    The non-VVTi engines are non-interference.

    What have you done to your 100 Series this week?

    Big week for my 2000. I am the original owner and have put nearly 260K miles on her. Plan on having her another 20 years and 250K miles. Had the following done, all with OEM parts: Timing belt, water pump, pulleys and tensioners, cam and crank seals, etc. Radiator and all hoses - it still had...

    What have you done to your 100 Series this week?

    Looks great. I powder coated my wheels more than 10 years ago and they have held up great. Also run KO2s. They have been a great all-around tire.

    Best place to buy Timing Belt kit

    I am sure that this is a stupid question, but I just want to double-check. I am starting to gather parts for my upcoming timing belt service. Is everything that the AISIN TKT-021 kit comes with (belt, water pump, tensioners, idler, etc.) the same as Toyota OEM?

    Best replacement radiator for the money today...

    I am going to be replacing my original radiator with a Toyota Mexico/global spec (part# 16400-50360) soon in my 2000. I have always used the Toyota Long Life Red Coolant that I dilute 50/50 with distilled water. I know that Toyota switched over to the Super Long Life Pink coolant in 2002 or so...

    Toyota Dealer March 2022 Major Discounts

    Too bad that they took 2 months to tell you that they were not going to fulfill your radiator order. I would personally prefer to buy a radiator locally, but if it is packaged correctly then there should not be much of a problem with shipping it. Obviously, Serra Toyota of Decatur has shipped...

    High Mileage AHCs - Hydraulic Success Stories

    My 2000 LX has ~ 255K miles and the AHC has been flawless - knock on wood. I do partial AHC fluid exchanges fairly regularly and then a flush every few years. I like the ride much more than the 2005 LC that I had and hope to maintain it for another 250K miles.

    Failed smog (Cali.) ??

    Just went through the same thing with my 2000 with 250K miles here in Southern California. I replaced my battery a couple of months ago and went in for a smog check last month. I probably had only 200 miles on the new battery. I failed the OBD2/Catalyst part of the smog check. I have never had a...

    Toyota Dealer March 2022 Major Discounts

    I am still waiting on my order from Serra from March 20. I get that they are buried in orders, but the lack of communication is very frustrating.

    Post your high-mileage 100-series!!!

    Not super high mileage, but still a significant number for my 2000 LX. I am the original owner. Hope to have it for another 20 years and 250K miles.

    Go Long! Any advice for a cross-country drive in the Hundy?

    I know that somebody has already mentioned this, but make sure that your spark plugs are properly tightened down. I just made a cross country trip and I had a spark plug back out on my way home. Had to replace a coil and have the damaged threads repaired with a Time-Sert. I change my spark...

    Grand Junction, CO Mechanic Recs?

    Was driving home on a road trip from St Louis to Southwen California and my LX470 broke down. The check engine light went on. I took off the plastic engine cover and could hear a loud “clacking” from the top end of the engine - near the oil cap. Having it towed to the dealer in Grand Junction...

    Poll on total brake failure in 100 series

    Unfortunately, I have a trip that I have to take and needed to get my truck fixed immediately, so I had my mechanic change out the entire Brake Booster Assembly - part #4705060041. I am already back on the road. Is there a much of a market for my old assembly? Have not had the time to see if...

    Poll on total brake failure in 100 series

    Thanks. Not sure what would have happened if I was going 60 MPH or going down a steep grade. It all happened within a mile or two, driving driving 25 MPH or so. I was in a residential area. The warning lights and an annoying alarm came on. The brakes worked fine. Hoping that it was just a bug...

    Poll on total brake failure in 100 series

    I just had my brakes fail on my 2000 LX470 with 236,000 miles. I am the original owner and all maintenance has been done religiously. Southern California car its whole life, so no corrosion.
