Just to update I cleans my battery connections like frawstme was saying to try. Still gotta get the stuff for the voltage drop test. But weirdly after cleaning the terminals my dash fixed itself. I don’t know if it has any correlation. But after reading through the other forms on here I would...

Any update on what the shop was saying. My 04 LX speedometer just crapped out and the rest are doing the dance.

Okay I’ll go ahead and test these things in the next few days. I did start looking a fuses a bit ago like MET and GAUGE 1 which were good but I’ll look at the rest soon. Also just to clarify, by negative post (not clamp), does that mean make sure I’m measuring from the actual battery post not...

Odometer gains miles. Cruise control works. Shifts normal. Haven’t off roaded in over two weeks. Battery says around 13-15 while driving and about 12.5 while off Couple other things. On the last start up, all of the gauges took a bit to start up maybe 7-12 seconds after ignition. Also I just...

My speedometer in my 2004 lx470 just stoped working when I turned on my car this morning. Didn’t move even on start up. Also when inserting key all of the gauges wiggle back and forth slightly. Additionally in the trip info of my nav system, it seems to still be able to track the average speed...

Thanks yall. Got the starter switched out. The front half of the starter had self disassembled haha. Only a few bigger metal chunks. I was able to get them out and I just vacuumed out as much random metal bits as I could. She starts up great again. Definitely learned my lesson, do not ignore...

Wadup everyone. So my 2004 lx470 starter decided to blow to smithereens. And it was then rattling around in the bell housing for a couple minutes while I tried to locate where the sound was coming from. I took some pictures of the flex plate from below cause I am curious if this looks like I...

Working on a 80s series this week from Mongolia. And this girl has broken the record for the most times body worked I’ve seen so far. Count the rings like you would a tree and this drivers fender has been body worked and painted 5 times hahaha. Wish me luck.

Crazy the color difference 50 years of sun makes. All the door jambs where the rubber met were un-oranged haha

Hahaha

Just finished repainting this 60s series for a customer back to the OEM color. Just realized as I’m putting it back together that I forgot to paint the gas cap, oops. Thought I’d share the picture just for fun.

Thanks! I’ll have to look into these

I have a 2004 Lx470. My headers have been leaking for a while now and I’m starting to get sick of the extra noise. Since it seems like Doug Thorley isn’t making the headers for the 100 series anymore. Does anyone know any alternatives that are reliable and worth the replacement or should I just...

Do you remember the part number for that Australian climate control panel. I’m trying g to hunt one down

Thank you! I’m gonna try all that this weekend and see if I can locate the problem.
