A total of five courses are available for all Toyota 86 models produced between 2012 and 2016, bringing them back to pristine mechanical condition regardless of the mileage and the number of previous owners.
Toyota originally announced the refresh program last January, but is now releasing more details and pricing information. The automaker breaks it into five different sections, focused on the powertrain, the rubber mounts, the suspension bush rubber, the shock absorbers, and the brakes.
The engine refresh costs ¥121,000 ($870) and includes a thorough cleaning of the powertrain’s internals and replacement parts for the ignition system. According to Toyota, this results in an improved accelerator response, reverting the engine to its original performance. The rubber mount refresh costs ¥99,000 ($712), adding fresh rubber on the engine, gearbox, differential, and muffler, which translates to reduced vibrations and improved clutch operation.
Next up is the suspension rubber bush refresh, which will replace the bushings for ¥122,100 ($878), restoring the responsiveness during cornering. If you want to get back the new car ride feeling, the shock absorber refresh is a must-have, replacing all four shocks for ¥163,900 ($1,179). Last but not least, the brake refresh costs ¥125,400 ($903) and includes replacement parts for the calipers, disc rotors, and brake pads, bringing back the full braking performance of the vehicle.
For anyone that wants to go through all five courses, the total cost is ¥631,400 ($4,537). After that, the only thing missing is good exterior and interior detailing, so the Toyota 86 shines as well as it drives.
Toyota’s “86 Refresh Service” is already available in the Japanese Kinto factory since July 12. Selected GR Garage stores in Tokyo, Osaka, Aichi, and Shizuoka are set to follow shortly before a forthcoming nationwide expansion.
