#719 of 727 Re: xA Being Discontinued [Mr_Shiftright] by autoboy16 Jan 06, 2007 (9:35 pm)
Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (Dec 06, 2006 2:29 pm) It isn't necessarily discontinued. Google 2006 Toyota Ist and Ractis. Its just being redesigned like the xB or toyota bB. Its cool looking and i hope that this/models replace the xB/Xa gracefully if it is the correct model. Just like back in 2002 and 2003 when waiting on the old model to come!!   -Cj

#721 of 727 xA's Big Brother is coming by johnnicon Feb 09, 2007 (4:21 pm)
Check out the Chicago Auto Show, or The Car Connection to see the xD, due in 2008.   16" wheels, side air bags, 128 horsepower, gauges in front of steering wheel, NO SIDE REAR WINDOWS which makes visibility even worse. Looks like a cross between the xB and a VW Replies to this message: lenzai (Feb 10, 2007 6:09 am)

Replying to: piloteddie (Feb 06, 2007 1:44 pm) Yes I had the same problem, and then the drive shaft had to be replaced.
#724 of 727 anyone else having huge problems with the XA? by kimberlyxa May 21, 2008 (6:33 am)
So far I have had to have the bearing in the front of both sides, then the drive shaft was "notched" and had to be replaced. Next the entire transmission failed. Right after I hit 62,000. my toyota dealership cut me a deal since it was RIGHT AFTER the warrenty was up. So it now has a new transmission. Yesterday the front axel broke off??? the AXEL!!! I mean what kind of car throws an axel?? I am fed up. Replies to this message: o_heaviside (Aug 08, 2009 4:50 pm) Mr_Shiftright (Aug 09, 2009 8:50 am)

Replying to: kimberlyxa (May 21, 2008 6:33 am) I purchased a 2006 Scion XA at the end of February 2006. By Labor Day of that year, the first front wheel bearing went bad and had to be replaced under warranty. Five front wheel bearings later I have 133,000 miles on the car.   One other beef: poor fuel economy. I've had the dealer check the engine a few times, always nothing wrong, but my highway economy is around 33 MPG and in city traffic, in the 25 MPG range. I've never seen 40.   Oh, it also eats tires. I've had a couple of separated belt situations on the rear tires. Replies to this message: Mr_Shiftright (Aug 09, 2009 8:50 am)

Replying to: o_heaviside (Aug 08, 2009 4:50 pm) I used to own that very car, same year. You'll NEVER see 40 unless you drive 40 mph all day long. I used to chat with other xA owners and the consensus was about 34 mpg average city/hwy. I also found that the minute you go over 65 mph, your gas mileage will start to drop noticeably, and over 75 mph, rather drastically.   Never had problems with wheel bearings, and the tires? Well, it's an inexpensive car so I imagine the OEM tires they put on it were not the best. Mine lasted 40000 and were really worn out.
