This is the shock in question btw. I've seen more extensively fucked shocks that's for sure. Also flagged me for having only 6mm left on the brakes which frankly seems fine (I'm averaging 2mm a year apparently, start with 14mm iirc? I'm sort of thinking they are trying to drum up some work...

Just had my yearly service and after 14k, I'm I've got a weeping rear shock. I've never had a from new car before but to me isn't that sort of crazy low for a shock to be going? I'd be expecting what, ten years out of a shock?

Yeah same for my spare. Original price, just P&P. Don't buy off eBay and pay scalper rates!

I wandered into Smyth's again and may have another one. If anyone wants it, happy to sell it on for retail price plus postage, or if you're local to Reading can meet up

Hah I was going to see if I could pick up some extras if anyone wanted someone from here. I got two, one still boxed. These ones sit pride of place For some reason I own four Pajero Evolutions. One a boulevard, two white, one red. I hope the day Hot Wheels does a Group 1 GR

Shouldn't be long I expect! The manager was outside and saw me park. Apparently he told the guy behind the desk to expect me 🤣 From what I understand the HKS Skyline is one per box, and there is two GR Yaris per box.

I've been to literally four Smyths today, just last minute checked as it says Slough was out of stock but did a refresh and managed to bag before the scalpers realised the stock had been refreshed. Saw an HKS Skyline too. Was very tempted

They are out. The staff in Smyths have seen them. But you might have to ask them if they have them as they aren't putting them out, as there are buy limits. I've seen the new ones except the Pandem GTR and the GR Yaris, but they are available in the UK as of a couple of days ago it seems.

The distribution takes it's time. They tend to come out first in countries closer to where they are made. Should be here soon

I imagine if you put it up for sale here someone would take it With regards to the Hot Wheels car. It's in Mix 2 of the 2026 release of Boulevard. Will be more expensive than a £2 car. Mix 1 released in Jan and I saw my first Mix 1 the other day. I believe Mix 2 is due to start shipping in...

You know in my entire life I never considered the volume knob to be a percentage of maximum volume, unless there is a physical stop, like on my headphone amp.

Hah. I've seen this GR Yaris about before! Had no idea it was Rowan Atkinson!

I've bought from renaultpartsdirect before and the pickup was Fish Brothers Renault. No issues, OE parts etc.

Sounds like the Hot Wheels one should be close, I saw a Facebook post where someone had one.

Well, least Toyoda has had something good happen to him this week, considering, you know, everything else.

Booked my tire bloke, 608 for 4 PS4-S. Seems pretty good. Though someone on the other place was selling some part used ones for 150 for 4.

First MOT this morning, tester loved it. Sailed through no issues, though the tester did mention I'm getting close to the wear markers on the inside edges, something I was absolutely sure was happening anyway as it's a little bit more squirrelly than normal. Had my friend in the car the other...

Thanks for keeping us in the loop on everything with it, I do always appreciate a poster that comes to the forum with a problem and gets it fixed real world and still comes back to share the info.

Just had a call back from Currie. Apparently any Toyota dealer should be able to do it, but the are booked up until next year pretty much. Service tech should be able to find the details in the service bulletins
