    Thermostat stays closed after idle 30mins

    No I don’t think it’s overheating as the temperature gage stays normal. I was waiting the coolant to circulate to the return hose to the radiator while I have a funnel full of coolant attached to the radiator. I was anticipating the amount of coolant in the funnel to reduce as I lost about 1-2...

    Thermostat stays closed after idle 30mins

    Just replaced heater Ts. I was going to top/burp coolant to replace what was lost. But it seems the thermostat just does not open even after 30mins of idling with heater on most of the time. Is this normal? The thermostat was replaced new about 30k miles ago with timing belt and the water...

    #3, the windshield seal. Mine looks the same as yours. I have been driving like that for 20+k miles with no issues. It does not become looser.

    Oil Pump Leaking - Post TB Service?

    While I was doing my timing belt job. I accidentally took one bolt of the oil pump off. And I found it after a few steps. You can tell the position of the water pump bolt and the oil pump bolt are very close. I was able to reinstall the oil pump bolt based on FSM torque specs.

    LOL. I did not have a chance to do the Farwell trail. But we drive a bit on the buffalo pass and that was quite a fun drive.

    Front end clunk when the truck fully stopped, foot feels it coming from the brake padel.

    Maybe I am mistaking, but can we just tight the bolt of the front bushing? I see the bolt is in the frame and there is still room to let the bolt go in.

    Front end clunk when the truck fully stopped, foot feels it coming from the brake padel.

    I have been noticing my truck develop a clunk feeling/sound in the last 5,000 miles. When the truck comes to a full stop, I can feel the clunk feeling/sound from the brake padel. Most of the time, it comes when I start to release the brake padel. Sometimes it comes right after I depress the...

    Torsion bar adjustment bolt completely wrecked on a rust free vehicle.

    @IndroCruise Thanks so much for the detailed reply. Yes, my LX470 AHC is functional. I did not have much resistance when I turned the torsion bar bolts on both sides. I turned the driver side bolt to reduce the AHC pressure. The turns on the PS are aiming to level the front end as I recently...

I had turned the DS clockwise 4 turns about 10k miles ago and turned the PS clockwise 4 turns about 1k miles ago with the wheels...
