    '06 Immobilizer/ Horn Issue

    So it has been a while since I was last on the board. Family, work, and winter have prioritized time and my '06 has been sitting since October. I last fired it up about a month ago. I tried to do this again today, but the battery was dead. I pulled the terminals, set the battery on the charger...

    RTH: No Power to Evap Canister

    Hello MUDer's. I have a request for some assistance. Back in February I had rodent damage to my main engine harness from squirrels. After dealing with insurance, I took the truck (2009 LC200) to the local Toyota dealer for repair. I am friendly with the lead tech who is one of the few people I...

    Rodent Damage - 2008 LC200

    I alternate driving my modded 100 series and the 200. I last drove the 200 five days ago. Yesterday I got into the vehicle and was greeted by the PCS warning light. PCS? What the heck is that? Since my wife and I were headed out, we took her car while I searched Mud for a solution. I found...

    Towing a Wrecked 100 on a Dolly/Flatbed Trailer

    So my friend sent me a picture of a truck and informs me that I might be interested. Upon opening the text, I nearly spat out my hot coffee.

    Another Wheel Option - Fifteen52 Traverse HD in 17x8.5

    https://fifteen52.com/collections/cast-wheels/products/traverse-hd-block-bronze?variant=15113775120450 Well, these are intriguing. I have Rock Warriors underneath my 100, but these may look even better on the 200. The 4.75" backspacing may pose a problem though.

    Gathering Information: 200 Series Brake Booster Function / Longevity

    Hello 200 owners. My previous experience is with the 100 series platform. I recently picked up a 2009 LC after searching for a good condition early series model. After my first week of driving, it is coming to my attention that the booster appears to cycle on and off more frequently than on...

    2UZ Upper Coolant Leak Diagnostic, R&R, and Repair

    We've had several months of rain and now bitter cold on the East, so I've lagged behind on opening the hood except for oil changes. About two weeks ago I noticed white smoke escaping from the exhaust after shutdown. I know this can be a head gasket issue, but these are rare for this platform...

    Input Request, FJ62 Version...

    I came across a 1990 close to my work and stopped by to check it out. CarGurus - 1990 Toyota Land Cruiser 4WD - $9,250 The price is significantly lower than listed as the seller states he wants to keep it toward the enthusiast crowd. The truck has been repainted at some point in the early...

    Diesel input requested...

    I found a 1990 BJ73 with 191,xxx from Portugal. Apparently it is legally imported and listed for sale in Maryland. I am considering it but would like feedback from any members with diesel experience as to things to look out for and also any hurdles to registration that such a vehicle might pose.

    Broke Down in Ft. Morgan -> HIH7

    After an 1800 mile drive from Maryland, my truck is sidelined outside of Erlich Toyota in Ft. Morgan, CO. Filled up the tank at a Sinclair, ran about 50 miles then threw a P0300 code and codes for cylinders 2,4,6, and 8. Truck lost power then ran really rough. I replaced a coil on the side of...

    Does anyone have a spare LabRak rear CB mount? I thought I'd give the wanted section a try before fabricating my own. Thanks!

    Air Conditioning Line Repair - An Install and Review of Dorman 800-673

    My rear 5/16" condenser hardline sprung a pinhole leak at a bend, effectively venting my r134a and creating a bigger hole in the ozone layer. The replacement hardline is about 5 feet long and fairly expensive. I thought I'd try a Dorman 5/16" line splice kit and cut out the hardline to isolate...

    Tech Discussion: Using Blue Devil Products as a Temporary Fix

    A topic of discussion for the Mud brain trust, what are your thoughts on using stop leak products on gasket and seal leaks? I am in no way affiliated with any such company, but I have personally used Blue Devil products on a 336,000 mile Volvo 940 with a really bad oil pan gasket leak. I will...

    Thinking about going back in time...

    ...From a 2006 to a 2000 that is. My friend has an impeccably maintained 2000 LC with 160k miles that he has owned since 2005. I just turned 200k on my 2006. Mileage is not really a concern for me. He has had his timing belt and water pump done at Toyota within the last year, along with a new...

    Rock Warriors and Ice Buildup

    During the recent East Coast snow I had the opportunity to make an observation for those of you still looking for the TRD 17" Rock Warriors for your 100's. They pack with ice worse than any wheel I've ever used. I realize that a simulated bead lock ring will gather some ice and slush, but the...

    How To: Wheel Speed Sensor Replacement

    I just had to do this procedure on my 2006 after the VSC, ABS, and TRAC lights went off. I had my mechanic check the codes and the right front sensor registered an error. You can check the Ohm's for the sensor, apparently they should read around 1.0, in my case, nothing, so new sensor it was...

    Best procedure to tackle misfire codes?

    My new to me 2006 exhibits hesitation on hard acceleration but rolls along happily at highway speeds. I am averaging 12.6 mpg with conservative mixed driving (a little low even by LC standards) on 87. My CEL/MIL is off. I have a high idle at initial startup that normalizes when restarting warm...
