    Grease the driveshaft maybe?

    460 accident

    OEM vs Aftermarket parts is a litmus test for an Insurance Company Ethics. Not all are the same.

    2010 Radio/Head Unit

    At 300k miles, I'd go w/ the first ebay unit and learn to live w/ the yellow screen.

    2010 Radio/Head Unit

    CAN Bus electronics scare me, so anything aftermarket would need to be vetted IMO. OEM is the safest way to go. And I hear you, "infotainment" is the weak link in modern cars.

    2010 Radio/Head Unit

    Replacements screens are OEM? And $50-$100? And easy to install? I'd go that route.

    New 2017 GX460 Owner... May have stepped in it

    Not great, but beyond being much more difficult to wrench on, I doubt you are in imminent danger of a structural failure. In 5 more years though?

    Rear Height Sensors after lift for GX460

    ^ Danke, I either have forgotten or never realized that feature existed lol. Do they actually work well or are they "problematic?"

    Rear Height Sensors after lift for GX460

    Pardon the slightly divergent thread. I saw a ride height sensor on the rear passenger side while underneath the truck and wondered why it's there. I don't have the air ride system. I failed to notice if there was one on the driver's side too. So are these sensors used on non-air ride trim...

    DIY Coolant Valley Leak Repair

    Nice job on the fix! Also, please remind me, what's the difficult disconnection step on the rear of the intake again? I seem to remember people discussing this as problematic, as it's a tight fit w/ the firewall being close. Maybe it's a harness connector? Am I being too vague?

    DIY Coolant Valley Leak Repair

    I wondered about this detail. Lubing the entire o-ring vs just the outside surface may be a subtle but important anti-rolling step.

    DIY Coolant Valley Leak Repair

    @Arcad, how butt clenching was the coolant pipe/o-ring/engine/CVP install? There's definitely some less than ideal entry angles associated w/ that! Those o-rings give me nightmares lol. I would think advantage for the gasket approach here, as there's less "smearing" concerns?

    2013 GX460 kdss lean fix ?

    Mine leans such that the driver's side is lower. It's a 2023, and I have no explanation for it's unicorn status. The delta is about 5/8". This is static. I have no idea what it is while driving.
