    Toyota HiLux 2007: Should I have to replace the clutch after only 10,000km?

    Toyota Toyota Advice Toyota HiLux Toyota HiLux Advice Toyota HiLux 2007
    THE clutch had to be replaced in my 2007 Toyota HiLux SR5 turbodiesel 4x4 after 10,000km. I was told by the dealer I was responsible because I'd been riding the clutch. In 20 years I've never had a clutch replaced in any other car, and I don't believe I caused the problem. Is there a problem with the current model? I know of two other guys who had HiLux clutches changed at 60,000km.

    TOYOTAS have a bit of a history of clutch-wear issues when geared for highway work, as is the latest HiLux. But usually the problem surfaces only if you're doing a lot of low-speed driving or towing. This could be an explanation in your case, but we'll wait for other HiLux owners to contact us and see what they have to say.
