If we keep going down the current path making headlines on the evening news in ten years time won't be the cops busting a suburban Meth lab but my house with it's backyard Gasoline lab.

There's no compliance to do just paperwork for the EU spec if that's all it takes. You don't think new cars need a physical test in Australia do you. Phil

I'm doing my part in these worrying times.

So out of interest is it changing during the off period or the engine start. If you select the ignition on without starting the car does it still lose the selected station? Might be worth trying for a week or so to see if it's actually happening during the engine start. If that's the case then...

Probably just detune them to the European output. I'm really on board with global warming targets as I sit here freezing my arse off in the coldest Melbourne winter I've ever experienced since moving here 22 years ago. The planets climate future is gravely concerning to me. I'm as concerned and...

As I mentioned the manufacturers oil consumption criteria aren't arrived at for the long term benefit of the customer or the engine but as a smoke screen if you pardon the pun to divert you the owner from a warranty claim. It's a common thing, all manufacturers do it. I was talking to a close...

Disappointing but easily repairable. Phil

Then add paint and the cost is getting up their for a cosmetic mod. So here it's around $7000aud modification if you do the fitting yourself. "tell him he's dreaming" lol. Phil

No worries. Toyota will want you to have them do a consumption check that they monitor so they will have you come in periodically for them to check the levels which is fair enough but it's in your best interests to show them your own data over a decent mileage to get their attention on the...

Measuring the oil consumption over a 1400 mile period you mentioned is a short distance and measuring the consumption over a 5000 mile distance doesn't mean you won't be adding any oil it means you will be logging the oil additions you make over that distance. How Toyota respond is tightly...

It's hard to asses oil consumption over relatively low mileages such as you are doing The more accurate indication is over longer periods such as 5000 mile increments at least. This engine doesn't make it any easier not having a dipstick and a system that seemingly doesn't indicate any quantity...

I'm guessing they could build you a wheel with just the single shift light option across the top at 12 O clock? There was no Supra wheel like that on their website but there was for other makes and they sound pretty accommodating for custom stuff. Really like the style and performance...

Toyota NZ would tell you the warranty is void if you used non OEM floor mats :rolleyes1:

Ok cool thanks for that. Looks like my next spend then:) Phil

Nice wheel, what was the cost if you don't mind me asking? I think I'd go the exact same wheel save for the centering stripe. Is the airbag cover included in the cost? Phil

They can definitely ban you.......from their Christmas card list :)

Me to. What it looks like after integration of parking sensors and radar protection panels etc is another thing but I like the concept images better than stock. Phil

Mine aren't a perfect zero gap at all fit but I never expected them to be. I was more interested in the fact they were precisely parallel to the factory fin next to it. I fitted them on with masking tape and aligned them measuring centre to centre with the std fin and the applied some masking...

It's always a good thing to remind yourself from time to time why things like traditional road car fenders are designed the way they are. Phil
