coolant

I have a 2011 LX570 with 200k miles. I was replacing a u-joint on the front drive shaft when I noticed evidence of a coolant leak. It appears to have been leaking for a while but not enough to make it to the garage floor. It's hard to see where it's coming from but I can see most of the leak...

Before I start tearing things apart I’ve been trying to pin point the leak but haven’t been able. My guess is the radiator itself that leaks once it gets to operating temps. Cause I found the leak after months and it only needed a gallon. Who has the best OEM prices? Or a link to a decent...

Hey Mudders - Feel free to tell me I'm overthinking this, it's actually what I'm hoping for! Before a camping trip last weekend I popped the hood on my 2014 and noticed the coolant reservoir was empty. Then I did what any reasonable Land Cruiser owner would do and searched this forum and...

Got a 94LC inline 6 with 335k on her. Love the truck. Unfortunately it has a once in awhile, I ate up all you coolant occurrence. Happened 2 years ago and caught it just fine. This time after about 7-10 miles down the road, she got pretty hot. Noticed it, pulled over and turned it off. I let her...

This looks and feels like coolant. Could it be? From behind the rear tire? 2021, 67k. I don't yet know the systems on this truck like i did on previous land cruisers

Dear Mudders, there might won't be many FZJ100 owners on this forum, but i'm trying my luck anyway! What readings do you normally get driving around in 20-30°C ambient temp. weather? the highest reading on the temp gauge I've ever seen is a tick below the mid mark (that was after 2hrs/200km...

I found another thread that covers most the topic. I dont know how to delete this thread. Sorry for the forum clutter. Thanks guys.

Yesterday I either overheated or busted a hose and all the coolant leaked out. Not really sure where to start. Whats the best way to troubleshoot coolant issue? Should I fill with water and see if theres a leak somewhere? I heard a whining noise that sounded like a belt. could that be related...

Hey all, new here. Just bought a lx470 and have noticed I'm losing coolant. Can anyone give me some more info on what I need to do here? I know I need to replace that hose probably or at least the ring. But what's going on with the bit going into the engine itself, fixable? Or replace that...

I noticed by accident some coolant deposits on one of the tee's so I ordered the metal ones when doing the timing belt. One of them totally disintegrated when removing it. I suppose I should do more routine inspections.

Hi all, Putting coolant back in the 60 but lost some in the process of changing it out. Need about a gallon of non-oreiilys coolant. Its green as well, but just want to be sure this isn't a nono to mix brands. they're both green. Thanks, Dan

Hi all, Had the water pump and timing belt on my 1999 Lx470 replaced by a shop a few days ago because it was leaking. After driving home from work today I noticed a puddle of coolant under the engine and discovered a steady leak from the bottom back of the engine. Anyone know what could be...

Hey everyone. Appreciate all the help on here. As I'm on here today getting ready to assemble almost a complete new coolant system, I'm reminded of a noise that came only for a few seconds then gone for the rest of the day. It sounds like somebody dropped a couple pebbles down a plastic pipe...

Picture says 1000 words. Now what? JB weld until it fully goes? No overheating, but slightly loss of coolant from expansion tank. Where to order the replacement from? Thanks in advance..

2004 Tundra, high miles 370k, just purchased and pretty much have everything buttoned and running well. Notice a coolant leak coming from front of engine. Long story short there is a gash on the back on the main coolant hose that looks to have been created by it coming in contact with the...

i've got a coolant leak that seems to be coming from above the starter and i think we tracked it down to the throttle body coolant hose. i think this hose serves to keep the throttle body from freezing up which i don't need right now? anyway can i plug this here and pull the hose and drive it if...

I've been getting A/T temp lights. 1st time was shortly after my timing belt was done. I pulled over & found the Rad reservoir was empty. Let it idle as manual says to do for temp lite, added coolant & waited for light to go out. Continued on to an off-road trip and no issues. Few weeks later...

Hi Guys, My car Landcruiser 80 1997. I have already posted a question on this issue and got answers. MANY THANKS TO ALL I did not asked an adittional important question. If after changing the coolant fronm green to red i did not flush or the flush was not good and I drove around 400-500km could...

Hi, The mechanic changed the coolant from green to red and i am not sure he did a proper flush or a flush at all. I noticed a small gel. Is there a risk of damaging the system? I am aware of the risk of mixing two different coolants. The question is if no flush or not a proper flush was...

Do not defer your 2F coolant flushing.… The FSM says to “change coolant if excessively dirty”. Well, my coolant was a 50/50 mix of Toyota coolant and did not appear dirty but wanted to flush and fill anyway. Glad I did. First, my radiator is an aftermarket 4 row type made by CSF. The drain...
