I've combed over Google and threads here but looking for recent input.
I'm looking at a 2005 GX470, has 229K miles. Timing belt/water pump at 201k. Good service records, regular oil changes.
From what I've found the 05 has the updated vvt-i engine.
My main use would be a trail truck and towing a...
Thanks, that helps.
My gut feeling is something to do with the fluid change.
Maybe I'll run a can of Seafoam Transtune through it and another round of drain and fill.
I have another detail that might be associated with my problem.
I do not have a PWR/2nd Start button in right now. It was corroded and I removed awhile ago, I can't recall if the issue started around that time or not as the switch was in bad shape anyway.
Any possibility not having that switch...
Like the title says, transmission goes forward in all gears.
I've put another neutral/range switch in and make sure the selector matches what the indicator light says.
Fluid has been drained and filled twice.
It only starts in park and neutral but immediately wants to move forward in any gear...
Still working on this. If someone could post up the location of the transmission computer I'd appreciate it.
I've searched the forum and used Google and can't get anything specific.
BTW: I've replaced the transmission with a used unit and I'm driving again but getting some codes now and odd...
Thanks for all the input on the craigslist ad, good or bad. It's a nice truck, we've had snow recently and I've gone through lots of slush; it's just dirty that's all. The engine compartment is usually spotless and that's NOT salt on the truck, just snowstorm muck. And the winch line out on the...
Need some help/advice folks.
Changed my transmission fluid a few weeks ago, dropped the pan and changed filter too. 194k on the 04 LC.
Filled with synthetic to proper amount.
Been driving just fine for about two weeks. Parked and went out in the morning and no drive or reverse, or other forward...
A 3rd update I got from Rhino Radios:

Hello,
I apologize, production has delayed due to the Corona-virus and is currently looking to pick up mid - late February
Best,
Vanessa
Following up on this after a dozen or more emails back and forth with Rhino Radios today. I don't know if they have someone different answering their email every-time but this Rhino Radio place is terrible. I'd stay away from them.
I still want to go this route for a replacement for the factory...
Passing on an update I got from Rhino Radios. I ordered my unit on January 17th.
At the time production was stopped for Chinese new year. Now it seems production is still stopped because of corona virus.

Hello Albert,
Currently, Chinese New Year is...
A little revival of this thread as I was looking at this to replace my 04 LC NAV that blanks on and off due to the solder crack issue.
Had a question and a theory.
Since the Canavie unit uses the OE circuit board that has the issue with the pin 60 that needs re-soldering I'm assuming the canavie...
