    LX470 AHC - Rear side stuck in Low

    Hi Guys, I am having 2005 LX470 and the car stuck in L only on the rear side only, the front side works fine. There are no codes and when I tried to read the rear height sensor the reading is strange. Even with the vehicle sitting at the lowest position the sensor reads 55 mm (2.1"). I opened...

    AHC just get rid

    The amount of posts here about AHC failure has led me to believe that this is an expensive component that is not necessary and can be easily sidelined. Note I work my cruisers in rough environments and the simpler the better

    Advise on LX470

    I’ve recently started looking into the 100 series as I’ve found a cheap LX470 in my area. I own a JZ swapped drift car so I’m pretty mechanically inclined, but those are simple, and so I have dove into learning about the AHC and whatnot. I’d be using the LX to tow a small trailer with a lawn...

    AHC bleeding

    Replacing my right rear shock and wondering how to bleed the system after the install. Do you use the bleeder at the accumulator and/or the one at the globe(s)? I would appreciate any advice.

    AHC "Topping Out" or something in High

    I googled, I promise! 2003 LX, 250k My AHC is completely overhauled (10k miles ago), new globes and fluid, TBs, spring spacers, neutral pressures, the works, rides great. Until I shift into high... No matter the surface, I get sudden jarring noises from the rear over the smallest of bumps. I...

    Any AHC nerds feel like chiming in?

    I have been through AHC service several years ago, and have been putting it off doing it again for quite some time, but some problems have forced my hand. It started with the rear end rising higher than I have ever seen it rise when I would start the car. It would settle into its proper level...

    AHC fluid replacement

    I own since new a 2009 LC200 fitted with AHC. I never (touch wood) had any issues with it, but I was wondering if it made sense to plan a replacement of the hydraulic fluid. I know Toyota declares it good for the lifetime of the vehicle, but much in the same way they do for the gearbx oil, I...

    New AHC question, maybe…

    So I have read the epic amount of info on the AHC and its problems, but this is a fairly rare one, I think. 2003 LX470. I have the flashing OFF light, but the AHC, and the on/off button still work fine. It’s strange, I start the engine, the OFF light starts flashing, but if you hit H or L from N...

    AHC Rattling

    I’ve been trying to diagnose an undercarriage rattle for a bit. I’v suspected it’s related to the AHC system for a while. I just discovered what I think is crucial information: the rattling stops when I put the AHC in high mode. When in neutral, I hear a hollow rattling/clanking when I drive...

    AHC Failure - drivable? Repair shop advice?

    I've been through a million of these over the years, so I apologize for creating another. But it's difficult to find answers to specific issues/questions. My AHC has failed - stuck in the flashing OFF now, code is C1762 - abnormal oil pressure for pump. My front height sensors are at -2" and...

    TB Re-index questions on 04 LX470 with AHC

    Just recently installed a Ironman front bumper with a Bandland APEX 12K winch, and then finishing up the refreshment of the front suspension, including new UCA, new bushing for LCA/AHC shock and so on. Having gone through some of those existing AHC/TB posts, I realize I may have to deal with...

    AHC, here we go again, 2007 lx470 190k c1718 and c1713

    After 3+ years the AHC is striking again. On a short 15 min trip this morning I felt the rear end suddenly very stiff right away out of the driveway jarring the vehicle over small bumps, about 2 miles later the AHC off light started flashing. Upon arrival to my destination I found the rear end...

    Had my first AHC Issue today (2013 LX570)... Brrr, it's cold

    I'm a big fan of AHC and have always maintained the system myself on my lX470 and now LX570 vehicles. Today, I had my first real hiccup in my AHC history and it made me wonder a bit about the chemistry of AHC fluid and the rubber (is it rubber?) membranes in our AHC globes. It's getting a bit...
