I found insurance for $800! OMG its actually cheaper than my kluger lol I am now investigating my other insurance options with this new company, no it aint youi! lol they came in at $1800!
-
It was a dealer but not a merc dealer, dont worry i called the dealer it was services in and it has a good history. Yeah i know, just 1 x 0-100 dash per week.... Yes excllent car 100k
-
ours was replaced, no USB:( But the volumn control is now further from the side which means i can actually turn the knob without issue! Bluetooth working fine and cd player working too lol

2006 Mercedes Gl500, 7spd auto 5.5L v8(285kw/530Nm) dual sunroof, centre and rear diff lock, ground clearance 306mm(when raised), 20 inch wheels, split electric fold 3rd row, 3 zone climate(same as kluger), auto tailgate(same as grande), rear side windows open(kluger doesnt) For the price of the new kluger grande AWD, i think this is great value. Was $170k new!
-
we have done it, we are trading it in!
-
Yeah, i know the smart choice is to keep the kluger But always wanted a V8 and having extra offroad ability would be fantastic(not that i would do serious offroading, plus it is much much more luxurious/ we had an overnight test drive, and drop it back from where we like back to city, 45km trip, kluger averaged 13.8L/100km and the v8 was 14.5L/100km! I was amased! It wasnt much more than the v6

Offered $35k trade in for kxs as shown in profile with towbar. Toyota only offered me $32k(and i bought it from them)

I am possibly looking to sell the good old kluger 2008 kxs to upgrade to a bigger (real) 4x4 with 7 seats too, sunroof, centre and rear diff locks, low range, adjustable air suspension which goes up to 300mm!, 50 way adjustment front seats, heated front and middle rows, V8 power. It is 2nd hand so no warranty except for the 3month stat warranty, whereas i have 2 years warranty left on the kluger. Should i?? Please help! im debating on whether to release it or ge the new one over 5 years for just $40 a forthnight more!

Tear in Cargo Mat - Toyota will not honour the warranty
Blackkluger replied to vegemite's topic in Kluger Club
We have the mat since new and havent had an issue. We are extra careful around where the seatbelt goes. They do stink and have found boxes to stick to the mat, so try not to drag items out... Might be selling the car so might have one uor sale in a couple of months... -
we had that done after a trip to tassie, plus we got 5 yr warranty...
-
I am 6 foot and have travelled in the rear, the hardst part is getting in and out, but not bad there as the 2nd row can move forward to provide a little extra knee space. We believe it is better than cx9 anyway. The size are the same, i would go awd rather than front only. If your wanting an 08 model alot will come out of lease soon. I know mine is:) Not sure whethr to release or sell and get new car...
-
you need probably at least 20k a year, better to have 25k to get the money back in time to then start saving. for 12k, i would suggest if you are not using premium start doing so. What fuel economy are you getting?
-
if we could supercharge it for 5k id be very interested, should be too much to do as its the same engine as the trd aurion whihc had about 245kw, that would certainly be appreciated with a full load in the kluger!
-
Its in the new KLUGER! i dont know if the updated cd player has it, but it looks nearly identical,
-
Apparently the new unit has an adjustment for the mic, which means hopefully the other party can hear us! Fingers crossed it has the usb port as well that would be fantastic like the newer models!
-
Has anyone had trouble with their 6 disc player in their 07 onwards kluger? i mentioned it to toyota and without even checking, they have ordered a new one... Seems like they are fully aware of this fault where it wont play cds properly(like its scratched and jumps constantly, also bluetooth is terrible, they said the new unit will be able to adjust the mic volume?? Anyone had it changed? Or know of other parts which have gone faulty and was replaced pronto?
-
This is a case of buyer beware, just like if you dont ask if there is 2 keys for the car, they can sell it with just one and charge you $500 for a 2nd! Everyone needs to check it out, even the correct rims etc, they definitely have changed the unit, probably the old owner had the gps unit and decided to keep it in thier new toyota? as they all seem to be the double din now.
-
mate, they are awesome! Hows the wear on the front tyres?
-
let us know if the front outside wheels still wear too fast when upgrading to the larger wheels!

What was the odo reading on ur new Kluger?
Blackkluger replied to John E Buoy's topic in Kluger Club
we had about 18km, factory in japan, over to port, off boat, from dealer to pre delivery etc. its fair...100 seems a little rich, less than 30 i'd say -
Been checking out the kxs, can anyone tell me the following, does the old side steps fit the new car? i have the 2008 model. ALSO anyone can tell me what fuel economy they get from the awd ones, as ours have averaged 13.8 since new and was wondering if they have improved this. And lastly anyone know if the old nudge bar fits the new car, the new one looks like an afterthought....does it even fit lights?? as mine do thanks for any feedback.
-
Where does it get the power from? 12v outlet or hardwired? i notice alot of cable sunder the seat?
-
Did they use a round tank or regular one? Where is your spare tyre? Im considering it next year...
