      You'll be fine, took me a few years but I am used to feeling stupid. Helps to be married. Positive reinforcement you know?

        Ok this forum has morphed something wicked while I've been away.

        Just wanted to add here that I have a Sept 07 Build and have not yet seen any sign of the dreaded injector rattle. 50 thou on the clock now so I think it'd have turned up by now if it was going to. At least..... that's what I'm telling myself.....

          Hi there. I have just listed my 11/07 Build 02/08 Delivered GXL V6 Auto with Carsales and I have the Option Pack 1. Carsales ONLY option for this vehicle is the Option Pack 1 (Auto). From memory I recall Option Pack 2 was for the D4D.

          Mine has the Leather Wrapped Steering Wheel and Gear Knob, along with Traction and Stability Control and Rear Air-conditioning. It also has buttons on the dash instead of dials. Not sure if there are any other things with that but I think it also had the privacy glass.

          Does that all sound right? There seems to be some contradiction in what each option pack is for. If it is not right then even carsales is getting it wrong as they only allow me to choose Option Pack 1 (GXL Auto) for my model. And it has all the features that you say are in option pack 2. I want to make sure the ad is correct.

            Mate wouldnt worry to much about it. if its worded right then no real issues. If you find your vehicle has more things standard or that are in the option pack and its not in their list then just edit your add and write in the extra things like privacy glass etc if thats not in their standard list. You will find their listing is probably from redbook anyway. Looking at your add if I was interested in it it seems to be fine BUT as I said if you need to add some things like traction control etc if not in carsales listing just add under the other stuff you have listed already. I know friends of ours have an 07 D4D and they have bluetooth/steering wheel controls for phone etc but dont have stability or traction in it, yet I thought you didnt get steering wheel controls till 08 ?? but maybe thats in petrols ?? In general just list everything yours has and you will be write, toyota do some strange things some times. I had 2 90 series grandes, the petrol 97 grande had dual air but not climate control, my 01 turbo diesel didnt have duel air at all, they didnt bring out the dual air in the diesel 90 grande till 02 then it was climate control as well ?? good lot of extras by the way you have left in the vehicle, good you pointed out not flood damaged as alot of people around are extremely wary of that at the moment......Cheers Steve

              Some people seem to be getting confused between an option pack (DAC, TRC, side airbags etc) and general model updates (climate air, leather wheel, privact glass etc).
              If I get a chance later I will post up some info that I have, not comprehensive but will give you an idea.

                Thanks for the feedback Steve. Much appreciated. I haven't gone through the list they automatically generated and so I will do that and check to see if anything is missed. Cheers Dave.

                    Ok great - thanks for clearing that up. I couldn't recall but now that you state it I seem to recall the model I got had some changes\facelift from the earlier 07 model. And the option pack was related to safety features.

                      Updated post #38 above with copies of sales brochures showing option packs for each model.

                      Sorry about the quality but that is the best I can get it and that took three goes.
                      I suggest right clicking on each image and save to your desktop then zoom in. Quality is not the best but you should be able to make most of the info.
