Hi everyone, I have a 2011 Toyota Land Cruiser 200 Series, with the 1VD-FTV 4.5 V8 diesel and automatic transmission. I am using a ScanGauge III. The device can already read several standard and XGauge parameters, but I would like to know if anyone has successfully added manual custom XGauge...

That's right, I'm running the 4.5L 1VD-FTV in my Toyota!

The oil pressure seems good to me. The noise was already there before this recent oil change, and it didn't go away after the service. I also had an engine flush done during the process, but the sound persists. I don't feel any vibration or anything else when the noise happens...

Thanks for the feedback, @GrouchyTech. Additional context: Recent Maintenance: Less than 500km ago, I performed a full oil (and filter) change. I also dropped the oil pan to clean it and inspected/cleaned the oil pickup screen (oil pump pickup). Oil Specs: I switched from Liqui Moly 5W30 to...

Thanks for the feedback. I'm working on getting a better quality recording for you guys. In the meantime, I’ve narrowed down exactly when it happens: Load: It does not make the noise in neutral. It only happens when the engine is under load. RPM Range: It’s most prominent between 1000 and 2000...

Hi everyone, I am experiencing a rhythmic ticking noise in my Land Cruiser 200 and I am trying to identify the cause. Important note: The video linked below is not my car, but I found it on YouTube and the noise is exactly the same as what I am hearing in mine. Reference Video: My Vehicle...

Fixed it by disconnecting the batteries! I left them disconnected for about an hour, and when I hooked them back up, the warning was gone. Thank you so much for the help! It’s a huge relief to lose that "limp mode" feeling of driving a rig that isn't at 100%. Plus, it's great to finally have my...

I have 2 fuses: ECU-B1 and ECU-B2 on the main fuse box. I have tried with the ECU-B1 only (following the video). But does not work.. :(

Hi again! I’ve followed the steps, and my Launch scan tool now confirms the AHC system is set to “not equipped.” Definitely a step in the right direction! However, the center display still shows the “Check 4-WHEEL AHC system” warning. I’m now pulling error code U0132: "Lost Communication with...

Oh! Thank you so much for the quick response. At the level of the 3rd row of seats? Do I need to remove the 3rd-row seat or any of the seatbelts? Thanks again!

Hi everyone! I just picked up a 2011 Land Cruiser 200 (LHD, European spec). The previous owner swapped the stock suspension for an OME BP-51 setup, but I’m getting a 'Check 4WD system AHC' warning on the center display. I’ve already removed the kick panels on both sides and the glove box...
