Evora2010 0 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Hi new forum but I have a weekend car lotus Evora which runs of a Toyota 3.5 engine and gearbox is derived from Toyota. both engine and gearbox are tweaked by lotus maybe so much that it’s almost not a Toyota origins anymore? so my question would a Toyota garage be able to not only complete general service but also things like clutch replacement etc ?

FROSTYBALLS 3,425 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Probably would, but dependent on whether the Toyota dealer is interested in handling a car from a different manufacturer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
flash22 656 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 I wouldn't let them anywhere near it imho, There are plenty of specialists that know these cars inside and out and know the cars quirks - try the lotus owners club for recommendations Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I wanted to ask question in case there’s any Toyota mechanics on this forum who might claim they can carry out service or repairs ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
flash22 656 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Well any "mechanic" can perform a service, if they have the skills, knowledge or specialist tools is another matter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
