Hi,
Could you please let me know the jack point for front & rear for Tavera. I checked the user manual, but unable to find proper image like in modern manuals. Ours is 2007 model.

thanks in advance

The Tavera in my post above: Now at 320468 km. Running has not really reduced even at this point. It still does long distance trips. Drove it today. The engine is still smoooth and doesnt miss a beat. Gear change was a little notchy, but never got into a wrong slot. A few creaks here and there, a rusted sump-guard that was replaced, window motors jerky and driver seat-belt retract mechanism are the problems seen. Else, this truck still runs.

The Tavera seems to slowed down a bit possibly due to the clutch. 332798 km today. I did 700 km's over the past 3 days, and it is steady as ever when cruising the highways.

Looking to replace the console - the fuel guage has not been working for quite some time now. The temp gauge looks ok, though. Speedo & Odo working like a clock.
