  1. How many days off were you? They would give a bit of leeway in case you can't make it there on time. When I get them to do my major services, I am sometimes 1000-2000 over the designated km, but it's still covered. The car was registered in September 2007 lol and i bought it in November 2008.
  2. oh noes i think i voided my warranty? i havent serviced my car after the 1 year mark. but was it at the dealers when the service was due... have to double check.
  3. congratulations from a very satisfied presara owner, remember to fill out the owners transfer form in the service manual and send it to toyota, helps a lot when getting vehicle serviced and for warranty purposes. only problem i`ve had is water leaking into the cabin through the drain tubes from sunroof, several presaras have had this problem . also push the toyota link button on roof console to sign up for toyota link : fantastic service. you get to put your car into sleep mode each night. what transfer form!? dang i better do mine... im on 14,600km atm in my 2007 pres hehe. first service coming up. if u log into toyotalink now its got the cost of renewal... $240 per annum or $20 a month. not bad for an roadside assistance + free emergency calls + vehicle status monitoring + vehicle tracking. i'll be paying by month... there is no benefit in paying upfront. what is this sleep mode???
  4. nice. look better than the stock ones by far. good buy
  5. hope these are available on the pres. coz my first service is coming up.
  6. why not get a FM tuner for the iphone since your plugging it in to charge anyways
  7. WOW great story! forgot to mention it was night time next time I'll install roo whistle things before I drive down
  8. heh i personally would use less bright LEDs on the number plates so no one ca see em. on me old car i even took out one of the rear globes :P u dont want it that easy to read - just in u need to run from cops or people with road rage. speaking of kangaroos i was on the way down to karri valley from perth on the weekend... got pings on the way down but did that stop me gunning it through the twisty roads... no... coming rounds a sweeping and blind left turn at about 100 i think this kangaroo jumps out of know where... as i was using all of the road (unmarked country road) there was room... so i instinctively swervedfrom the middle of the road to the left to avoid it and slammed it back to the middle in a split second. shocked the missus as she was the navigator telling me what turns were coming up... baby slept right thru the trip. was quite impressed with the handling of the presara... i thought it would be boaty but it was a good balance between comfort and performance - handled the corners well.
  9. no heated seats? lame! what else do we miss out on?
  10. Are you looking at the 3500SL that was advertised for $34990 on Saturday. Seems like a very good buy. Insurance you may find isn't much more. It's costing me $80 a year more for my 3500S than what I was paying for my 04 VY Berlina. woah thats cheap. but if u want better performance go a 2007 subaru liberty GT spec B no point downgrading from a presara to TRD :P
  11. don't be spoiling my fun! might do the led conversion tho
  12. Toyotalink called me today to tell me the battery was draining. found out someone left the interior light on - a guest. so saved me from getting a flat battery... which woulda saved me alot of pain calling RAC out jump starting the car and driving it for like an hour or so and wasting petrol - as i woulda have for my other car. when it expires i will seriously reconsider extending it. hope they can do monthly direct debits instead
  13. hmmm I think it's expensive coz they not only provide roadside assistance but vehicle tracking too. how much is vehicle tracking? we don't have it in perth the coolest thing would be if u lost your key and u can ring them to unlock the doors and start the car for u

  15. wonder if we can get someone to hack the system and get the "toyotalink" system to dial RAC instead :)
  16. heyhey have u considered a 2nd hand one year old or less zr6 or trd?
  17. i agree that there is not much to juice from an NA car with any amount of mods ie: <10% gain but disagree that toyota has juiced the max out of the engine - they would be tuning for fuel economy and ultra reliability so the engines dont ever break. what sort of gains do the rollas with camcons or aftermarket ecus get? the thing that complicates an aftermarket solution is the vvvvvvvvvti
  18. only thing close would be a camcon ie: vtec controller
  19. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/2008-Toyota-Aurion-...%3A1%7C294%3A50 buy that and do a camry front end conversion... thatd be cool and very unique
  20. :o Let's see your Aurions drift sidewayz liiike my full sick Commo! :P Welcome to the forum mate! Enjoy your ride. B) reverse donuts ftw lol
  21. its a thought atm. lower your car and having 30 series tyres pretty rough ride too AUR30N to me the pimp factor outweighs the comfort factor. i dont really thrash my aurion round corners anyway.
  22. all the airbag equipped cars ride pretty rough... but then again most of the coilover equipped cars have too. do it
  23. look forward to seeing the results. I will do this in the distant future.
