I just took it out and noticed that the AC was in fact on. I turned it off and drove around for about 10 minutes and when turning off didn't have any gurgling.

2002 lx470 155,000 miles. Recently seem to have developed a gurgle behind the dash after full warm up (heater core I am assuming). Far as I can tell this only happens after I turn off the engine after it has been fully heated though it is possible that it is making the noise when driving but I...

Will double check hub splines. You mean the c clips on the end of CVs?

The giant jet powered penis isn't until Wednesday. :)

2002 lx470 149,000 miles. Stanton Iowa. Driving down the road today straight and smooth and suddenly something went "not right". Some odd wearing (though not grinding) sound from around the front diff that got dramatically louder with any speed- drove home about 2 miles at less than walking...
