  1. That to me is totally unacceptable from the dealer and Toyota Greece. Who did you contact at Toyota Greece...... go higher up the management chain...... to a high level. Dont ask if 4mm is acceptable.....TELL them it is NOT acceptable

  4. I have already contact TOYOTA Greece and the answer is that the gap betwwen 3-4mm is inside the manufacturer specs !!!!

  5. I would have thought that a dealer actually saying 'assembly problem' is a round about way of admitting it is a problem. 4mm is a pretty big gap. If this really bothers you then I would contact Toyota in your country and send them a copy of the image and the dealers response.

  8. We order every inflator/air bag to chassis number, if we let you know it is in and you fail to turn up for the appointment, we only hold the parts for a short time after and then allocate that part to somebody else, (for people in for service for instance) this is probably why your dealer had an airbag available

  9. Hi, It was indeed the same problem. This is what I found after removing the air filter box: No gear position sensor as far as the eye can see! After some searching I found it a bit further to the left and down, below the grey cable: (you can see the attachment point lit up in the bottom part of the picture). After reconnecting it the error vanished and everyone is happy :)

  11. I fitted a new steering wheel the other day, so here's a little video about me bolting it on. Thanks for everyone that takes a look at my videos, many thanks.

  12. Let me start by saying a big 'thank you' to Suzuki! Nine months ago I took delivery of a Suzuki Vitara and in that nine months it's been back in the workshop nine times (it's in there now and has been for the last two weeks). Anyway I got so fed up with the hassle that I decided to get a new car. I live in the High Lands of Scotland and I need a car that isn't going to break down all the time. Anyway I ended up in a Toyota dealership and taking a C-HR for a test drive. I fell in love with it straight away and have ordered a new one, which I get on the 1st March. The dealer has kindly loaned me one until mine arrives and in the last few days I've come to love the car. It's just so comfortable, easy to drive and does amazing M.P.G. My grand daughter calls it a 'teddy car' because the back lights stick out like a teddies ears! If my last car hadn't been so rubbish I would never have found this amazing vehicle. I just hope that you other guys who own these cars feel as I do about them? Ian

  14. Your comments about how useless your wife is at map reading are exactly how I would describe my wife's efforts! Prior to having Sat Nav we had so many arguments about her map reading that she eventually refused to fulfil that role! I was not unhappy with her decision as it means I no longer hear her say "you should have turned left back there, no I mean right" as she turns the atlas upside down! Is it possible that our wives are related!

  15. My personal preference is as little infotainment as possible and using a smartphone for all information instead including sat navs, google or Apple maps does the job better than any other Tom Tom or garmin device, other options are installed aftermarket system that support Apple car play and android auto there are options for around £300 on Amazon. Less distractions while driving better driving experience and safer at most. Regards

  16. We use a mixture of information. More often than not, we use a sat nav (currently a Garmin) backed up by a print from The AA Routefinder. We also have an up-to-date road atlas. When on holiday in the UK, we also use Ordnance Survey maps.

  17. So, olddriver (much nicer if we knew your name), if a number of replies said the Touch 2 Go was really good it sounds like you would spend the money. As it is the few reports come forward shows it is not good value, and I would add to that. Most say buy a TomTom or Garmin (the two biggies in sat navs) for £100 or so (you can spend £250 and more) but seems you would rather use a print out instructions or a road map. The problem I found with either of those is my wife was the one reading me the instructions, mostly just a bit too late, or trying to read a road map. The latter was particularly fraught, because the wife is one of those useless at reading maps - I could give her a road map upside down and she probably wouldn’t notice at all. Your passenger may be a good map reader or good at giving instructions. However, with a stand alone sat Nav, or a smart phone with a sat Nav app, you can listen to instructions that are clear and well ahead of a junction etc. And you don’t get into an argument because there is no one to answer back. Of course, if you have no one with you to read/give instructions you are a bit stuck, apart from stopping by the roadside and hoping you can remember what you have read. Obviously it’s your choice, but personally I couldn’t go back at not use my sat Nav or phone sat Nav app.

  18. Prior to having integrated Sat Navs I owned a Tom Tom which I still possess and in fact was updated today! It cost me about £100 and Tom Tom regularly offer updates at no cost. Initially I used the cigar lighter socket for power and later a USB port. Must say it was impressive and there were few negatives in using it. In fact it's probably better than the integrated Sat Nav in my current Avensis. Like "olddriver" I also used conventional map/atlas but progressed to using Google to find the AA route planner. Simply entered starting address and destination and got detailed directions - still use it sometimes!

  19. For £750, one could buy a high range TomTom, Garmin or similar with lifetime updates, and have a considerable cost saving. Although what constitutes 'lifetime' is decided by the sat nav manufacturer, rather than being one's period of ownership, so one needs to be aware of that. Depends how often one uses the sat nav, whether you prefer an integrated system, etc.

  20. If the sensor's gone, only resetting the ECU won't cut it. Even if the warning light goes off for a while, eventually it will be back on when the O2 sensors sends funny info to the ECU. You would need to get the sensor replaced. Looks like this and is situated somewhere along the exhaust
