Thanks for the replies everyone, I'm sold! Plus I see V105s are available in 215/40-18, so that's a nice plus for a bit more movement under the car

Another happy V105 user here.... Went from stock primacy tyres on the OEM wheels to some Yokohama V105 in 225/40-18 on my new wheels and haven't looked back and I am on my 3rd set of V105 now Can still swing the back out if you provoke it, takes a little more effort but the way the tyres behave is so much better. The breakaway is very progressive and gives you a lot more trust in what the car will do. The primacy was more grip followed by VERY sideways all or nothing. These are much more predictable and therefore fun Was tempted to jump on the Michelin PS4 bandwagon last time I needed new rubber but decided "if it aint broke don't fix it" and just got another set.

It says in the first sentence of the first post. You are actually more likely to end up making it worse. This thread 😩😩

Second hand fa20 engines aren’t that expensive £2-3k from a breaker. Of course labour to fit might push that higher. Hopefully Toyota diagnose and repair under extended warranty.

If you're dropping your car off for them to look at it, I would expect to get a courtesy car. Worth an ask.

Best thing to do is clean the engine bay up. Then start from cold and check for leaks until the radiator Cooling fans come on once the car gets hot. It should be much easier to spot then. Upload a picture or video if you can.
