    Did you watch the video? Almost every issue he had was due to aftermarket ‘upgrades’. Once you start adding a whole lot of aftermarket parts, and getting the thing tuned, why would Toyota accept responsibility? Not that he makes any mention of any ‘denied vehicle faults’. Once you start fording rivers, exceeding the max wading depth, etc, you have to own the consequences.

    Yup, fair comment.

    Plus the fact that Toyota Australia is staffed by absolute cunts who will never agree to any warranty claim of any kind without putting up an often unreasonable fight. It’s just the way it is.

    yup watched that and all the previous vids aswell, 7000$ blown turbos because factory airbox lets dust into turbos, the brake problems poocruisers have is same story -
    toyota denying warranty claims because a vehicle has been offroad, 1800$ starter motor bills for getting wet afew times and crapping itself doesn't inspire much want for
    one i know that - fanboys will be fanboys
