    Coolant leak behind rear tire?

    This looks and feels like coolant. Could it be? From behind the rear tire? 2021, 67k. I don't yet know the systems on this truck like i did on previous land cruisers

    Door frame sticker, reducing load capacity, due to mods on my truck...???

    I just noticed this sticker above my tire pressure sticker, not sure why I didn't notice it before. Possibly put there by the Grand Rapids dealer during an oil change? Or maybe Discount Tire put it there when I had new tires put on? It has my VIN at the top. Mods are an ARB bumper, removed...

    Windshield washer fluid?

    I hate mixing fluids, wonder what Mr. Toyota put in the bottle? I could run it all out and start with something more magical for cold winter slush use. Seems like dealers all sell aftermarket for replenishables, I've had them try to sell me green coolant.

    Radiator cap venting fluid?

    44k on a 2021, starting to do my own oil changes and noticed crusty white residue that looks like radiator fluid venting. Doesn't seem normal, overflow should go out through the reservoir. This is in Michigan, mostly run on the highway, no high temps. The reservoir is full. It is possible...

    Refilling wiper blades with new Toyota rubber

    Rubber refill is available online, Toyota part numbers, but I can't find which part number for a '21 200. Passenger side rubber has ripped at 40k. I prefer not to replace the whole blade assemblies. I've ordered and used Toyota rubber refills on my boat windshield wipers, works great.

    First oil change! Questions...

    Dip stick, seems like it should go in further, and I'm 1/2-qt low after adding 8.5 qts. The O-ring doesn't want to go in past the opening, but it looks like it should. I have the Jowett filter housing, so I think I don't need the small O-ring. I used to have a Lexus where the small O-ring...

    When was the last 200 built? U.S. 200?

    Mine is 10/20, just curious.

    Can I force my broken recirc flap to fresh air and lock it there?

    Almost a year old, three trips to the dealer for free oil changes. Cold weather arrived, and I can't seem to clear my foggy windows. Opened the cover and watched the recirc flap, it does not move when I select recirc/fresh air. I need to get it fixed, would like to wait until next oil change...

    2021 LC availability?

    Getting much more attention with the new bumper. Hearing people want a new LC but nobody has any to sell. Are dealers unable to get them now? @Eric Sarjeant had a listing of available LC at one time, I'm not finding it, thought it was in the classifieds?

    2021 LC ARB bumper install

    Just getting things unwrapped and organized, and reading instructions over. Planning to hit this tomorrow morning and need to get it done in one day, this shop will be bustling with people on Tuesday. I've installed ARB bumpers on my 80 and 100, this will be a little more tedious it looks...

    Mud-friendly source for bull bar? And other bumper questions...

    Bought my previous ARB bumpers from @sleeoffroad, been waiting patiently for them to be in stock, but time is running out. I prefer ARB, and must have full hoops around the headlights. I've hit seven deer and still running 175 miles each way to work from Michigan to O'Hare. Big trip coming up...

    Will 2021 LC hold value?

    Buying a new LC seems like a really bad idea. When I look at them used, they are losing about $10k/yr in value for the first 5+ years. I would of course be buying for the long-haul, several previous LC went over 250k, but things change. Lots of reasons why I might have to sell long before I...

    Tweaking levelling to increase towing capacity?

    I chatted with a dealer about buying the 2021 LC they have incoming, mentioned towing my boat was over capacity. He said they can increase the towing capacity by increasing the leveling through software. Sounds questionable, what do you guys say? I'd be towing my 10,000+ pound boat about five...

    VSC TRAC, VSC OFF lights on...?

    This spring my '03 4R sat for months in the garage, battery died. When I got it running these lights came on. They go out when it is restarted, but come on with first movement of the wheels. ABS sensor possibly? No mice in my garage, they would have chewed into the dog food and bird food...

    ARB Bumper install instructions? '03 LC

    I'm looking and not finding instructions, not on the ARB site or Slee where it is coming from. Hopefully I'm just missing it. Bumper arrives Friday, the day I take my family north, deeper into deer country. I've hit seven deer, would really like to get this installed quickly for this trip...

    Bull Bar onto '13 LX 570: how hard?

    I've been poking around the 200 forum, while poking around online for my next rig. This would be a highway cruiser mostly, but needs to carry a bull-bar for the high amount of deer on my long commute. I've hit seven deer so far, and see plenty on my night runs, alive and smashed. I think a...

    Ignition switch broken...help?!

    When I put the key in, it turns freely through the normal range without doing anything. The door chime sounds with the door open, but no mechanical resistance and nothing turns on. The steering wheel lowers with the key in like normal. The steering wheel isn't locked from turning with the key...

    Stationary Recumbent - any suggestions?

    Wife is going (more) crazy not being able to run. She was told biking would be good for her broken foot, but still can't put any weight on it. Any. Every physical therapist we run into suggests things that require weight on the foot, so I'm just clarifying why recumbent. So I suggest...
