    Finally got to redo my interior

    OTSWolf, the truck looks great! Looking at the products page on Lseat.com I don't see the center console cover, which you have. Did you order that part separately or am I missing something?

    Recurring P0430 code, seems associated w/ low fuel tank levels?

    Been a while since I posted, I've put about 20K on since I purchased my 06 LC almost 2 yrs. ago, including 2 trips from SoCal to Montana (one of which was towing a 1,500 lb. trailer full of camping gear) and 1 trip to Seattle, and a few trips dove hunting in Yuma in 100+ temps. In those 2 yrs...

    From Sequoia to LC - questions

    Test drive an 06 or 07 before you settle on an earlier model. I came from an 03 4Runner, which was pre VVTI, and my wife drives an 05 Sequoia w/ VVTi. With the 4Runner being a lighter rig, I felt like the pre VVTI V8 was plenty of power. Before purchasing my 06 LC, I test drove an 05, which...

    Getting code P0430 in my 2007 LX470

    I had the same code 7 or so months ago with my '06 LC. There's a good amount of discussion on here about P0430, most of which, as I recall from my research indicated that the fix was most often found by replacing the downstream sensor. That's the one in the CAT, not the exhaust manifold. I...

    Overlanding seqouia

    In my experience, the best way to start warm and stay warm while in a sleeping bag is to fill a Nalgene, or similar watertight container full of hot water (a small backpacking stove/pot works great, is cheap, and takes up little space), and place one or two of them in you sleeping bag prior to...

    P1442, P1445 - Secondary Air Intake Advice Needed

    Not sure how long you've had your LC or how many miles are on it, I've had mine just over a year and done all the minor/moderate Preventative Maintenance work myselft (new rotors/pads, replaced AHC fluid, engine coolant, thermostat, HEATER TEES!!!!!!, fuel pump, fuel filter, spark plugs, etc.)...

    P1442, P1445 - Secondary Air Intake Advice Needed

    I have an 06 Cruiser, and 05 Sequoia, both of which are known to have the Secondary Air Pump, or Secondary Air System (essentially a smog pump) go out. It is a problem with all of the VVTi 4.7 Toyota vehicles (Tundra, 4Runner, LC, Sequoia, LX 470, etc.) The pump went out on my Sequoia and I did...

    A/C Evaporator cleaner

    Itsthecapsyear, I went through the same thing when I first got my LC. In my experience, the a/c evaporator cleaner will be of little value to you at this point. The leak from under the a/c evaporator box is being caused by an old and shrunken rubber/foam gasket/seal. If you want that little...

    06 Cruiser, P0430 fixed

    Biga27110, sorry for the delayed response. I did not see your question about the part # till today. The Denso part # for the rear O2 sensor that I purchased is 234-4209. This is for the "Universal" O2 sensor, not the "OE" sensor. As I recall, the part description on the "OE" style indicated...

    06 Cruiser, P0430 fixed

    Replacing the rear sensor, the one in the cat. on the passenger side fixed the recurring P0430 code. I replaced it 3-4 weeks ago, w/ a few hundred miles driven since and have not had the code return. I got a Denso sensor through Amazon for about $55. I can't recall the Denso part number right...

    06 Cruiser, P0430 fixed

    Well, I thought that was too good to be true. About a week after my CEL cleared, after adding a bottle of Chevron fuel system cleaner to the gas tank, the CEL returned w/ the same P0430 code. I tried swapping the rear O2 sensors today to see if my P0430 turned into a P0420, but I found that...

    06 Cruiser, P0430 fixed

    In the next week or so I'll try and make the same drive where I first encountered the stalling problem. If nothing else, it will allow me to drive hard and get the cats good and hot. If the issue repeats, I'll for sure be replacing the fuel pump which I will try and do myself. I'm sure there...

    06 Cruiser, P0430 fixed

    2001LC- I didn't indicate, but now that you mention it some of the inside plugs, I don't remember which, were not loose per se, but were not as tight as the 1, 2, 7, and 8 plugs. As to discoloration on the ceramic portion of the plugs, I don't recall and I've since thrown them out. In...

    06 Cruiser, P0430 fixed

    Another update- The boot on the ignition coil which I cracked by trying to press it onto the loosened spark plug in order to retrieve the spark plug did cause an issue. The result of the cracked boot was a misfire that would sometimes throw a code, and sometimes not throw a code. In trying to...

    06 Cruiser, P0430 fixed

    Another update- I went through the the plugs and coils today. The coils looked good, although I did put a tear in the end of one of the rubber boots when trying to retrieve a loosened spark plug. Rookie mistake. Should have just used the magnet as I did after the mishap. Anybody know if I...

    06 Cruiser, P0430 fixed

    Update- After making it home from the mountains last Monday, and driving to work with no symptoms Tuesday day, it threw a CEL on Wed. w/in a couple miles after leaving the house. The code was P0430 "Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold Bank 2." Bank 2 is passenger side, right? I'm not...

    06 Cruiser, P0430 fixed

    This will be my introductory, Please Help Me Thread. Well, we made it home. Luckily we were car-pooling. My brother got the wives and kids to the sledding area, and by the time he arrived with a new fuel filter and some new hand tools (last time I go anywhere without a basic set of tools)...

    06 Cruiser, P0430 fixed

    Hi all, I’m currently on the road with wife and kids. After climbing a mountain I lost power. Engine starting idling rough and then died as I limped into a gas station. It would crank but not start. After letting sit for a while it started fine. Turned off then tried to start again and...
