REDLINE ALLEYToyota GR Supra A90 buying guide
2019 to now. A GR Supra suits a buyer who wants a modern turbo straight six coupe and will confirm the recalls are done.
Workshop jobs
- Engine software recall. Cars built April 2019 to June 2021 were recalled for engine management software that could damage the oil or vacuum pumps.
- Paint clear coat spots. White bubbles or spots in the clear coat are reported on some cars.
Small jobs
- Fuel tank weld recall. Cars built June to October 2019 were recalled for the fuel tank welds.
- Steering tie rod recall. Cars built mid March to early April 2019 had incorrectly specified tie rods that could suffer vibration related damage.
- Motorway shudder. A shudder through the steering wheel at motorway speed is usually traced to wheels out of balance or alignment.
- ZF 8 speed downshifts. The 8 speed auto can give occasional jolty downshifts, which is a refinement trait more than a fault.
Questions for the seller
- Have all recalls been completed, and can you show the dealer record?
- Is it the 3.0 B58 or the 2.0 B48, and auto or manual?
- Has it been remapped or modified?
