Or just wait they probably do, they are just fed up with people calling them. It's not an urgent recall it will likely take until the end of the year for them to do it for everyone. I've not been contacted yet but i'm by no means worried. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike 458 Report post Posted September 2, 2016 Considering the fault is a few years old, it would have probably happened to you by now if it was going to happen. As Rob says, there's no rush for it, just get it done with the next service or something Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Test Drives Unlimited 278 Report post Posted September 2, 2016 I not worried about it and the Recall will be done when I get a call from the Dealer Although as long as it doesn't alter the ECUtek Map Sent from my Archos 53 Platinum using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted September 3, 2016 Nothing is being changed with your engine ECU, it's the PS ECU, so I don't see why it would affect any maps you have on there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neal 111 Report post Posted September 3, 2016 Had my recall done on Wednesday just gone at rrg macclesfield while I was in having proper tyres fitted. Thank you Lauren for the yoko recommendation car has great balance now. The recall took a few hours to sort the work order shows the work costing toyota over £900 so it's a fair bet they are taking this seriously Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
long-gone 152 Report post Posted September 3, 2016 Is any recall order likely to come from Toyota GB or from a dealer? Now that mine's past 50,000 miles and four years old it's being serviced/maintained by indies now as I hav elittle confidence in local Toyota dealers, especially at top dollar rates.

It should probably come from T-UK rather than your dealer using their own and DVLA registered owner records, although no harm in you giving a dealer of choice a ring, or possibly even registering if you are not already with 'my toyota' as it highlights any service recalls - https://www.toyota.co.uk/tme#/my-toyota/ Mine is booked in for the week after next at RRG to get this done as I'm also getting my Milltek replaced to the updated flexi-pipe version (weld crack was just starting to show at my 3 years service/MOT the other week), and I was asking Richard if he had ever come across the actual fault that it was for given that RRG Macc likely sees more 86's for work than the rest of the network put together and he hadn't seen or heard of any in the UK which underlines the lack of worry we should have (it would seem it may be more of an issue in tropical-ish countries that have far higher humidity than we do where a few wiring looms have suffered corrosion and shorting). 1 long-gone reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JRot 13 Report post Posted September 26, 2016 Is it just me or did the replacing of the Power Steering ECU make the steering exceptionally heavy... you need biceps and a half to turn my car now... or was that just because I had a full service, recall and coil ignition fault inspection done... and its like a combination of all that. Think I'll have to start on the weights again to be able to drive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GT86-Ian 351 Report post Posted September 26, 2016 My steering feels exactly the same as before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike 458 Report post Posted September 26, 2016 I always find the steering very heavy if I've just jumped out of the courtesy yaris, but by the time I've got home it's felt normal again. As above though, the recall had no effect on the steering 1 Keethos reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
