  1. I think the car has got a bit more down low but definable more after 3500rpm spins the tyres 1 and 2nd a lot more than when it was standard I wish he could of raised the rev limit to 7200 as the engine just feels like it can handle it no problem, RR racing give you this option and I should have gone with RRs tune in the first place but that's all hindsight you live and learn, also this is only a flash tune not a full dyno tune no gearbox tune, no rev limit, no rear o2 code removal, no throttle response for the price you don't get much and this is with the front cat opened up mated to the Xforce but its still a FFing blast to drive.
  2. Hey thanks Danny it is all sorted like you said same problem, it was missing a low idle table, car goes strong but only above 3500rpm, I have done 500kms with NO issues, now the fun starts to get my tilt tow money back cheers
  3. Yes this tuner (sonny duran) should have known there is a difference between 2010 and 2011, I am out of pocket $2000 for his incompetence let alone the stress he put me through time will tell if I get my $$$$$ compensation back. And no I could not drive it back as it was so dangerous no power in Sydney traffic just think about that for a while,,,,, and he had the same problem with another car, the same model ISF just after my car. it was in the soft ware problem it took 2 week to get it fixed. I have 40 year experienced as a mechanic and I told him what the problem was, go figure ............................. I am 350kms away from Sydney so tilt tows aren't cheap
  4. Looks pretty sus any hissing sound,you might get away with plastic weld or a manifold from the wreakers.
  5. Thanks Danny car is STILL at sonnys I will let you know tomorrow did your customer get his fixed cheers. one thing that sh#ts me is I am in Moruya and I said to sonny "I do not want to be coming back" well I didn't but the car did on a tilt tow
  6. Who tuned the car. can you tell us what the fix is cheers.
  7. Yes mine is a my11 and at the moment its in at Sonnys will let you know what happens.
  8. Do a compression test, any bubbles in the radiator, your plugs will tell you the story, get a heat gun of ebay cheap as chips, point it at the exhaust manifolds with the car running the coldest is were the head gasket has failed tell us what you find.
  9. Hello I would like to know what you think about the thread I just posted  do you think this is tune related or a total coincidence, I'd appreciate your opinion on this, thank you Neill.

  10. DYNOTUNE now P2119 code Ok i had a full dyno tune done by a Reputable tuner in Sydney he has done a dozen ISF,s ran good but 200km,s out of Sydney the P2119 code comes up (I know what the codes are throttle actuator or throttle body or ecm) it did it 7 times now in 250km,s I cleaned the TB which wasn't dirty. Had it down Toyota and they are stumped and guess its the TB. my question is, is this a coincidence or is it something to do with the tune. Yes I have rang the tuner up and he says OH it couldn't be the tune!!!! but the car has run PERFECTLY for 8000km,s before he touched it. HAS ANYONE HAD THIS PROBLEM AND ANY SUGESTIONS ON HOW TO FIX THIS, Would a computer reflash fix this thanks in advance. PS I want my baby back... Yes it has more power UP TOP, 237rwks after 270rkws but still the same until 3500rpm a LOT OF MONEY for a small gain if I had my time over I would NOT do it after all the computer is a self learning computer . My 2 commodores tuned by Gentec Canberra with full bolt ons were day and night this tune is on the ISF is like I think I can, I think I can OH gee I wish I was a 5.7 liter v8
  11. could be condensation smell the steam does it smell like coolant, keep a good eye on your temp and coolant level hope its not a head gasket good luck.
  12. Welcome both cars are very nice if you are in Sydney take the ISF to Sonny Duran At Autowerks and get a tune enjoy.
  13. Just buy a good tool eg king chrome I still don't know how you broke a filter removal tool were you going the right way if you get stuck just put the fresh oil in and do the filter later.
  14. Very nice car but they are dropping a bit in price, not many people know what they are getting its worth every penny good luck
  15. Fuel injector, start the car in a dark place and see if you can see any sparks around the plug and leads its a good starting point let us know what you find cheers. Get a infrared heat gun cheap as chips of eBay point it at each exhaust manifold and the coldest one is your problem.
  16. How many km,s on it. sounds like a tappet if it get any louder take it to Toyota it is virtually the same motor as the Aurion let us know cheers.
  17. I had a bad sharp rattle over sharp bumps, put some self adhesive felt tape (from Bunnings) on the top of the spring loaded wind deflector and cleaned the rubber seal with WD no more rattle, it may work for yours check out utube for sunroof adjustment to and the US forum good luck.
  18. Hey sparky have you gone to a good panel beater and got a quote that would be interesting ??
  19. Yes it takes a little power and no your car should not shake when you turn it off
  20. It could be obstructed by some thing or the motor may be on the way out, take it to Toyota it should be the same motor as the Aurion rear shade has??
  21. looks good did you get it of UK eBay cheers. ( I don't get the don't talk to me bit??)
  22. Yep add up the money, pros and cons how long do you want to keep the new or old car for as I have seen the price slowly coming down on carsales. I read your us forum post to if you could find the right car at a dealer and got a good trade yes but there are a lot of "ifs and buts" its up to you in the end cheers my ISF friend
  23. Just had a full flush new filter and pan gasket by a GOOD auto gearbox shop. I supplied the WS ATF (12litres trade cost $204,80 from Toyota ) $295 parts and labour so $500 all up and yes no difference just nice and smooth as it was, 76000km,s and its done, so just a price guide and peace of mined......cheers

  25. These prices are a joke i bought a Aurion with the 100000 km,s service just done at Toyota (i asked for the print out ) $670 this is a major sevice the Lexus is350 is virtually the same motor . How much would Lexus charge for a ISF major service.??
