Hi All,
a group of middle eastern has some discussion installing LS400 fan clutch on lx470, though it is more expensive than lx470 oem but thay said its quieter, and lighter on the truck which makes it worth it, however, summer is coming up and i dont wanna have heat issue here with 120F...
since it started to get cold here, i have 2 dead tpms not reading pressure and light has been flashing nonstop. i know it's possible (cheaper) to replace 5 sensors battery than replacing all 5. (35X5=175 plus labor) whereas replacing the batteries will cost me 30$.
Has anybody done this?
Hey mudder.
My lx has 345k now and all maintenance is up to date except this p0430 is keeping popping every two weeks or so. I am 80% sure is not the o2 sensors because I replaced them 2 years ago , denso (when I had same code and disappeared for like a year) nor it’s the cat converter. This...
in the past 2-3 years I have been adding about 350m of coolant every 3-4 months. and I have been trying to find out if I had a leak somewhere, I checked:
-All Hoses
-Ts connection
-Radiotor
- radiator cap and thermo replaced 4 months ago
no sign of red coolant leak visible to naked eye...
hello
I am attaching the sound for my truck, is this manifold leak? this is the driver side and I may have it on both sides.

hello Mudder,
Since I bought my lx in 2014, came with 2 sets of rims, OEM and 20 inches from Tundra. PO had 20" set for winter and 18 inches in the summer. since then, I had the 20" rims on the truck and never used the 18 yet.
I shipped the truck to Middle East and we have all kind of speed...
when releasing the brake pedal , there is a thud just like the driveshaft thud. and yes i am sure it not the driveshaft its brake related, anybody experienced this?
front and rear brake pads and, routers serviced 2 months ago
i am wondering if the myth of my childhood for keeping the AC turned on once the car starts will cause any issue to the truck or not!!!!!!
the reason i am asking because i would like to start the truck remotely and have the AC cools off the car before entering.. Good or bad idea?
anyone experienced the throttle delay on the truck?
there is a small time gap between you pressing the pedal and engine pumping out more power
mine has it and bothersome. when I stop and go, i have to feather it to not have the lag/thud when it engages.
this has nothing to do with greasing...
is there a simple way to disconnect the fog light from high beam.
Meaning, when u use the high beam, fog lights turns off; I don’t want them to be turned off when I use high beam!
whenever i release my foot from the pedal and hit it back or go over bump , there is delayed engagement creates clunk (feels like something re-engaging). i have greased all the shafts and u joints also replaced hub flange recently.
i am sure you guys have experience this, but has anybody know...
this is my 3rd atf flush now and I am facing delay engagement in reverse. I don’t understand why it’s happening after the flush!!! Never had it before.
I flushed it after feeling a thud when slowing down and I thought flushing it would solve the problem but made it worse.
Used 12 quarts ws...
I lately experienced thud when i come to complete stop with little hard brake.
Seems like from second gear to first.
I added and checked the ATF level with correct atf temperature and lubed the driveshaft and u joints. Big improvement but I can feel the thud every now and then. I flushed the...
since I live in very hot climate and humidity ( reaches 130 F and humidity 80%)where sometimes I get stuck in traffic and temperature rise up to the point where AC shut off ( happen once). I was thinking of a way which I can use the ac water-drops and extend the hose to let it drop on radiator...
when i connect my iphone to call in my LX, i only hear the sound from driver side only.
is it suppose to be like that?
is there a way to spread the sound to all speakers?
Thanks
i had the truck on cruise at 70 mph when a little thud/ hesitation occurred. instantly, fuel gauge dropped below 'E'. I pulled over i checked under the hood, opened the gas cap, there was no smell of gas. by the time i got back in, the fuel gauge was normal "half tank" then drove off.
we had...
after reading so many Toyota forums regarding my issue with shudder between 30-40 miles, all agreed it's the torque converter, even Toyota shop specialist said so.
Last week, I had no issue whatsoever, decided to do timing belt, water pump replacement, and tensioners and had top of the radiator...
i will be doing a complete flush for my lx 07 (second time) and first time , I didn't replace AT screen/ filter.
Read few threads but no one mentioned screen/ filter replace!!
Should I buy the screen and replace it or no?
Quick question it concerns me.
I just replaced TBelt water pump..etc
And I had leak on top of the radiator so I asked the mechanic to remove it all to have it fixed, while doing it I lost the ATF which in the radiator and Little in the hose.
Should I be concerned?
Should I add more atf? It's...
