What you don’t want to do is simply hand over your money to the first turbo kit that comes running. In the quest for raw speed and power for your scion, you are bound to stumble across one of these names: Dezod, Treadstone, P-Tuning, Turbo Toyotas, and Why Industries. Any gearhead will want to tune up their machine, and it is now our job to find you the best value for money you can get. Sadly, with Toyota having killed the production line of Scions, turbo kit companies are also not too keen on producing more iterations of kits for the Scion tC, but we can definitely find some dealers or resellers who have held on to them. So what do you do if you find yourself the debatably lucky owner of a tC? Put in some wrench time and soup it up with some forced induction. Straight out of the factory Scions are hardly awe-inspiring, and would quickly get overshadowed by faster, leaner, and sleeker performance vehicles. The engine, on average, burns 1 quart every 1300 miles! This can get real expensive, especially if you using good, fully synthetic oil.The Scion does not particularly receive celestial praise on the regular, and we get that. Removing that melted rubber is neither fun nor quick!
It was very painful to get all the rubber out of the switch, now running without the cover, so the switch is operational, but, due to exposure to the elements, it died, and had to replace it, but second one melted too, so had to do the same. Trunk release switch cover is even worst, it literally melts into the plastic contrition that sets the release. After few winter/summer cycles, you will have this issue and your trunk becomes unusable regardless of the outside temperatures. The gasket that seals the hatch/trunk door had melted by 3rd year and there is no ownership on dealership's part for this low quality rubber's use. Moon-roof motor died within first year, they replaced it, then again the second, I had to pay for that, and then again the third year, by which time, I didn't want, a yearly, $1000 fee to use the Moon-roof 4 months out of the year. After owning the car since day it rolled out at the shop, I have come to know this car fully in my last 9 years of ownership! I am surprised as to why ratings here are so high! Every TC owner I know has these issues.
