These cars certainly provide expensive lessons to us... At least you have a clear path ahead for progress now, fingers crossed no more issues!

Look at that glistening! So much clean!

I thought the pressure sensor was to detect if you're scaring the crap out of your passenger with your driving

When you getting paint to it?

Had a small car meet at Portsdown Hill, so because lovely weather, gave it a thorough seeing to. Just can't get enough of that rear end and the blue when the sun hits it

Makes sense from what you're saying, I'd go along with that

How come? Other than the obvious potential fuel left in, but surely a proper swirl around with some kind of solution and heat dried out would eliminate that risk..?

This may be excessive, but, if you know a good welder... Have someone cut it open and do a full on inspection (obviously needs to be a good welder to prevent crap welds and thus leaky holes.) Id also then be half tempted to get it hot dip galvanised (block allllllll holes off but ensure whatever used to block it off with, can be easily removed) then you're set until you're old and in nappies again Have often thought about it myself, but, for the moment, it's a luxury than a necessity-and no space to store a tank!

Am on thr phone, don't have a laptop/pc

I can barely read that let alone know how to pronounce a backwards e and backwards 3

Just realised today it's also on the sainsbury's pumps too

Just been googling about these cancelled purchases, and came across this: "Another increasingly common tactic is for foreign "sellers" to use eBay to collect personal information. You buy from a fake listing, pay, then seller cancels the order with a lame excuse. Once they have your paypal user name, then they can narrow down the amount of tries to hack it, needing only a password, not both data. I even had this occur with the same "seller" twice in a row. I reported it, but like many other problems, eBay employees are too busy tooting their own horn to care." Might be worth increasing the strength of your paypal pw just for safety...?

Out of interest, was it coming from China? Or perhaps that's irrelevant... But I'd recently ordered something from ebay, and also had the seller cancel and refund me, stating the reason as 'seller asked to cancel'. I also felt this was odd, questioned it, and the exact same thing as you... They said they'd rancout of stock. Yet they still had the listing up showing as in stock. People usually change the price to ridiculously high when they run out of stock but don't want to remove the listing. I'm wondering if there is some sort of new way of getting peoples emails/name/address/details by doing this in order to start a scam. Or to try and use those details to set up false accounts or something. Either way, I'm now extremely paranoid there is more to this than a simple 'out of stock' issue.

I'd be concerned if it did affect people with diesel Toyotas But what I don't understand is, why does it affect 97 and before, but not 98 onwards? What was changed in 98 year celicas over 97 and before? Was there some legislation that made them use different materials or something? It sounds almost like they're just giving a blanket statement year just to be safe and keep it simple... Could be my ignorance though...

Soo.... Is it only the engine it affects? Or potentially fuel pumps in the fuel tanks too?

I just find it hard to see the 86 as anything but already a gen8 celica... I get that it's meant to be after the old ae86... But... It just seems soooo much like how a gen8 celica should have been... OK, the engine is questionable but it is what it is. Just disappointed the gr86 isn't turbo'd. Such a small ask for a car nowadays given soooo many have them, I guess they're concerned it could be close to stepping on the Supra's toes...

Just watched that YouTube link all the way through... He takes great care, I'll be doing that before jae!

Update: On the concrete between the rear end of the white gen6 gt4 and the dark blue gen7!

Usually somewhere on the right due to right thumb bias, if it's pc/laptop, nowhere specific that I'm aware of, but now I'll be paying more attention!

Turns out it's possible my colour scheme wasn't inspired by the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Grandsport after all...

This was at some castle ruins I went to visit, forget where now...

You can send off your drive shaft to get refurbished, and it should come back with a brand new rubber on it. I do believe it is for anti vibration damping. I'd rather have it than not.

I didn't think there was anything to debate there? Just messing of course

Or maybe it was karma for owning a gen7 and not the beautifully perfectly shaped gen6
