After reading the QR in the AB I had to ponder once again about the definition “premium product”. What makes premium, who gives such designations. So the quality or satisfaction of customer wishes cannot be – see QR It is actually always the press that gives such designations. Obejktive criteria don’t exist, they are always felt values. Or is it simply an invention of the press to justify the premium prices? I will simply n My Yaris is also a very fine, highly reliable weighing machine, which I like better optically both inside and outside than many so-called premium cars (everything just a matter of taste). I risk it easily and make an upgrade: I drive a Premiumyaris of the premium brand Toyota from now on.

hello wanted to ask you what experiences you have with the lexus gs. my parents think about buying a new used car this year (about 1-2 years) and in the narrower choice there were actually a 5 or a6. now the vw phaeton and the gs were added. at phaeton and gs just find the price very interesting and so far I have heard almost only good about the quality at lexus. so the phaeton is already a different class is clear to me but of the price they are already cheap z u got, we once saw one in the vw center in Cologne, great car only need we would not necessarily this size and am still skeptical about the reliability. is highly praised in the phaeton forum by all owners but many had already broken in the first months and many are of the opinion the lexus one could even compare me with phaeton. I see differently and the seller at vw in Cologne grinst also tormented when I said I would still be at genant brands inform and then maybe because of the search of a phaeton with our specifications call him. I really don’t care what is on the front and since German cars are not from Germany is the argument for me also not more relevant, earlier it was different. maybe we drive next week times at lexus köln look is yes directly opposite and bmw is also there. we have just before not to lease but want to buy a car and drive already min 6-8 years. if he still longer without problems then we also keep it. parents are still driving benz at the moment, but no longer in question. unless there is another new situation of the old find everything that came after 124 is no longer benz. interesting would be the gs 300 with automatic. I would be interested to see how with defective or small defects, consumption and stop driving characteristics. maybe has a nen gas conversion..? fagen über fraqen already in vorraus vielen thanks to mfg bender

Hello! I drive a Toyota Yaris 1.3 sol with automatic transmission. I am a professional commuter and so my Yaris acquired at the end of 2004 has already run 50,000km. With all the nörglers who have been in the Toyota forum lately, I first have to tell my pronounced satisfaction with the car. My Yaris had so far no breakdown, always starts immediately and the oil consumption is at 0.0. Not even a light bulb I had to change so far. Almera (with Renull technology) used other things. Nevertheless, I have a few questions.: 1.) The automatic transmission also switches uphill up to the fourth level. Then, of course, it no longer pulls uphill and slows down. The overdrive (4th level) can be switched off for this reason. Question: Can you switch the overdrive on and off without hesitation at speeds of around 100km/h. Do you have to go off the gas before? the operating instructions do not give any information about this. 2. There Several times there was a slight lack of transmission oil, which is expressed in shiftbacks. But leaks are not to be found around the transmission. What can be lazy there? 3. The car “fits” regularly V-belts, because the wheels probably do not stand in an escape. Also caused by annoying noises. My dealer has so far no remedy besides silicone spray. Does anyone else have this problem? I thank you already in advance! Greeting Christian

Greetings ! I would like to know wiso you have chosen a Toyota/Lexus ? What is the advantage of this car over other vehicles ? What do you think are the advantages / disadvantages of the car ? What do you associate with the Toyota brand ? Well you know, wiso should someone buy a Toyota in your opinion ! PS.: Small question of me : Where is Toyota built in Europe ? Greeting and thank you already in advance ! Ed Edit: Would be nice even if your personal experiences with the dealer “Lackmanm”, I would be happy if there would also come feedback.

Dear moderators, I like to look more often at the Toyota forum of Motor-Talk, since there are interesting news and discussions about “our brand” to read here. But it is not so amusing for anyone to have to read every day the repetition of the same brainless and right-wing rock from a few. Again and again, the same “scandal revelations” about Toyota are spread – no such small media nuance is lost. At the end we are again the “agressive Toyota drivers” with “brand glasses” who do not want to see what we are driving for retrogressive drinks. It would certainly be best for the discussion culture to moderate a little more rigorously here and filter out too provocative postings (from both sides!).

Does the Picnic have a weak clutch ?? In the 4th gear it starts to slide on a case-by-case basis. Strangely, however, that I can let the wheels spin in the 1st gear. Also pulling my WW I have no problems. What could that be ??

For 3 months now we have been driving a used Toyota Previa,2.4 petrol engine the newer model year 2000. We bought it privately, because we would have paid double for a comparable vehicle at the dealer. Now, however, there is the problem, that it consumes a lot of oil, every 2 weeks 1L. Our workshop master said it could be either the shaft seal (rep. approx. 500€) or the piston seals (rep. approx. 400€)(I hope that I can now ric the possible diagnoses Has anyone ever had such a problem and had it repaired? Is it more likely that the shaft seal is broken or more likely that the piston seals are broken? Should it be a more frequent previa problem that the shaft seal is broken, I would have a repair done, but is it more likely that the piston seals are broken, I can save myself the effort and would then rather replenish oil regularly, instead of ine 4000€ to have repair done. Please write me your experiences.

Maybe the opportunity to discuss a topic with little potential for conflict. The Toyota Forum is not really the right place, but I don’t know where this should fit better at MT. If it’s not pleasant, please close it, Andy! So it’s about: Which car advertising, whether in the area of television, cinema, print, poster or radio is it? Which do you find successful, or iginell, funny, well done? And the other way around: Which is boring or just has the best times behind it? It’s all about advertising here; please avoid any drifting to the concrete product à la world domination threads. I’ll start with a negative example: The TV advertisement for the new Ford Mondeo. The spot splashes like this, you see many people staring at the air, until at the end the reason is shown why some people their old boxes a Disposing of balloons: The new Mondeo, where Ford makes the mistake similar to Toyota m. E., trusting in the supposed radiance of the brand and formulating “Mondeo. The new Ford”. As if you would get an accelerated pulse because of a “new Ford”. I find the advertising boring, and the idea didn’t end. Should the old boxes come down in Africa by chance? So, now it’s your turn. Let’s see how long it’s going on …

In the Süddeutsche Zeitung there is a driving area to the UC, overall it does not get away so well:http://www.sueddeutsche.de/…/Short-haul-no-gooder-litter.html I can (unfortunately) understand the criticism of the materials, the interior in the UC does not leave a very high-quality impression.

Hello! Have a problem with a Toyota previa 2.4 gasoline Automatic. The vehicle gets hot fast when driving and starts to cook, but if you switch on the heater and heating it is normal temperature.Head gasket would probably blow in the water circuit in the cold condition too? Can this vehicle be specially ventilated or just ventilated? Vicolafter I don’t know if you can also control something.If it should be the head gasket you have to remove the motor complete or not. Thanks for any advice
