  • Exhaust corroded and rusted through - 2009 150!!

    New exhaust needed already (middle and end box) - only 40,000 miles (2009 150 Lc4 (VX)). Somewhat disappointed to be told at service exhaust needs replacing - and the car has been given an amber warning for 'under-body-corrosion'. Its not 6 years old yet .....(always thought it all looked somewhat rusty underneath from the get go when bought it as a 1 year old from Toyota) ..... think may be time to get rid and change manufacture - maybe a Discovery?

    Does it get cold enough to have to salt the roads where you are?

      Very occasionally - but my previous cruisers I kept longer living further North and with no such problems...

        I wonder if it was an ex demo. Taken by some dropkick motoring journalists through salt water, just for fun.

        I hear credible rumors that that happens over here.
