dublet Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 Poor radio reception. Bought one of those signal boosters and it doesn't fit Loose connection somewhere? I've found the reception pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cravo Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 Loose connection somewhere? I've found the reception pretty good. Original Ariel has been replaced mate with a bee sting. Form over function. Can't get talksport at all anymore haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digs Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 Rain coming in the windows, definetly! Drinks holders, yup! Can't change gear AND have both cupholders out.... Rear visibility isn't that hot either And on a personal note, the fact I haven't driven mine above 2k revs for about 3 months.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damnation Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 On the Gen 7: The utility plug is located exactly where reverse is on the 6-speed. So when my sat nav is plugged in, there will be no reversing! The drink holders in the centre terminal interfere with gear changing (and I only use the rear one) Wish the mirrors were electric folding (like my old 206) Lots'a rear blind spots. Not the end of the world I guess! Would love it if I could transfer the panaramic roof of my old car onto this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rich_p Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 On the Gen 7: The utility plug is located exactly where reverse is on the 6-speed. So when my sat nav is plugged in, there will be no reversing! You can get near flush fit USB sockets for power from the cig lighter, then use USB cable for sat nav power, which again is alot less chunky than the normal cig lighter power adapter. Griffin make a double USB thing for about a £10 sold in tesco. No doubt cheaper on Ebay. I'm currently not liking that my Celica is overseas in another country, and the missus has the keys!!

foxxy Posted June 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 Now that IS nice, it looks so right, as for the GT4 I'd be dead in a week if I had one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harv_j Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 The amount of plastic on the dash used to bug me and also the lack of a computer system that can manage your average speed, mpg etc. Water coming through the weather seal around the window when using a pressure wash was definitely at the top of a short list of dislikes though.

J03 Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 so yours did that as well then , done it twice and i thought i needed a new windscreen Harv's talking about the side windows mate, if it's coming in through your windscreen then you need to take a closer look at what's happening.

harv_j Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 (edited) I'll second that, i'm on about the seal around the side windows. If your windscreen seal has gone, get yourself to Autoglass! EDIT: Other automotive companies that specialise in windscreens exist & are just as good Edited June 18, 2013 by harv_j Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akuma77 Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 yeah ive just noticed sometimes you get a few drips that come down from the inside with rain , only a few drops hardly anything (ive even tried tipping a jug of water accross the winscreen nera the rubbers and it dont come through tbh im probably gonna get the windscreen changed shortly because i have a few stone chips too . I was going to try a bit of clear silicon to see if it seals anything up but its really strange as none of the headlining gets wet lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
