I know this is very old topic. However I have spent over 2 years building and moding my FJ. today I was drivind 130km/h and avaraged 30L/100km [80mph/8mpg]. I have no modified intake, but a snorkel. My engine is 30k old. I run 34" tyres, roof rack and tent. Weight about 2400kg. I had a...

timing....sorry my bad

Maybe this video is not the best, but you will for sure hear a distinctive "different" knocking in front of your car. Standing straight ahead. Or put your hand on right front and you will have knocking vibrations. This is not a usual V8 diesel ticking, it is very different.

Hello, have you managed to get to the bottom of this issue? I have simillar case, where my radio screen is black. No audio. All AC buttons work. I get proper power to the unit, I got the HDD drive tested and it is working fine. I have no clue what causes this. All happened when I unplugged...

Nope, just getting foot of the gas pedal. No brakes

Thanks for your input. Stock suspension is not an option. There are several truck that my firnds have with simillar setup [LC200 + BP51 2" 33" inch] and they do not experience it or not notice it. I will recheck corner to corner height of my car. Is that true that LCs need to be slanted...

Thanks, appreciate your reply. I ordered relocation bracket and once installed I will report back.

Thanks for suggestion, I ordered one. Once it arrives we will see if this helps with my issue. Are you running apanhard bracket? However, my car made 15k on BP51 and 2" lift before this started to occur. This puzzles me.
