    Hey,

    Just picked up a T4 Avensis 2.0 Litre D4D 126BHP. Love the car but I have a few questions.

    1) Where is the service indicator? Is there nowhere to check how many KM is left to go until service is needed or does the car just throw up a spanner when the service is needed? Do I need to set the Trip to A before starting car to see how low to next service or what. Bloody car has so many settings that I cannot seem to find it and the owners book is not helping.
    2) What type oil should I be using? Should it be a Full or Semi Synthetic? 5w30, 10w30? Every 15000km? or less?
    3) As far I am aware this engine is chain driven, am I correct in saying this, how often should the tensioner be checked?

    1 - No idea on the service settings, should be in the manual, on most recent petrol Toyotas over 5 years old there was none.
    2 - Owners manual should have the oil spec required. Looks like 5w30 according to castrol.co.uk and every 15k km or once a year whichever is sooner.
    3 - Yes it's chain driven
