When last did u change your PCV valve?

One theory as to why this happens: When braking and coming to a complete stop, hot pads remain in contact with hot rotors, causing spots of heat, causing warping. There has been some suggestions to roll forward slowly or a small distance to spread the heat. Automatic transmission vehicles seem...

Yes, looking for a 5th - same size wheel for the spare (not to bothered about doing 5 wheel rotation), mainly just in case i need to use the spare it is the same size wheel so i can put a matching sized tire on, like the other 4. I'm in Central Florida, so it'd be a 10/11 hour round trip (any...

also make sure that you've pressurized the valve body by shifting between D and R a couple times holding it 3 seconds each time. Do this before entering fluid temp check mode (if you are using this method). or before you shift to park and wait for it get up to temp. I found the easiest is to...

Correct. While at temp there will be a steady stream coming out, as soon as it starts to drip, ie the stream breaks and it kind flows to the side a bit, reinstall the drain plug.

Sequoia is probably the better fit for you as others have mentioned honestly, but the 200 series will make you happy and scratch that itch. Ive had a bunch of Land Cruisers, been in various SUV's, mid and full size trucks - RAM 2500 Cummins etc but there is nothing like a Land Cruiser. Yes...

Do you by chance have the spare and willing to sell along with the set of 4?

+1 for the MAF cleaning, throttle body inspection for leaks (and cleaning) and new PCV valve. I also disconnect the battery for a few hours to reset transmission learned values and I think there is a learned value related to MAF/throttle position as well which helps after cleaning all that...

I remember how good white steel rims looked on my 60 and 80 series, wondering if anyone is running white wheels on their 200 and has any pics? I found this somewhere on here i think, not even sure if these are white or it's just the lighting and 300 series I know but it got me thinking.... looks...

Saw this same code in my history, 2 days back went into the garage, started the vehicle and had 4lo and Center Diff Lock lights flashing rapidly. Drove it, turned off the vehicle and did not appear again when i restarted. Both 4lo and Center Diff actuate/engage no issues. A bit of an audible...

As part of baselining a new LX, today drained and replaced all the ATF with Valvoline WS Fully Synthetic. After a few weeks of research (there is tons of information out there on this forum and youtube etc.)... here is my story / experience doing this earlier today... I have 91k miles on the...
