Thanks @CharlieS and @Malleus , great tips, I’ll take off the crossmrmber/support, get the bolts off and see if the welded nut threads are still good. If not, I’ll follow your guys’ advice for the next steps. Thanks again.

I think two of the bolts holding the hood lock assembly in were over torqued and possibly stripped. The bolts spin freely, but the bolts don’t come out. I can feel the bolts spinning in the other side when I put my finger there. I tried using a flathead screw driver as a wedge at the front of...

Thanks for all of the great help. I was initially confused since my hood latch works well so I was not sure any function of the truck was damaged. I was changing the headlight bulbs and noticed a cut cable near the battery, wrapping around to the rear of the truck. After getting feedback from...

Another picture. Will investigate further later and add more info at thst time

Added a few more images. Thanks for the tip, I followed the wire around, it goes towards the firewall then loops around and looks like it loops under the fuse box and I can’t follow it afterwards. This vehicle did have an old school aftermarket analog car phone. I took off the positive cable in...

Hello, I noticed this cable that looks unplugged. Anyone what it is or where it hooks into?? The cable is circled in yellow in the pictures. It has a white plastic part and the metal wire ends in a cylinder. It’s a 1997 80 series. Thanks!

Thanks @pvchaitanya and @linuxgod , I’ll definitely let him know about the AC condensation, he probably didn’t know that dripped from there. Good call @linuxgod and @prharper , I’ll have him lube the drive shaft, good looking out, hopefully it hasn’t gotten too damaged with being dry.

Wow, I just talked to him and he thinks this is it. He checked and something leaked in the cooler. Amazing, thanks for the great insight @Battleship ! Case closed it seems haha

Hello, my relative has a 2013 LX570 and it looks like it’s leaking clear sticky fluid under the truck where the passenger seat is. Here is a picture of where he thinks it’s coming from (pictures are pointing towards the front of the vehicle). Any ideas what it could be? Anything to worry about...

Not sure. Let me know what you think is a fair price. I’ll also message you. Thanks

Anyone have a non-functioning or used 200 series 2008 or 2009 head unit they want to get rid of?

https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a60175396/connected-cars-driver-data-tracking-insurance/ Insurances are getting data from many manufacturers of connected cars these days. Would probably need to look closely at the terms of service agreement to see if Toyota/Lexus is also doing this.

Thanks for the insight! This lx470 is located at an independent used car dealership a bit far from me so I didn’t want to make the drive unless I thought it was legit by the pictures. Looks like some weird stuff is going on, maybe they left an old oil filter in that location to catch oil leaks...

I was looking at an ad for an LX470 in the Midwest and here are the undercarriage pictures. What are the items I circled in white? Are they normal or broken? Also how bad do you guys think the rust is? Thanks

Looks nice! You would probably need to upload more undercarriage pictures if you want a better estimate of value from Mud members. Interior looks great though!
