Just trying to post on a relevant thread.
We are going to check out a LX470 this weekend and I am new to the AHC world. All I know is the system tends to fail and most people swap it out with a normal setup
Q : If the system is no longer working, does the vehicle still drive and handle OK?
Q : The salesman said he pressed the button the up and down control, the light flashed a bunch and nothing appeared to be happening. Safe to say the system is not functioning properly?
They want $9k with 220k miles on a 1999 LX470. Spendy, but maybe worth it.
FWIW I spent the weekend wheeling with senior Toyota development engineers at Overland Expo East and they told me to keep my AHC.
I have a 2006 LC w/165k, it's still working fine, and I like it.
