Just to provide some info I asked my local Toyota dealer how much the new centre caps were and was quoted 45 each. Can't remember if that was before or after tax though.

Hi guys, At some point in previous ownership, the centre caps for my wheels went walkies. Does anyone have any that I could nab as I'm trying to restore her back to her former glory Thanks in advance!

Hi guys, My fibreglass j-spec skirts have seen far better days so I'm looking for some OEM side skirts. Does anyone have any, or can I be pointed in the right direction please? Thanks in advance!

I'll take one if it's still there. VVTI

Agreed, glad to meet you all Congrats haha

It's rammed here. Looks like we won't be able to park together lol

Idle is fine and the noise goes away after ~10 mins of driving. It's only there when my foot is off the throttle too which is weird. I can spray some carb cleaner around the vacuum lines when I get the car back but like I said the mechanics reckon it's the TB or a gasket between it and the throttle cable, so it would be good to see if putting someone else's TB on helps at all before I dish out the money for a replacement.

I checked the hoses and they all seem fine. Sounds exactly like this:

Hi guys, I've been diagnosing a very high pitched whistle for the last couple of weeks While getting my new suspension geometry sorted the mechanics have confirmed that it's coming from the throttle body. I'm wondering if anyone has a mkiv VVTI that I can drive to and pop the throttle body on mine to verify that the noise is gone before I buy one. Happy to throw a few quid your way for your time or bring some beers with me Thanks in advance.

Nope

Hey, have you got the throttle body?

I'll be attending with my partner then if that's ok

Yo! What time are you going down?

Hey guys, I've removed the serp belt and the noise is totally unchanged. I've been listening out for the noise and when it disappears etc and have the following updates: 1. The noise seems to be throttle position dependent - if my foot is only just on the throttle or completely off the throttle, it will make the noise. Anything past "only just on the throttle" and the noise disappears. This only applies when driving. When in neutral I can't remember how it behaves but it's not the same. 2. The noise disappears completely after driving for ~10 mins or so. It happens in every gear when in auto mode and tiptronic and doesn't change with speed. I think that's all the info I have but if I think of anything else or notice anything else I'll make sure I note it down. I've also cleaned the throttle body and it made no difference to the noise. I've ordered a new throttle body gasket cause it's cheap and easy to fit, but other than that does anyone else have any ideas? I've found this, does anyone have any thoughts? https://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?707873-High-pitched-whistle-noise-from-power-steering " It's the throttle body. My car is na-t running a FFIM so my throttle body is next to the powersteering pump. It's coming from the linkage for the butterfly. So where the cables connect to the throttle. " " Hi mate, are you still running the factory GE TB? I have read on multiple occasions about how the Q45 TB leaks around the butterfly shaft, and needs to have some remedial work done to it to avoid it leaking under boost. " The only difference is I can't hear it leaking under boost because I've got a fun air filter and exhaust

Crazy... This morning it didn't make the noise. Will see how it is when I start it up to go home
