  1. How many miles on your Supra?

    Windows squeaking when going up and down like nails on a chalk board (needed new window seals and some sort of inner liner as it had perished). Top tip actually is to make sure you clean out the drain holes on the bottom of the door to prevent this if you live in very wet country. They are hard...
  2. How many miles on your Supra?

    Im on 21000 miles with my 2020 3.0Ltr but its my only car so does everything from going to the Tip with a boot full of crap all the way to Caffeine & Machine. Cant say its been issue free but its a good car to do miles in.
  3. Exhausts, opf's, mice and MOT's.

    Just in @Malcolm Feth's defence, the solution you are talking about having done is what the thread he linked you to in the first place is about unless ive misread what you intend to do. My car has had it done and while its not an ASBO monster it makes a great noise with the windows down. Id...
  4. Time to say goodbye :-(

    Hey Steve, did you get the Continental tires in the end? I was thinking of getting a set and wondered if you had thoughts?
  5. She's gone ...

    Its been great to chat over your ownership time, all the best! Whoever buys that thing is probably getting a car better than factory haha
  6. Boot (Trunk) Strut failure

    Ive had the boot closure issue for a long time. As stated by J29DB03 windows down or door open stops it because its an air pressure issue. Once you close the door it forces the air to lift the hatch and its just enough for it to latch back down which is infuriating. One thing you can do is...
  7. How to get Toyota to update car for throttle hesitation issue?

    It is very sad that the dealers are unreliable. I guess i got lucky and the tech put some major time in to help (as shown in my guide post a few pages back). The Tech did say they can only claim time for a standard update when doing it under warranty which is close to an hour, they had my car...
  8. How to get Toyota to update car for throttle hesitation issue?

    Ah apologies, with it saying Birmingham in a UK thread i assumed, Sorry!
  9. How to get Toyota to update car for throttle hesitation issue?

    You do need to make sure its a dealer that's at least GR certified. The dealer I go to isn't a GR centre but is one of the only ones in the area with a Supra Tech still on staff. If you are in the Birmingham area as your profile suggests i would recommend Stratford-Upon-Avon, They have always...
  10. Boot (Trunk) Strut failure

    What are they like? Thats quite cheap. Any photos of them on the car?
  11. How to get Toyota to update car for throttle hesitation issue?

    I can definitely say its worth the effort of getting that update from BMW, I have so much more confidence in the car now.
  12. How to get Toyota to update car for throttle hesitation issue?

    Just a tiny update: Touch wood & cross my fingers but the car has been flawless since the update. Ive done about 2000 miles since the updates previously mentioned and in cold conditions when it tended to be a little more temperamental with no hesitation at all. Id call this fixed! Anyone else...
  13. Boot (Trunk) Strut failure

    Just a small Update: Emerald Struts completely ignored me in regards to seeking there product to fit, not even "we dont want to help" type email. Not used the car much due to a mixture of terrible weather and working from home so cant update on the effects of temperature on the struts at the...
  14. Boot (Trunk) Strut failure

    Did you attempt UK first mate or just took the opportunity to utilise your friend right away?
  15. Boot (Trunk) Strut failure

    Iā€™ve seen that ā€œEmerald Strutsā€ are all over my Facebook wall at the moment for their spring loaded boot struts but they donā€™t officially have one for the Supra. May be able to talk to them and find something that fits. Not sure if they are any good though.
  16. Boot (Trunk) Strut failure

    Ive had the car for a few years now and not had the same issue before but it is -7 at the moment. Its just really annoying at the initial opening and defiantly takes more effort to extend the struts.
  17. Boot (Trunk) Strut failure

    Have you got these?
  18. Boot (Trunk) Strut failure

    As this is a UK thread i was hoping for solutions that could be bought over here as much of the hardware is US only in that thread. Wasn't really looking for an "Auto" open either but i thank you for bringing my attention to it as some of the info can carry over. Id not thought about...
  19. Boot (Trunk) Strut failure

    Hello Gang!, After a few years of having a ducktail spoiler on my car it seems to have developed an issue with the gas struts failing on the boot (trunk) lid. They are currently still working fine when helped up and keep the deck open but don't have the same vigour when lifting they used to...
  20. Manual Pro now the only available UK option

    This seems mad! 4 years and thats it? I'm not even out of the original 5 year warranty and it could be off sale :cry:
