Have a steering leak on the top of the rack i.e pinion seal is gone on my NZE. Can someone recommend me a good toyota mechanic to change this seal as these cars need special tools to remove the rack. Toyota does not want to do this is its a RORO 2004.

Where can i get the seal alone as TTTL only stocks the entire rack kit for $1100 + vat .

Thanx.

Check toyodiy.com, see if you can find the part number for the seal you need and check Toyota of South Florida (toyota dealershio in Miami) to see if they carry the parts. They dont carry all the parts for the NZE, but you may be able to locate some there...at less than 1/2 the cost from TTTL. Factor in shipping & handling charges through a skybox and it;s still usually way cheaper than TTTL

Call Inshan Ishmeal .. tbe RORO car dealer.. I heard him on radio saying that Toyota Japan says it is ILLEGAL for any toyota dealer to refuse the request to repair ANY toyota vehicle.. be it local or RORO

when Inshan called toyota trinidad he was told that the only reason they MAY not repair a RORO vehicle immediately is because of space or availabilty of resourses to repair such.. they CANNOT blatantly refuse to repair it !

make this case an example !!!! I look foward to your follow up..or contact me here.. I would assist u in what ever way to contact him and follow up with it.
