Well it's finally happened, Toyota, the market leader, has extended their warranties to catch up. There were systems in place to do warranty repairs till 5yrs (internally, unadvertised), but now it's finally official, yay!

When it comes to buying a new car, we believe that nothing should stand between you and the thrill of the drive. Which is why we've made sure every[T5] new model bought after 1 January 2019 is protected by a minimum five-year unlimited kilometre warranty that covers any part, panel and accessory made by Toyota.

    Toyota servicing is Rip off, Costed me $1140 for major service for 2010 Toyota Yaris [ 80,000 km ].
    Initially, I was quoted $700

      That's 20% of the vehicles value. Go independent next time or YouTube and diy.

      No, Thank you!

    Reminds me I should think of getting a new Toyota. 40,000km a year really kills it.

      Jees! What are you driving now?

        2014 RAV4

        • Employeespackbace @ Toyota Australia on 04/01/2019 - 14:26

          Might be worth looking at the new hybrid Rav4 in May/June :)

            @spackbace: So it's like a self charging battery? No need for a recharge station?

            • Employeespackbace @ Toyota Australia on 04/01/2019 - 14:38

              @Clear: Yep, does it all automatically. Just helps bring down the fuel average (and it works). New Camry hybrid needs premium fuel however, but new Corolla hybrid doesn't. Not sure what Rav4 will need

              • Gorian4 on 04/01/2019 - 14:40

                @spackbace: Hey SpaceFront, do you have any info on when they will release the Kluger Hybrid?

                  @Gorian4: Nope

                  By end of 2020 is all I could guess, purely because of Toyota's commitment to a certain number of hybrid models by 2020

                  • Gorian4 on 04/01/2019 - 14:58

                    @spackbace: Any idea when Toyota will put an electric handbrake in the Kluger? Foot operated seems Flinstones like

                      @chumlee: No idea. Next generation maybe?

              • PinzVidz on 04/01/2019 - 15:01

                @spackbace: 50 series RAV4 hybrid will run same engine as current Camry Hybrid (i.e. A25A-FXS) so more than likely it'll require premium fuel as well.

                • Employeespackbace @ Toyota Australia on 04/01/2019 - 16:36

                  @PinzVidz: Yeah I was thinking that lol

                @spackbace: The new Camry Hybrid needs premium fuel?

                Doesn't that defeat the purpose of saving money on fuel?

                  @cristobaljames: It's still more economical even with the need for premium

                  It's only $1500 more than petrol, you'd make that back and then some

                  • cristobaljames on 07/01/2019 - 22:33

                    @spackbace: Currently driving the Hybrid Camry 2013 and I like the fact I can use the 91 option. This change may impact my decision whether to upgrade to the newest model
                    Seems a shame that they have made that a necessity as I wouldn't consider a Camry a performance vehicle.

                    Which dealership are you based at, if you don't mind me asking?

          • EnALup on 05/01/2019 - 00:23

            @spackbace: Wow. Driving 2012 RAV4 (previous gen) and I like its seating position and small size though I had to change tyres in 4 years (30k km only).
            Mileage was not great (approx 8.5 km/L) compared to larger Kluger 3.5 l V6 engine (approx 11 km/l) in city.
            Hybrid will be a good option I suppose, else I am thinking to get a Diesel variant.

                @spackbace: Might get Audi Q5 for a change. I drove it in Europe and loved it.

  • superforever on 04/01/2019 - 15:18

    Is it also 5 years cap price servicing?

    • PinzVidz on 04/01/2019 - 16:02

      For recently released new gen models it is.

      • superforever on 04/01/2019 - 20:32

        For recently released new gen models it is.

        So you mean not for Yaris?

        • PinzVidz on 04/01/2019 - 21:43

          Current shape Yaris first released 2011.

    Would still get a Kia with 7 years warranty and generally better driving experience for less money.

    • superforever on 04/01/2019 - 20:32

      for less money.

      If you don't care about re-sale value and servicing.

        Servicing? Servicing cost is basically the same regardless of the brand. Resale on Kia's is actually quite good now, and as you paid less to start with it's all a bit of a wash.

          Servicing?

          I am not sure about KIA. I want told by my friend that their service of his Hyundai Kona was not so good but the car is OK.

          • brendanm on 05/01/2019 - 11:16

            @superforever: You can get your car serviced anywhere. Also what would make him think the service was "not so good"? Not sure how you can do a bad job of changing oil and filter really.

          • StonedWizard on 07/01/2019 - 10:26

            @superforever: @superforever it may be that the service centre was crap. Which I find most dealers to be (also bad mechanics as well). The challenge is finding one who’s trusted.

            Kia and Hyundai on their petrol cars have basic servicing till 120k km. Mainly oil and filters. At 5 years drain oil and flush transmission at 90k km.

            Really basic and simple stuff, not worth the $299 Kia want for each basic service.

            Where the service can be botched is if the person (usually the apprentice) over tightens the sumo plug and other crucial bolts.

            I wish we had a system like Ford America where so long as you can demonstrate you’ve serviced the car correctly (May also possibly need Ford OEM parts) your warranty is kept.

          No, servicing is not the same, it varies quite dramatically

            @spackbace: Lol, yes if you are silly enough to have a vehicle serviced at the dealer.

            Most of those prices are ridiculous. Most cars nowadays don't need any major servicing until 90/100/110k km. An air filter and cabin filter here and there, and a fuel filter for diesels.

        Well you could sell a Kia after five years of use and it will STILL have another two years full warranty.
        Kias and Hyundai make a lot of sense these days.

    Consumer Law offers more protection than a warranty but Toyota is generally a risk averse business so will honour most claims even dubious examples. The dealer network though can be problematic.
