    Complete power failure while driving in my new Land Cruiser 100

    I would be curious to see if tightening down the loose battery terminals didn’t rectify the problem.

    Looking at next vehicle after my hundy.

    Given the state of the world I would be tempted to look into a Bradley. (Abrams use more fuel than even a hundy.)

    Noise on front right when steering right

    This is a longshot, but on another vehicle I have a rotational clicking while turning was caused by the brake dust shield barely touching the rotor. There is always some play in the wheel bearings such that the loading during a turn can trivially move the two into each other. Easy to fix.

    Michelin LTX AT/2 blowout

    Glad you are ok. How old was the tire? Curious to know what the event was like….with it being a rear blowout did it pull you out of your lane?

    Replace all tires?? Nail in tire sidewall- Tires just over year old

    The TireRack shaving option discussed in an earlier post was something I did not know. I looked on their website and the cost is $25-35 which seems reasonable.

    Spark plug blew out/stripped - any hope?

    Can you tell us a little about the circumstances? What were the symptoms? Was other work being done on the car when this was “noted”, or was there previous recent work that would have involved the spark plugs?

    OEM snob??? mishimoto radiator

    Looks well built! I noticed on their site that a transmission cooler is “integrated” with fittings coming from the lower tank. Not sure what that consists of… separate heat exchange coil or just a tube running through the coolant reservoir. Did you use that or keep the OEM separate coil?

    Mobil1 Synthetic ATF instead of Mobil1 5W-30 … oh bugger!

    This is the kind of event that sometimes leads to unexpected important discoveries. If your mileage suddenly jumps to 25 or a driveline clunk disappears please let us know and we’ll all do it. 😀

    1998 Land Cruiser VX Limited 16k original miles

    That is a beautiful specimen! So cool to see all the little touches we never had state side, like the headlight washers and side markers. I have always been intrigued by the mirror on the left front corner seen so frequently on overseas vehicles. Never saw one in person. It appears on this to...

    Weird leather issue

    Back in the 70's there was a famous incident in my neighborhood. A girl's Ford Maverick was totaled sitting in her driveway by a fire that started in the back seat and caught the cloth upholstery on fire. The cause was determined to be the chrome wheel of the bicycle that was in the back...

    Horn issue between relay and the physical horn

    The relay could have burnt internal contacts, some other internal source of resistance or not be pulling in all the way and possibly still click. As stated above, if you can test for continuity between the horn side positive leg of the relay and the horn you can rule out the wire. Is there any...

    1D2 Thundercloud in a Rattle Can Spray Bomb

    Was the front bumper painted a darker color or is it reflecting the light differently than the metal?

    03' Land Cruiser Navigation Control Issue

    I don’t have a solution but I do remember there being some old discussions on this forum about nav systems going wonky after battery replacement.

    heater core leak

    That is great. Please keep the forum updated on the longevity of the fix. Just curious, where were you seeing the residue you mentioned in your first post?

    Rear AC and front switch

    Have you tried deselecting “Auto” on the rear set of controls? When I do this it appears to be under control of the “Rear” button on the dash.

    Fan under driver's seat?

    Reasonable to consider that, although if it is operating on auto and coming on every time the car runs in heating season it is possible the bearings are shot. Not sure what most folks do, but I rarely have rear seat occupants and I do not have my rear controls set to “Auto”, preferring to use...

    Help needed diagnosing issues with headlights

    Following this interesting thread. When you first installed the 9012s was the light output noticeably better? I can easily see how the daytime running lights could confuse when you actually lost the lights.

    how to disconnect the factory rear camera?

    When I magnify the picture of the camera it looks like the lens is covered with white dots like it got scuffed, as well as a scuff on the upper lip of the casing. Maybe debris was there that could wipe off. Obviously not a concern as the image is apparently fine.
