    90 octane ethanol free fuel

    If you drive the car regularly stick to 93, if you park it for prolonged periods such as 4-6 months at a time ethanol free fuel will be advantageous for storage.

    TPMS mystery question

    My tire guy installed Shrader TPMS sensors in place of my expired Toyota OEM sensors, if I remember right, they were dual frequency. Adapting them to the vehicle wasn't so much of an issue , rather accuracy of PSI was off on Shrader sensors. So as Grouchy Tech above post, stick to Toyota ...

    Tire Pressure recommendation

    I've been running Trail Terrain 285/60 for a few years now, in fact I'm on my second set. 33psi indicated on the TPMS, 34 on my extremely accurate tire gauge worked wonderful thus far, even wear @ 28K mi. 40/38 cold tire pressure is too much.

    Tire question….

    It's normal for LC to wear the outer edges of the OEM tires. Keep the cold tire pressure 33-34psi, as you're rolling down 70-80mph on hot summer days it will increase to 39-40psi. 36psi isn't ideal.

    Door locks acting up

    My passenger door started acting up a year ago, wouldn't lock with the FOB, only from inside the car I was manually able to lock the car, I ended up replacing the actuator, part itself wasn't terribly expensive, took me about an hour to replace it.

    285/60/18 vs 285/6518 KO2

    I can't comment on 285/65, I decided to go with stock 285/60 D range KO2s, as you can see KO2s do add substantial weight , on road I do feel the acceleration and braking suffer a bid hence the MPG, ride is very decent compare to the OEM tyres, however at fwy speeds if you hit potholes heavier...

    4wd test- Large (stock) SUV comparison video w/ great commentary

    Imagine if the LC had triple lockers as they did on the 80 series, G wagen would have noting on it. Adding more to my comment , G wagen has a harsh ride, horrid road manners compare to an LC As for the RR, my wife's been driving 3 generations of them for 24 years, if our current P525 was...

    If my 16 LC door jamb sticker states that.... GVWR is 7385lb GAWR fr...3595lb rear...4300lb Why not just inflate the KO2s to satisfy the loading values for GVWR or GAWR?
