    Hard warm start after intake manifold/injector work

    Quick update for future readers - I did a smoke test, without any findings. I took my suspected injector #1 back, and sure enough it was dripping. They re-cleaned it, put it a new filter basket. They couldn't offer an explanation how that happened despite the injectors being fine initially and...

    Rodent activity in my engine bay, what to do?

    I was just about to post this up. The valley between the heads were the knock sensor and starter (and secondary air system if you have VVTI) is a common place for them to hide, nest in, and chew up the reportedly soy-bean based wiring loom that Toyota and other Japanese manufacturers use. If...

    Hard warm start after intake manifold/injector work

    Thanks @2001LC . I was hoping you would chime in after reading many of your threads in the past. I have a similar approach - everything OEM and particular about the details. Yes, the SAIP has been bypassed. I agree - 90% chance it is something I interfaced with and that should narrow down my...

    Hard warm start after intake manifold/injector work

    Hi all - hoping to get some input This is on an 06 (i.e. VVTI). Prior to the following work, I did not have this issue at all. I recently took the intake mani/plenum off to repair the knock sensor harness. While the intake manifold was off, I figured I would have the injectors serviced by a...

    03 GX, no/very little sound from radio. (ML/Nav)

    This might be a long shot - but 1.) do you get anything or is it just static-y like you aren't getting any reception - or like a CD is skipping? 2.) do you have a factory backseat flip down screen/DVD player? If so (then at least on the Toyota/JBL system in the 4R and other models) there is...

    For Sale Most recent 200 Series purchase prices

    That's what I figured and in line with what I've seen. I assumed that if those same examples were say 08-10 w/ the same mileage then the price might be in the mid-low 30's, but those cars seemingly aren't out there. My lease is also coming to an end. I guess if I can't find an LC, then I may...

    For Sale Most recent 200 Series purchase prices

    Hi Guys - Started looking at 100 Series LC's and the GX, but am thinking now it might be worth moving up to a 200 Series for not a large price gap. While I've seen some relatively clean LX's for ~30K and under 100K (70-85K miles), I can't seem to find any LC's in that same range. I...
