  1. I should fit in terms of the spline, but you may need to modify the airbag mount, clock spring and wiring.
  2. Doesn't look too bad for a car that is 9 years old. Pull the bumpers off and see if you can do something with the mounts if it is troubling you.
  3. There are a few guys here with them as well.
  4. There is very little chatter about the Power FC at all these days.
  5. $14000? New? Which engine is it? It would be cheaper to pull it down and rebuild providing it hasn't been a critical failure. You should be able to source one much cheaper from a 4x4 wreckers.
  6. Has the car had any repairs conducted?
  7. Yes. Total weight towed is 500kg.
  8. Most just use an AC Delco or GM supercharger oil. Engine oil is not suitable.
  9. The supercharger has its own oil reservoir internally built into it, so it will need to be serviced seperately. Its service intervals will be less than the engine, but I am not sure on the exact timeframes required. If it were my car, I would personally look to change it every 50,000KM, but you could possibly let it go longer depending on your driving style.
  10. Superchargers do add to the noise. Centrifugal superchargers are even louder again than the roots type fitted to the TRD. They are notorious for a chattering type sound. It is more than likely the backlash between the gears on each lobe that you are hearing. If it is very loud, it may be a coupler issue.
  11. I replaced one at just over 100,000KM on our Aurion. It was over $400 for a non-genuine unit, I forget the exact price. The radiator and fans need to be removed in order to get it out as well, so factor is some coolant.
  12. @Defyant may be able to help you out with that one. He has a tonne of experience with lights.
  13. Any loss would be minimal on a stock engine. That being said, lower intake temps are always a plus.
  14. You would need to fit extended style mirrors. Factory ones can not be pulled out.
  15. This video may help you. Same engine, just a different car. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmJSkSPCou8
  16. There have been many people complain about this, it has been a known issue for many years. It is part of the reason I opted to buy my vehicle without navigation.
  17. It could be a gas injector or a changeover issue. You will be best served by taking it to an LPG specialist for a check over. LPG is not something you want to mess around with yourself, professionals even manage to blow themselves up on occasion.
