Hi, is it possible for you to do a episode on Toyota harrier turbo? Seen a lot on the road..

and does it have coilovers or lowering springs?

[@clemencec4867]

Fuel Tank size for the Roc 1.4 is 55l not 40l.. but 600km/full tank is still pretty decent compared to what some of the other roc owners are getting :)

U can go on highway cruising mode and get 15-17/L at 90kph. If driving at 120kph of course cant get . Fc is subjective i can go up to kl with 1 tank and i can also go up n down kl with 1 tank see how u drive only

2008-2011 rocs are widely known for being problematics especially the piston failures, DSG and many more ...

[@DaFeLaTV]

not true only the first version got the timing chain problems and aftermarket high quality chains fixed the problems i got mine with nearly 400000km on my scirocco and only switched 1x the timing chain and the turbo the engine is actually pretty good , i tought the same about the problems but i saw many in turkey germany and france only driving the 1.4 tsi after the timing chain switch its even more vulnerable then the R and the 2.0 tsi which had definetly more problems then the 1.4 160hp one i cant complain about mine now i got the 160 hp CAVD motor with stage 2 265 hp since 260000 km and nothing bro no big problems only small problems like switching the brakes or the bulbs

I will say it’s a no for me 😂I rather get a 2.0 which have better dsg and lesser problem .

[@DaFeLaTV]

Doubt that hard bro the dsg can only drive 255nm Max ( dq250) and the dq350 can drive 355nm Max above that the car someday starts to break the shifts and the Clutch definetly the manual 1.4 tsi can drive aber 400nm without Problems the clutch is OEM Set to 400nm

[@gavinang7058]

@@danielfl.9347 timing belt just regular replacement during waterpump replacement. I forged my engine and run meth to keep internals clean. Regular oil change at 3-5k km and a oil drain cup helps prevent “dirty oil cloggage” . Spirited drive once in awhile helps to burn out carbon deposits. Preventive maintenance to fix any small issue before it gets out of hand.
