The mechanic just wrote to me saying that he could only replace 1 lift bolt the other was a small bolt and the lift bolts I got where to big has anyone else had this issue is it normal or should I be worried waiting for replys cheers guys

Hi all, I've got '08 Sahara, 120k on clock. Chewing through a lot of oil, LHS turbo looks like it's on the brink. Oil in the hose between the turbo and intercooler. Has anyone or does anyone know how to remove and replace the LHS turbo? Looks like it's in a prick of a spot.

Hi all, I live in Karratha, WA and recently purchased a black 2006 Yaris hatch which has serious paint damage to the roof. I took the car in to one of the two places up here which paint cars and asked them to do a quote up for me to repair the roof, and said i would leave the car with them as long as possible and would pay cash. Today i received the quote from them for $2000 (See below). Now i'm happy to do the drive down to Perth to have it repaired if it's going to be cheaper down there, I just don't have much scope of what a realistic price for the paint job is? Can anyone help me out? Is the quote i received reasonable or should I be heading to a city where it could be done a lot cheaper? Thanks!

hey guys, just wondering if anyone knows: 1. how much it will cost for a new rear bumper to be painted and installed on a corolla ascent hatch by a toyota dealer? 2. how much it will cost at a smash repairs? 3. any site that sells new or used (good condition) bumpers? have a tight, downhill driveway and reversed into the garden a couple months ago. the right side of my rear bumper got pulled off and some clips and parts attaching it to the body of the car broke. probably just going to order in the parts i need but i would like to know how much to replace the bumper completely as it also has some cracks in it. thanks :)

Hi all, I'm new to this site so excuse me if I'm doing anything wrong. I own an AE93 Corolla, the SX SECA model with a Redtop 4AGE. I've owned it for a year or so, and it's just clicked over to 250,000 k's. The car is running fine, however I can't help but think "how much longer is that 4AGE going to hang in there?" I don't think it's worth getting a full rebuild for it, but what are some good high-mileage refreshers for this engine?

Traction control and engine light, came on after having them reset Toyota put it on the scope and said it was fine after being reset. has any one else had this problem What was the out come please How was it fixed??
