Because this has nothing to do with warranty it's about servicing and you obviously don't know the Australian consumer law. His powertrain warranty in it's entirety isn't voided by a tune. Also he has a right to be annoyed at an inclusive deal for scheduled maintenance with a capped price and...

Yep, you just have the paddle holes on the back side still. Shipping to the US was something like 65usd. Not sure if that included any form of duty this week or not not, lol. Phil

The term "disintegration might be an overreach Phil

As @itzTang mentions the logical first thing to do is a system bleed and possibly check the CDV is clear but be prepared for a possible master cylinder replacement. The FocusRS Mk3's used to suffer from the exact same clutch actuation issues from time to time on some cars and it was always the...

Well it's nice of them to upsell you two products that don't really address the underlying issue which is that of their mats degrading on the underside and affecting the carpet. These are just cleaning products. Interesting to hear if it's only an isolated problem or if others have had the same...

2 port engine to start with. I'm not a big fan of integrated exhaust runners, makes the head casting overly complex and complex means more to go wrong in the casting process. Phil

This sort of thing pisses me off as well. The lesson, don't hand over any money until you pick up the car and checked it over.

Price reduction. $350aud plus postage or free pickup. Phil

They basically are disappearing. You can order your new car online these days and collect it from the dealer I assume. Thats only a few steps away from them being non existent. All a Toyota dealer does these days with a new car is fit the number plates, Which they can't even fit straight and in...

Not me I'm afraid, mines never been to a dealer or workshop. Phil

I've never understood the need for a remote starting facility, can anyone explain to me the need for one. The overnight temps get below zero where I live from time to time but I've never thought a remote starting option would be good. What are the other benefits? Phil

Does the concept occur to anyone here that manufacturers make recommendations in the owners manual to cover the dumbest most technically incompetent purchasers on the planet? Of course an engine produces more wear metals during the first hours of use but the argument isn't about that it's about...

Umm, how would that be possible? The ACC needs to be able to apply throttle to maintain speeds under high load conditions such as a steep grade on a freeway and the transmission needs to respond to this on many occasions by shifting down a gear or unlocking the torque converter. Same applies...

I can say to you now without any concern at all that in my experience over many years of new vehicles and engine building for road and racing that there have been far more engine issues in all makes and configurations from the gentle softly softly manufacturers break in than from the just drive...

You don't understand the main beneficiary of the break-in requirements. No one is suggesting you totally disregard them but I wouldn't get too focused on them either. As for the cost of the car, well a Supra is a pretty cheap car in reality. It's cheaper here by a long way than a top of the...

There is no second prize. Phil

I remember the online video of the guy loading FocusRS mk3s onto the boat in Germany doing high speed sliding donuts on the large slushy gravel holding yard area. Nice for the new owner thats ordered and waited for it for a year. He got sacked from what I remember. Phil

I'll find out for you. Phil
