Did they replace it with the new blue tooth stereo, or just the same model?

Rich.

Hey noodles, done many water crossings latetly ?

Water in the t/case will cause it to leak, have had it happen to me hehehe :eek:

Do you think they'll replace my clutch after 67K It's not slipping but is making some harsh noises and the bearing is noisy.

On a long hill climb. in low range my clutch had a really bad burning smell but I didnt notice it slip. That was at around 10000km. I am at 40000km now and still does not slip but I am sure there was a problem that day and expect sometime in the future to be up for a new clutch. Seems to be a weak point. Mine is a 05 d4d

My Hilux - 0 issues in the first 6 months of ownership



My Wifes Touareg - 33 issues in its first 6 months of ownership and it cost twice as much

i have had my hilux for a week now and it hasn't missed a beat so far. i am vear happy with the power and the ride quality and it's great car to drive. i just hope at i don't get any issues like alot of you guys have had. i am hopeing that my 07 hilux has most of these problems fixed up. only time will tell..

Today Toyota replaced the rear bearing/seal on the transfer case as it was showing a bit of oil, she's a 05, done 45k and was not a problem fantastic back up just what we pay for. The seals on the canopy tradesman windows keep coming off they will replace the whole window assy no problem, how good is that?:o

In for a new clutch this weekend, Dealer wants me to pay for the flywheel skim. Any thoughts? I know it has to be done when changing the clutch, but why should I pay for it? Faulty clutch damages flywheel, should be toyota paying for it I reckon.

So far just a Transfer case seal after 1500km but i do seem to have a very leaky rear diff atm. Not sure if its locker related

needed a new release bearing for my clutch after 12,500 kms, they ended up putting a whole new clutch in for me

Damn , i feel the odd one out here .

NO PROBLEMS in 40k , all sweet , all works , all goes round . What more could you ask for ? .

Cheers

power steering motor sounds like it may be on way out, ;ot of froth in tank. Starter motor is no good needs replacing.

complete clutch kit and new keys @ 90k

2 full clutch kits and another throw out bearing assembly. I bought it in August 2006 and this all happened in the frist 18 months. Clutch has slipped a couple of times recently so need to take it back.

For me i had an injector replaced and now it's in for a new gear stick assembly.

starter motor replaced, Power steering motor will be replaced on friday

thrust bearing replaced and gearbox rebuilt in an 07 with nearly 60k's steering wheel is worn out on the top possibly sun but most likely from me palm steering! goin to try that on them next service.

Just tried to get some annoying noises (rear seat and something around the passenger airbag) sorted under warranty and was told by the mechanic that there is only a 4 week warranty for squeaks and rattles. Im calling bs on that one.
Thankfully though after a test drive by them (that they couldnt fault), the noises seem to have gone away. I reckon they took the seat and airbag out and refitted them though.

Well I had the 10k service done Saturday and alls good till today, the MP3 player has started to jump, if it keeps that up it going out the window and I will put in a new double din tv/dvd/mp3/radio. seen them on Ebay for about $300. . . . .

The tops of my door trims warped (I'm guessing it was the heat that caused it?). Went to see toyota on thursday, they rang me up yesterday and said to come down and they'll put new ones on.

I've had my lux of 6 months now and that's the only problem i've had.

Cheers
