    Toyota Kluger 2009: Bubbling paint
    Answered by Graham Smith · 9 June 2017

    It's not uncommon for the clear coat to peel off on cars of this age, it’s a result of the paint technology of the time, and there’s no alternative to repainting it. I doubt that you would get any help from Toyota with the cost of re-spraying it; the car is eight years old.

    Toyota Kluger 2009: Whining sound from transmission?
    Answered by Carsguide.com.au · 13 December 2013

    Take it to another mechanic who knows Toyotas and have it assessed. I have seen reports of a whining noise coming from the front differential and transfer case. I doubt that it is the automatic transmission itself.

    Toyota Kluger 2009: Is fuel-injector servicing necessary?

    Toyota Kluger 2009: Can I run it on ethanol?
    Answered by CarsGuide team · 8 January 2009
