change the cables ? The ebay shop I bought the unit from suggest these options: Any other options? http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=161282178819&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT&tfrom=152097031491&tpos=unknow&ttype=price&talgo=origal#ht_5680wt_1163 http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=161282180647&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT&tfrom=152097031491&tpos=unknow&ttype=price&talgo=origal#ht_5556wt_1163 http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=161282183305&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT&tfrom=152097031491&tpos=unknow&ttype=price&talgo=origal#ht_5955wt_1163 http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Bumper-Style-CCD-Night-Vision-Car-Rear-View-Reversing-Backup-Camera-Wide-170-/161282176542?tfrom=152097031491&tpos=unknow&ttype=price&talgo=origal
  5. The magnet was very strong, I attached it to metal part of the small screen, all hidden under the plastic cover.
  6. Hi, it has a magnetic backing. Just the location that is important. Not sure where to place it.
  7. Hi, I bought an aftermarket entertainment/gps/rev camera head unit for my 2008 Toyota Kluger KX-S . The unit comes with an external gps antenna. Where is the best spot to place the gps unit? I don't mind some delay when it comes to the speed of the GPS receiver to acquire satellite signals and navigation data. I appreciate all advice. Thanks
  8. Hi, are there any blindspot mirrors available for the Toyota Kluger (2008)?
  9. My apologies mate, it was pooring down with rain last night in Perth when I wrote this. We had 54mm of rain between 6pm and 10 pm. I did not want to go out and get drenched (to check my tyres). Was going to check my tyres today. Thanks for your understanding. I did not think for a minute that you were a psychic;--)
  10. I am after the original size that the car came with. Comfort is the best option for our needs.
  11. Hi, time to buy new tyres for my Kluger (2008) KX-S. What brand and type of tyres do you recommend? Also, what price can I expect to pay? Would like to get the tyres before the end of the fin year (4 tyres). Thanks
  12. Hi, thanks for all the replies. I will contact Toyota again.
  13. Hi, I bought a cargomat from a Toyota dealer which was included in the total purchase price for my Kluger. It is still under new car warranty. I have attached an image of the cargo mat which has a tear in it. Toyota says that the warranty does not apply in this case. They (Toyota) say that they are not convinced that this is a manufacturing fault of the mat but are in fact saying that this sort of thing can happen if an item has been dragged off the mat and the eyelet has had too much stress and split. I have not used the mat to transport heavy things. Comments and suggestions are highly appreciated.
  14. Hi, had my kluger for 2 years in April. Thinking about extended warranty. Comments appreciated - is it worth it? What is the best (lowest) price that you have paid for extended warranty for your kluger? Thanks
  15. Thanks for the replies. I could have waited but...... Thanks guys.
  16. Hi, a silly question ;--) I have a flat tyre and RAC is changing it at the moment. Is the Kluger KX-S spare tyre a 'complete' tyre or is it a 'take you to the nearest workshop' tyre (space saving tyre)?
  17. Hi, I had to 'reformat' my pda and lost the password for pairing my pda to the kluger kx-s bluetooth. Cannot remember the password, can I reset the password in any way?
  18. Thanks for the replies. Our first baby, so there are a lot of questions:D
  19. Same here. Kluger KX-S AWD 2008 model. No noise at all when travelling more than 220 km/hour! Is that normal? :D
  20. :) Hi, In relation to car seats for a baby, where is the safest place to put it? Can the Kluger take any type of car seats? Have a fantastic day.
  21. I am finally in the possession of my AWD Kluger kx-s 2008 model. It is a great car. Smooth to drive. I decided to buy the parking and clearance sensors. It is a big car and they come in handy every day. I am very happy with the guys at Kalamunda Toyota. The sales person that sold me the car was even helpful after I signed on the dotted line
