A bit off the route is a great transportation museum....in Glasgow. https://www.dayoutwiththekids.co.uk/glasgow-riverside-museum All the cars are authentic! The cycle at the top (Honda CB400F) was my old bike years ago.

Curse of the "bullet-proof" mystique... I think a lot of Toyo owners have this thing about "Toyota perfection" and that their car ought never need parts replaced to remain showroom perfect... At the 1st sign of wear or needed maintenance and their 8-year old car with 100k miles is deemed to be...

This is one of those mandatory items that IS mandatory.

Very nice Greg!

Originally Posted By: smc733 There's been a seepage under the car, but I assumed it was from the AC condensation (it's below the passenger's seat in the cabin, not under the hood). I will be checking it more carefully now and report back. The timing cover side of the engine does look "wet" as...

$1100 down from $1700 does sound like a typical dealer:indie differential... But I still wonder why the indie was hesitant to do the job...unless I've misinterpreted that bit. I do know an indie who won't do late model Volvos...to many computer diagnostics involved, and another local garage who...

So not valve cover for $1700...had many here confused, that. Perhaps OP needs more details as to the meaning of "timing chain cover" and "reseal".... Perhaps the dealer felt the need to replace other parts along with what was stated by OP here...other parts could include water pump for...
