  1. How many miles on your Supra?

    Iā€™m not a UK driver butā€¦Texas car, daily driver 2021 3.0 Premium, owned 3.5 years at 35K miles. Bought it when my C8 order was taking longer than I could afford to wait. Until recently, I planned to replace it with a 2024 Z06 but had a hard time rationalizing the price difference so Iā€™m...

  3. Front Radar Sensor- Error 482136 Sensor Misalignment

    That scratch on the back corner?!! Sounds like Bs to me but then again Iā€™m the guy they showed a video to claiming that adjustment point was a broken laser soā€¦šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø What are they doing to fix it for $1500? The sensor is almost $4K at list price. Is it 1500 to replace that bracket and put it...
  4. Front Radar Sensor- Error 482136 Sensor Misalignment

    Can your tell me what this part is (circled in red)? Is this an adjustment point or is there anything fragile here? Thatā€™s what they mentioned when saying a rock hit my MM Wave sensor and ā€œbroke the laserā€. Iā€™m guessing itā€™s an adjustment point but donā€™t know for sure so I ordered the two...
  5. Front Radar Sensor- Error 482136 Sensor Misalignment

    No, just the borescope video. They didnā€™t take the bumper off. Glad you posted your comments. I was just about to go through a third party to replace and align it. Your post convinced me I should take another look at it.
  6. Front Radar Sensor- Error 482136 Sensor Misalignment

    I discovered you can't actually see the sensor using a scope. You can see the adjusting screw but not the actual sensor.
  7. Front Radar Sensor- Error 482136 Sensor Misalignment

    Agreed. They're definitely nervous about replacing these. It's not the first one I've seen on these boards. The accident avoidance system went out on my Supra when it had 1500 miles on it so it's not the first time I've had an issue with it. I'll bring that up if I have to go to Toyota Corporate.
  8. Front Radar Sensor- Error 482136 Sensor Misalignment

    Same errors are you are seeing. Your post made me get off my backside and take another look at the video they sent to prove it had damage. I also put my borescope through the alignment hole and realized they're full of shi#. They claimed it showed a "damaged laser" but now I think they...
  9. Front Radar Sensor- Error 482136 Sensor Misalignment

    I ran into a similar issue. The dealer claims a rock went through the small adjustment hole and damaged the sensor so not covered by the warranty. I was logging onto the site to ask if anyone has replaced theirs since itā€™s $4700 through the dealer while I can buy the sensor from an online...
  10. Austin Supras?

    Good to see some activity here. Itā€™s been a while! Just to see what others are up to, I sometimes check in on the San Antonio Supra FB group and either their FB or IG chat. They always have something going on in the chat.
  11. What's your current 2 Car Garage? What's your dream 2 Car Garage :)

    Current Supra & ā€œOld Blueā€ Dreamā€¦pretty happy w these two. Maybe GT3 RS and one of the current two.
  12. Reduced Driver Assistance Warning Popped Up

    Mine went out at 1500 miles and they fixed it no problems. Went out again at 30000 and now they claim I damaged it when I didnā€™tā€¦ hope they fix yours without any issues. Seems to be a thing with Supras.
  13. Radar issue -- go to different dealer or GM?

    TLDR: When arguing with a dealer on a warranty claim, should you cut bait and go to another dealer or work your way up in the same dealership? The radar on my Supra has gone out of alignment or has failed so I took it to a local dealer since my car is still under the factory warranty. They...
  14. Reduced Driver Assistance Warning Popped Up

    Iā€™m dealing with this right now. The PPF on my bumper had a scuff. they claim it damaged the sensor And donā€™t want to replace my radar under warranty. Not sure if it would help to get a second opinion from a different dealer after removing the PPF since the paint underneath is undamaged...
  15. Austin Supras?

    where did you wind up and did you like the service + advisor? Mine is going to Round Rock for warranty work next week (the radar cruise isnā€™t working). šŸ˜–

  17. What Pisses You Off The MOST About Modern Car Culture?

    Old guy here. Get off my lawn before I have to resort to a scorched earth approach! I second the ruined car meet comments from above. Luckily we have several morning car meets that tend to be pretty chill so I go to those now. Still miss those weekend parking lot meetups though. I also hate...
  18. Christmas tree dashboard

    It seems like initially it had a couple of errors that would clear for a few days by turning the car off & back on. It became more frequent and the errors were coming back quicker after restarts until I had the dealer take a look (the power steering going out is the thing that pushed me over bc...
  19. Christmas tree dashboard

    Mine did something similar and had to be towed back to the dealership with 1500 miles on it. It went from the errors to a failed electric power steering rack (EPS). I think the timing of the two was coincidental but who knows. I lucked out and the Supra tech was awesome. He had to reset the...
  20. Austin Supras?

    Might need a new front rim and Def need a tire. šŸ™„ Cover was left off a drain in a church parking lot (I was there for a funeral so this wasnā€™t needed today). It tore a hole in the sidewall...Planning to have it towed to get it checked out. Anyone have stock wheels for sale (or a single front)...
