one thing i would change coming to 100,000km is all the glow plugs along with timing belt. i saw a couple of them with higher mileage have issues with glow plugs being stuck, i suspect the head of it swollen. at least remove and check and apply anti seize Toyota timing belts go for 150 000km. Origi...

Just bought a 2006 GS and am looking for parts locally?

Who looks after yours?

The good news ... parts readily available

The bad news ... it's not available locally

Good advice so far .... get the amg kit, stay away from the diesel esp if it's being imported. And budget for maintenance. This ain't no B14 you're buying. State of the art, precision engineering that needs to be taken care off. Lots of electronics too which can be problematic at this. But the thril...

Hey Sweeky. Hey Guys. Doing some research. Considering a Prado or Fortuner. any advise will be appreciated. Glad to see that you still have her Brother. What specifically are you looking for? Year / Model / Fuel Type? What budget are you working with? Not on tuner a lot but can keep my eyes open fo...

So the sportero went from 275K leather fully loaded to 299k leather fully Loaded??? Car sales in the shitter and prices increasing? Piss being called rain? The BAIC is on sale at the same price? The funny thing here with the Sportero is that there has been a new model out approximately a year now a...

I’d personally purchase a regular f30. BMW uses a very mild hybrid system so not major fuel savings and since they didn’t come trinidad locally I would be worried about special parts/ sensors etc I would agree with j.o.e. as maintenance would be a bit higher on a regular Beamer much less a hybrid. ...

Facelift (New) Hyundai Santa Fe. Retaining same powertrains as before but will also add Hybrid and Plug In Hybrid 1.6T engine just like its sibling the new Sorento.

Heard the new 3 series comes fwd? How's the driving dynamics?

Just a quick update from my end. 2005 kzj120 series doing approx 185 000km (basically same engine except for the intercooler as the kzj90 series) Was getting a brief but loud engine knock on cold start ups for approx 3-5 seconds. Was told it was the injectors, the oil filter clog, the oil strainer c...

Got a brochure for the fully loaded civic. In one word.... Disappointing. 16" rims (rather than 18), halogens (rather than led), no adaptive cruise control, no blind spot monitoring, 180 watt 6 speaker instead of the 450 watt 10 speaker audio that every other country's fully-loaded trim has. A...

Where did you see this? It definitely would be!!

Do you know or have any experience with putting CNG in one?

Thinking about going that way too as it’s a cleaner burning fuel

No I don't.

Personally I wouldn't go down that road.

Reviving an old thread ....

My CD unit recently went. Ordered an exact used replacement in the UK for £50.

BTW I needed a seal 90316-72001 for my kz120 front wheel bearing. I couldn't source it locally and ended up buying it off Ebay. Not even the dealership had it.
