| ![]() Yes. I got used to it as well. Only that I need to time my clutch release a little early at the signals. Would have been happier without it though. |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() MASSIVE Downpour, chaos & panic on the waterlogged streets of Mumbai today. Took me more than 1.5 hours to reach home, which usually is a 5 mins drive. Both my Fortuners put to the test & sailed through the high waters with confidence. Lucky to own these beasts, Hope everyone reaches home SAFELY ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() Update: 10,000km service; Got the car in at Millenium Toyota (Thane) for 10k kms service, got an extremely good service experience & also some of them recognised this car as it was a part of 3 successful video reviews on my YouTube channel ![]() Once the job card was opened the boys got working/inspecting; ![]() Battery too was inspected; ![]() Tyres rotated (4 tyre rotation) ![]() Brakes were cleaned & high temp. grease applied. 1st time saw the caliper up close, it indeed looks amazing IMO. Toyota should have dressed it up with their name or a TRD logo, haha ... a missed opportunity. ![]() Propeller shaft greasing; ![]() Interesting to see Toyota use the same Engine oil for both petrol or diesel; ![]() Air Filter was cleaned. Gulped in 7.5L ![]() ^ Oil Filter was also replaced. Brake fluid topped up; ![]() Coolant top up; ![]() Much needed underbody wash; ![]() At this point exactly 7 people were working on the car & getting it ready; ![]() Total Bill of INR 2891/- ![]() Total Duration: 1.5 hrz Being physically present to witness the service being carried out was extremely satisfying to the eyes & i had a great time indeed.

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() Well, as this was only the 3rd service the labour charges were free. Last edited by Gannu_1 : 18th November 2017 at 11:36. Reason: Quoted post edited. |

| ![]() Wonderful update! My Fortuner just breached the 4K mark last weekend. Taking it to Bangalore next weekend. Lanson Pallikaranai does not allow me to either witness the service done or take pictures. I just wish I'm able to check out the work being carried out in person. Quote: ![]() I don't allow Lanson to carry out the underbody water wash to my Fortuner. They use super-hard-water, which leave extremely bad water marks all over the car. I'm not very happy with the service levels either. I will write an email to Toyota soon. Happy Driving Karan!!! | |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() While driving back to Mumbai from Pune got a very respectable FE of 15.8 km/l; ![]() This was with mixed driving & not trying too hard to put up a good FE show to be honest, have a feeling 18 km/l is achievable ![]() Last edited by karan561 : 1st January 2018 at 16:12. |
