I spent months trying to find a place that doesn’t have ridiculously large minimum order for 2/0 automotive grade cable. Plus they have not had the stock issues that most other places have been experiencing with automotive grade cable. Just wanted to mention them here so someone else may be...

That's why god made motorcycles.

Due to recurring file access issues, I had to restart the chat. This second exchange with ChatGPT is much cleaner than my first exchange since I had an idea of where the conversation would head. https://chatgpt.com/share/676bafaa-5a08-8000-a071-be623549714b As with almost everything else I...

I'm having trouble getting a clean export of the transcript and have used up my 20 minute break from festivities. I'll work on this later tonight or this week. Long story short: just tell ChatGPT the problem you are experiencing, ask which sensors it wants recorded, and then upload the data...

My awesome wife gave me an xtool diagnostic device for Christmas earlier this week. An old friend of mine who is a mechanic and I have been playing around with it and ChatGPT. The results are very promising. I posted this earlier about observing marginally acceptable fuel trim for my 06 LC...

That is my understanding, too. OP, given the timing of your using of a system that locks out 5th, your recollection that 5th definitely was locked out at that time, and a short time later 5th being locked out all the time, it probably would warrant a little time looking into how 5th is locked...

Size of the large dog: 100 lbs Third row definitely out, second row likely removed (may be nice to keep the single seat. What’s wrong with current options? For all I know, nothing. I am starting my search later this week, beyond searching this site for a discussion of this topic from the dog...

I plan on finally adding a shelf/platform system this spring. I am working on narrowing down my options. I figured the need to transport one large dog (somewhere other than the passenger seat) may serve to narrow my options further than any other requirement I can think of. Therefore, this is...

@2001LC Quick response to the easy questions as I sit in a corner at a party being anti-social. I'll follow up with more information later. My Land Cruiser is a 2006 with 175,000 miles. The only other codes were the 4 codes that I have seen several people claim are associated with problems...

@2001LC My LC is a 2006. What effect, if any, would a clogged catalytic converter have on fuel trims? It’s entirely possible my catalytic converter was fouled during a couple impromptu meetings that took place in my LC at site inspections where the only thing the parties could agree on that it...

Bank 1 LTFT increases during the same period but the increase is much less (.5 or less). I also note that the LTFT for bank 2 is consistently 2 to 4 higher than bank 1. The reason for my inquiry extends beyond mere curiosity. The right catalytic converter has been throwing a code for quite a...

I just replaced my canister on my 06 LC with an OEM canister from Japan purchased on eBay for $410 shipped. It has worked perfectly, and I received it in 5 days.

@fussychicken OP here. You are welcome. As a follow-up to my OP, intermittent brake noise eventually returned (accompanied by the surprisingly fast consumption of rear pads). I decided to give it one more try earlier this spring. This time, I followed each and every word of the FSM. I...

That was my first assumption, too. Out of curiosity, I dug out my dremel and ground on it for a while. No signs whatsoever of a hole. Maybe it is packed so tightly the material clogging the hole remains consistent with the metal. I'll leave it to soak in some brake cleaner for a few days.

@2001LC your observations make perfect sense with that I observed. I did the follow-up bleed with TechSteam immediately after your method, and the dirty fluid immediately exited the bleeder when the bleed was initiated, which means it almost certainly originated in the caliper. How often do you...
