    ABS Alarm Sounding with VSC TRAC/VSC Off lights and Brake lights lit

    **Resolution** Great News - It was just the REAR BRAKE FEED LINE that blew because it was rusted out (2005 LC). All other lines looked to be in very good shape. The independent shop I went to found the following codes: C1223 FAULT IN ABS SYSTEM C1252 HYDRO BOOST PUMP MOTOR FAULT C1256...

    ABS Alarm Sounding with VSC TRAC/VSC Off lights and Brake lights lit

    **Update I went out and started the rig up backed up and applied the brakes... there was ZERO Brakes... pulled forward in the driveway and I had to use the E-Brake. I popped the hood and the Brake fluid reservoir is Bone DRY. Reminder of how I got here: I was driving down a steep driveway last...

    Water Pump & Timing Belt Price

    Amazing pics - Thanks for information. I was going to have the TB & WP done tomorrow (about 10,000 miles early) but my luck the ABS Alarm sounded, and the dashboard lit up with the BRAKE/VSC/VSC OFF/ABS lights... I went out this morning and have no brakes whatsoever and just popped the hood and...

    ABS Alarm Sounding with VSC TRAC/VSC Off lights and Brake lights lit

    I did have a new Interstate battery put in on Tuesday... Though the slamming on the brakes going downhill on the ice tonight was likely the trigger I would think. I will disconnect the battery tomorrow. I am also going to head over to O'Reilly Auto Parts and borrow their ABS reader to see if...

    Real Time Help Needed. ABS, Brake and VSC light up alarm sound?

    Anavant, I have the same alarm sound going off. Did your rig throw a code? I ran my OBD doe codes and nothing appeared? Want to make sure I don't get crushed by the dealer with unnecessary work/expense. Thanks

    ABS Alarm Sounding with VSC TRAC/VSC Off lights and Brake lights lit

    Hi Guys, I was driving down a steep driveway tonight that was sheer ice... slid a good 50 feet at a 30+ degree slope. I had my foot pressed very hard on the brakes and first the red Brake light illuminated and then I dove about a mile and then the ABS, VSC TRAC & VSC OFF lights lit up with an...

    Water Pump & Timing Belt Price

    RND1 - I got another quote to compare within NH and Irwin Toyota (Laconia, NH) gave me a $1,404 quote for TB/WP.... So Grappone Toyota (Bow, NH) was at $891... Irwin Toyota was $513 Higher (58% higher)... yikes... Does everyone here feel like you have to get the WP/TB every 90,000 miles or can...

    Water Pump & Timing Belt Price

    JOFS, I just noticed your second post with the pics. Thats 100% my LC... I can tell by the front bumper! Thats awesome. Any info you can share on what not to replace would be great! Very cool you traded it in for a new LC. My wife drives a GMC Yukon and is always after my keys to drive it.

    Water Pump & Timing Belt Price

    I am currently at 173,750 miles. I went on Toyota to look at the history and there isnt any after 55,000 miles when the rig was sold to the owner before me who drove it from 58k - 170k.... I will say they had receipts for work done by previous owner but not at a Toyota Dealership.

    Water Pump & Timing Belt Price

    Hi Guys, I jut got a quote for the water pump & timing belt at Grappone Toyota in Bow, NH for $891 total (no tax in NH). They said its a 6 1/2 Hr job. What is your take on the price? And what is a fair price for the work at a Toyota dealership? The rig is a 2005 Landcruiser. Thanks

    To buy or not?

    I agree with Brizzle because I have seen his rig on his youtube channel and I would classify his rig's condition as being a 9/10 for a 2005 LC. Plus his rig was from the south and undercarriage and even his engine bay was pretty darn immaculate. I would say my rig is 7/10 on the scale and I...

    To buy or not?

    That price is high. I picked up my 2005 LC (picture in profile) for $11,750 and it had 170,000 miles on it in August (up to 173,500 as of today). Mine wasn't show room condition but I know I got a very good deal on it. I think the value on mine would be $14-$15k. For $21,000 it better be...

    DieHard Gold Battery or Interstate Mega tron plus?

    I second the Interstate MTP 27F. My 100 series had a new Super Start battery when i got it and within 4 months and this Northern New Hampshire winter this year it completely died in my driveway. Granted we ranged from 18 degrees to -20 for a solid 10 days but a brand new cheap battery was done...

    Lift & Suspension on a 2005 Land Cruiser

    That's exactly what I am finding. No one up here in New England is a Land Cruiser shop or even have any experience with them... I feel like i might as well go to a Toyota Dealership and feel good about it. Thanks for the info and any price points you can share.

    Lift & Suspension on a 2005 Land Cruiser

    Hi RND1 - I noticed that you are in the merrimack valley of Mass. Where did you get your shocks installed and coils? I am trying to figure out a good place that has worked on Land Cruisers. Did you buy the parts and then have ashop do the work? Can you give me a ballpark on the cost for your...

    Lift & Suspension on a 2005 Land Cruiser

    Thank you all for the feedback. My original shocks are toast. That’s what started me down this path. Now you all have me thinking of just going with factory shocks and maybe replace the rear coils as my driver side rear is about 1 1/2 inches lower than my passenger rear (measuring from body to...

    Lift & Suspension on a 2005 Land Cruiser

    Hi Guys, I bought a 2005 Land Cruiser a few months ago. The rig has 170,000 miles. I need to do something with the suspension... I am up here in the Lakes Region of New Hampshire and the most off road its going to go on are some forest trails/fire trails and light camping. No rocks at all. I...

    P0420 and P0430 - 2006 LC

    I bought a 2005 LC 2 months back and after 200 miles my P0430 code went off. I did the typical cheap fixes at first: New Toyota Gas cap Cleaned MAF Air Filter Every time I reset the it with my OBD, it would take 25-30 miles before the light went off and the code reappeared. Instead of doing...
