Hi all Apologies if this has been covered before, but a week or two ago I found a localised dent on my boot lid 😥 Was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for places to go to get this fixed. I'm based around Derby.. Unfortunately the dent doesn't come out well in photos (looks like it's fine) but reassure there is a dent Cheers, LGE

Definitely visit the Toyota showroom/museum in Odaiba as what others have mentioned above.. here's 2 pics to wet your appetite (I went in 2012)

In case you get lost to the cafe the post code should be KT13 0NY

@VAD17 just to be clear it's the place below? I don't want to embarrass myself and wait at a different location again

I don't have the car for that long.. but that sounds similar to what I experience (probably normal).. hopefully most people will say the same I had the same thoughts as you initially.

this looks interesting.. I'm going to London on Sat so if I can find a cheap hotel I wouldn't mind tagging along. Will keep you posted. EDIT: I think I'm almost there.. just need to book a hotel and buy a ticket.. Concorde is a bonus too! EDIT 2:@VAD17 I'm all booked up (hotel + advance day tix) so I'm confirmed

Finally made it back home after a looong drive Really interesting day.. great experience.. thanks for organising VAD Good to meet you too Will! See you guys around.. EDIT: Also many thanks to angelina gavin brz and co for the tips and advice..

Oh dear I went to wrong place! Will be late

Ignore will head directly to the venue..

That's what the confirmation email said.. I don't have one so won't be bringing one..

So mine was solved by replacing the top mount under warranty.. many thanks to Richard @ RRG.

So I paid a visit to RRG recently and we tried topping up the aircon gas.. Still monitoring it but the smell seemed to have disappeared (or gotten weaker)..

Looks similar to mine when I got it changed. RRG also sprayed some kind of odouriser to get rid of any through the pipes.. Unfortunately that didn't help my situation (i.e. It was fine during startup and idle, but if I drive with A/C + recirc when driving around I get the smell coming through the vents) But to be honest it's bearable cos there isn't really a smell without recirc..

I presume the muck you are referring to is the green "goo"? Some people have mentioned that the green goo elsewhere takes time to burn off.. I presume you checked the cam coverplate already and it's dry.. I have something similar and found the smell is strongest when aircon + recirculation is turned on.. might be worth playing around with the diff settings to see when it happens.. Mine happens when accelerating in general I think.. Closest thing I can think of in terms of smell is burnt coffee?

Thanks guys for the good advice Cheers.

Sorry guys/gals, I have a couple of questions - I know VAD told me it's not necessary, but did any of you buy insurance for this event? - I would like some advice on tyres - I only have had this car for a couple of months and it came with the original (circa 2015!) primacy tyres in the front and rear, but someone has replaced only one tyre at the front right - a primacy 3 instead of primacy HP.. I measure the depths and it was ~4mm at the rears and 6-7mm at the fronts. I was thinking of replacing all 4 with Yoko V105s, but wasn't sure if i should do it before or after the event.. I'm just afraid if i change it before the event I might damage my brand new-ish tyres.. Thanks

I was thinking about the same thing Will.. we probably could talk about what we want to do with pressures during the dinner.. Thanks for the feedback Angelina and nerdstrike

I too have 2 different numbers (the key fob and the manual) ..can anyone confirm which one is the right one?

Hi Will, Just saw your reply on the other forum.. I haven't had any luck with getting this sorted unfortunately.. Let me know if you get anywhere with this with fensport.. Cheers, LGE

Yeap should be fine for the dinner place.. haven't booked a hotel yet though..

I will come also.. what time are you all going? (facebook says it starts at 2pm..) sorry new to these meets but I presume you pay when you enter? Cheers, LGE

Try this facebook link? https://www.facebook.com/pg/HKS.USA.INC/about/?ref=page_internal or try messaging them on facebook? There's also an email address at the bottom of the main page: https://www.hksusa.com/about

I'm not 100% sure if this is relevant, but take a look here: https://www.gt86ownersclub.co.uk/forum/34-cleaning-detailing-maintenance/6694-engine-bay-gunk.html Probably best to get someone else much more experienced to confirm..

Quick question on the ECU remap check, what would happen if you pull the cruise control stick on a stock car?
