I was told 6-9 months. Ended up 13 months. Others ordered a week before me and had theirs in less time. I'm beginning to think the dealership has a lot to do with it. I've seen people order from the smaller rural dealerships and there seems to be a trend of them getting their cars much sooner...

Or if you declutch and don't move the gear lever the ECU revs the engine back up again to stop the car getting light in the tail if you re engage the clutch again? Imagine if you rev it out in second between corners on a twisty mountain drive for instance, declutch, let off the throttle to...

Nothing to worry about. Clean it up and keep an eye on it. It's just some grease from the CV joint. Could just be a little excess grease trapped under the boot mounting flange that squeezed out when the stainless boot clamp was crimped up. Either that or the clamp isn't crimped tight enough...

Oh ok, like alignment holes for the stock emblem? Phil

I'm not quite sure why the badge needs a solid coloured backing. Why not just the toyota emblem unbacked in matt black. Sure the tape on the back would be more complex to cut but you wouldn't have an issue with slight paint colour or finish disparity to worry about or the issue of the paint...

OMG you haven't read anything apart from the headline in the article you linked have you. The dealership were fined for charging for VIN etching they "WERE NOT DOING" among other transgressions AND in the article it not only points out that VIN etching itself "ISN'T A SCAM" and that "plenty of...

Have you no taste or sense of style. It's obviously to look way cool. Phil

Actually selling something you "knowingly" claim has a feature you are aware it doesn't have is a scam or fraudulent. Everything you have presented could at the end of the day be explained by simple miscommunication and a lack of a thorough understanding of the details of something they have...

Nope not heard of that. We don't have it as far as I know. At the end of the day it's just the cut and thrust of negotiating with a dealer and bargaining. I can't see any "scam" issues here. If the window etching is a scam then it's a pretty shit one with regards to a big earner for the dealer...

Look it's simple. To start with nobody knows the details of the PPF offered by the dealer, the OP is making assumptions. So the "scam" thing has no legs as things stand. But overriding all of this is no matter how you cut the deal if it doesn't suit you walk away. Dealers play with OTD figures...

I don't know why people whine about this stuff. For starters it's a free market economy and the dealer can charge what ever they like for a car, we all know this. As for the Protection package you would need to know the full details of what they are offering ( it may be in addition to the std...

I like the stance of a moderately lowered Supra but they are just too hard to live with on a road car day to day basis. Everything becomes more risky and complicated. Speed humps, parking, getting in and out. Then there's the inevitable issues with other stuff people experience here. I've...

Probably just rev hang. Phil

Patiently waiting for the RHD version Phil

They look fine to me. Phil

Here's a tip. Modern fine wire electrode precious metal plugs in general have a very long lifespan and 60,000klms is often the quoted manufacturers replacement interval which for the average person is around 4 years. Some even go 80,000klms. The issue is that although the plug electrodes can...

Yea that happens sometimes. An earth strap bolt you have removed and tightened totally correctly just mysteriously comes loose. Happens all the time :hmm:

From what I have read and some logical deduction it seems most likely that either a section of the wiring or a connector has been damaged during the repair process. CANBUS errors in BMW's have been linked to wiring harness crimped joints in some locations. An oscilloscope used in conjunction...

Possibly different thats why I specified "road". Having said that I know a lot of drivers/riders that can't use the stock power even on a race track. Phil

Seriously? A hundred miles to figure out what is supposedly the best/ultimate mod you can do to a manual Supra. Like I've said before there many mods made that certainly make things feel "different" but different doesn't always mean better it can just means "different". Phil
