    Opinions please. Looking at a possible purchase. Undercarriage questions.

    Thanks for the informed reply. I started this thread at 1:43 this morning. I should have been in bed, so I missed a couple of things in the service history. the timing cover leak was noted at about 150,000 m. Well at about 167,000 when it was being inspected for sale the leak was noted again...

    Opinions please. Looking at a possible purchase. Undercarriage questions.

    We’ve been looking for a GX460 for my wife, and I’ve found one that checks all the right boxes (color, price, mileage, etc.) except living it’s first two years in Indiana. It's a 2012 with approximately 160,000 miles, regular approximate 10,000 mile oil changes according to myLexus service...

    AC pressures within range, but no bubbles after shutting off engine.

    Thanks so much, for the quick and informative reply.

    Yeah. If I missed it in my search, oops, but I didn’t see anything about good pressure and no bubbles.

    All refrigerant was mysteriously gone after safelite replaced the windshield. No leaks, and no previous problems. I think an employee may have been upset that I required rivets, and wouldn’t let them use screws. I’ve tested and recharged the system (vacuum pump and gauges) Low side pressure is...

    Seat belt doesn’t lock at full extension

    Thank you. So the driver side not locking at full extension is correct?

    Seat belt doesn’t lock at full extension

    I just had both front seat belts repaired by Safety Restore for my wife’s LX470. They had blown pre-tensioners. I’m in the middle of installing them and the passenger side works fine. The driver’s however will not lock at full extension. Can someone please verify if this is correct or not. I...

    Airbag light blinking two codes

    I have airbag codes 64 and 74 on my wife’s ‘01 LX. I haven’t touched anything electrical. She’s just been driving like normal. Is the sensor the most likely cause with both sides showing an error or is there a common connection/connector inline between the belts and sensor that could be the...

    Looking at a low mile 2017 in the salt belt

    I’m still keeping it in mind, but would like a little more input. I agree with you, but I’ve also posted on Tundra specific sites. I’ve only gotten two responses, both saying they would buy it, but one guy is from Maryland and the other from Canada. So their opinions may be a little skewed.

    Looking at a low mile 2017 in the salt belt

    Anyone have any input? As I said I know their isn’t much rust, but both my 150,000 + mile ‘96 LC and my wife’s 215,000 mile ‘01 LX have less rust without any preventative action. If I bought the truck I would feel like the first thing I needed to do was remove the rust and paint the surfaces...

    Looking at a low mile 2017 in the salt belt

    I’ve been keeping my eye out for a 2016 -2017 Tundra like I would have ordered if I had been in the market back then. I missed a 2016 with 24000 miles in southern California a couple of weeks ago. Now I’ve located a 2017 in New York set up even closer to what I would have wanted, and it only...

    Second row legroom

    I asked this as an addition to another thread, but thought I should post separately to possibly get more input. I was reading a thread from 2012, and someone posted that the 60 and then current 4Runner were about the same size. I haven’t been in an earlier 4Runner, but I am familiar with the...

    A penny for your HJ61 insight.

    I won’t have a chance to take anyone up on checking out their 60 for awhile, but hopefully I can get around to that sooner than later. I was reading a thread from 2012, and someone posted that the 60 and then current 4Runner were about the same size. I haven’t been in an earlier 4Runner, but...

    A penny for your HJ61 insight.

    Well primarily range, mpg, and the extra power for highway driving and traffic would be a plus. Also, a five speed and lockers would be nice.
