Question.... I've noticed with my MKV that something towards the front of the car, in the general gear box/diff area/engine, on occasion makes a sort of whine/mechanical noise... Usually only happens in 1st and 2nd gear, it's particularly noticeable in traffic when you do a lot of slowing...

I've been noticing lately (with the hot weather it seems) that my clutch has an intermittent strange noise. * It sounds somewhere between a whine, and a metal on metal grinding noise. * It only seems to happen when it's hot, the clutch that is. I noticed it today because I drove a fair way in...

Got a letter from my rental company, apparently I've been booked for being naughty while in another state, how I managed it in a Toyota is beyond me, but anyway. So what happens, I assume I still have a fine to pay, what about demerit points, how does that work?

Booked my car in for a 7500k oil change and was quoted $240 which to me seems mighty steep (includes oil, filter and labor). What sort of money are other people paying/being quoted at their dealers?
