Hi Peter, We had exactly this fault on our Grand AWD at 400km (almost brand new). We took it back to the dealer (twice) and they found after an hour that a vacuum hose was "incorrectly fitted" in the engine bay (a leak basically). The problem on the Toyota T2 diagnostic hand-held machine also showed an exhaust o2 (oxygen) sensor problem - caused by the vacuum hose affecting the fuel/air mix - nothing to do with the exhaust at all. Take your Kluger straight in and ask your service guys to phone the service guy Mark at Toyota in Frankston and ask his team what they found on ours. It could save them a lot of time an get you happy again. Glad to be of help. LC.

Hi holmesie, We're picking up our new Kluger Grande (Silver with beige interior) next week and want to get the windows tinted. What percentage film did you use on the front side windows and on the already coloured rear side windows? Like you we would like them to look consistent along the side of the vehicle but making sure they are legal and safe. Does anyone have any recommendations on who to go to in the Melbourne/Mornington Peninsula area to have the film fitted? Cheers LC & MS

Hi, we live very near to Frankston! Could you PM me the name of the sales person. Cheers LC & MS

Hi We live in the Melbourne area...which dealership did you go for that deal? Cheers LC & MS

We've just signed up for a new Kluger Grande AWD - silver with sand beige interior. Not sure if we've got a deal or not so wanted to know your opinion. Bottom line $68,000 on the road with these extras: Mudflaps (the larger ones) Cargo Mat Tow bar & electrics Aero roof rails Sidesteps Front parking sensors Rear parking sensors Bonnet protector Headlight protectors Mats We were also 'offered' the Fifth Dimension protection package at a whopping $2800 (not sure if that included window tint on front side windows). Has anyone signed up for this and if so what do you think? Because of the high pressure selling on this additional service (and we'd been there for 3 hours) we'd started to lose the will to live and our concentration was nil. We haven't signed up for this as yet. Any thoughts?
