***UPDATE***
After 2 weeks of refilling the reservoir every morning to the Full line I went through almost a gallon of fluid and then it stopped dropping. Drove it for another 2 weeks and it held steady. I was scheduled to have my mechanic perform a full baseline and investigate it and just got...
If it turns out to be the Valley Plate leak, any other maintenance I should do that would save on labor? I've got 178,000 miles and most everything is still original except the newish radiator?
I’ve not heard of this on cruisers… but I think either you can see a problem when you open up the engine oil cap or the radiator cap. In my case both look totally normal. But I’m not very mechanically inclined either.
So, both times I refilled when engine was still warm. Yesterday I refilled to the F when warm and after about 5 hours sitting it was down about midway between the F and L. I let it sit overnight and it was down to the L (pictured above). But it appears to have stopped dropping. Engine is now...
I was already planning on taking the 570 in for a full tune up and baseline. Was going to do water pump and thermostat, radiator and hoses ( if needed), heater T’s, serp belt and tensioner, idler pulley, fan support bracket and heater hoses, along with spark plugs and any other worn belts.

So I noticed 2 weeks ago that my wife’s LX570 coolant overflow reservoir only had about a half inch in the bottom. It’s never overheated or had the temp gauge elevated - although we’ve only owned it 3-4 months. It’s a 2014 with 170,000 miles.
PPI was done at a Toyota dealership with an...
They are delivering it back to our house 2.5 hours away from the dealership after the recall so they will have to fill it up. I'll make sure and ask about the gasket.
LX570 is going in for the Fuel Pump recall. Lexus advisor asked if there was anything else we wanted done while they were working on it and I was not sure if there were any other "while you're in there" maintenance items that make sense to have done?
In the market for a clean, 2013-2014 LX570 with between 80k and 130k miles. Well taken care of 1 or 2 owner with good maintenance history. Any color exterior with beige interior preferred. Please send my way if you have one or know of one for sale.
Well, since you asked. I'm currently, casually looking for my 4th cruiser. The crazy market has dropped quite a bit on these. My local craigslist and Facebook is flooded with LC's and LX's for sale that have been listed for weeks or months with continual price drops. I'd say your price is right...
Any other ways to mount these other than buying brand new trim pieces since I just paid to have these refinished? Would 3m trim adhesive tape be an option?
Thanks! I just need the clips. I just had the mouldings repainted. The little clips slide into the body and the the moulding slides over those clips. Is there a way to just buy the clips?
Yes I've read that thread. My paint shop is saying that the bumper paint looks to be different on the 40th anniversary model compared to the standard 1997 Land Cruiser, but they can't find any reference for what the actual paint color is. Just trying to find out if anyone knows what the actual...
