problems

I'm seriously considering selling my Tacoma and LX 470 and buying a GX 460. But I started reading about GX 460's having transmission problems. The more I research, the more common it seems. I really, really don't want to own a vehicle that is prone to trans problems! And while I am very...

Hey, I'm new here but I have a 2000 land cruiser & I bought it not too long ago. I've noticed that sometimes when I drive and come to a full stop. Right when I'm about to drive again, my wheels will lock up & Active Traction control will show up on my display & delay my acceleration. Sometimes...

I put a new radio in yesterday and got everything working except the front door speakers, the front dash speakers and the rear door speakers are all that’s working. 94 cruiser

Hi, I have a problem with my 1HD-FT, ran out of diesel and now it’s idling bad and while driving it’s even worse. Max rpm between 1200-1800 Changed diesel filter, took out diesel armature from the tank, cleaned the pre-filter, drained the tank and cleaned the inside of the fuel lines. Any...

Hello, I have recently purchesed a 1980 Toyota Pickup, SR5 Longbed 2wd, 20r engine. When I bought the truck the engine was only running on 2 cylinders, had a lot of carb problems, was burning oil, and possible head gasket. I rebuilt the engine, put on a new Carburetor (the weber 32/36) and...

Thought I would share this as well, hopefully it helps. Pretty easy fix that anyone can do. For a few weeks I had the odd intermittent issue of the starter not turning. There would be a loud audible click from the solenoid activating the gear pushing out, but no crank. A simple fix always...

Hey everyone, so I'm looking for anyones recommendations based on experience with a 3FE. Here's the situation: 92 FJ80, 3FE, engine seized, I got a replacement and it's been rebuilt by a shop, installed by another shop. Pressure test when cold is good, but once it heats up, it starts dumping...

I was having the following symptoms with my 2003 Lx470 original nav screen. My nav unit stopped reading the original maps disk (located under the passenger seat). This leads to a very annoying popup displaying on the screen "disk error, check Nav disk" There are a couple different wordings...

Looking for people who have had problems with the catalytic converters on their FZJ. I have a 97 with 240k on the clock that I’ve owned for over 13 years. A while back it started running very weak which came on fairly quick and for lack of better terms feels like it has asthma or COPD( I’m a...

So carelessly took out the motor (it was not working) fudging the alignment of the wiper mechanism in the process. The motor had a lose wire so soldiered it (More like butchered) and got the motor working again. I also flipped the carbon connectors as wires coming out had become too close to...

Regarding 1978 FJ40 (generally stock) Folks - this is the first post I've made in a really long time. While I still have the 40 and the 100 series, the reality is after getting older and having 2 kids I literally have not had to do any work (or have the time to tinker with it anymore) on the...

My 40 has been sitting for some time…. Just took it for a spin and when idle the AFR reads 9.6, then will spike to 35.6 every 30 seconds or so then catch its self with extra rpm to keep running. IAC at 4% but drifts as well… When on the road it bogs down bad on acceleration. She ain’t happy!

Hi Folks- Before I run to far down the rabbit hole w/ spacers and extra springs your thoughts on my problem would be appreciated. I installed a OME Suspension system this week in my 1987 FJ60 and it has the preverbial drivers side lean and a forward rake, both of which I can not live with...

I have a FJ80 in Dark Grey / Blue Grey (183) with peeling clearcoat. Local bodyshop is booked out, and would probably want about $10k to do the paint. Is there a single stage version of Dark Grey / Blue Grey from Toyota or maybe another reputable manufacturer? Can I paint over top (when the...

I tried to search this problem, sorry if this is redundant. My tach, speedometer, and odo display is just blinking on and off roughly one second intervals. I pulled the entire display out looked inside, don't see anything obvious. Checked the connections look clean and good. No codes. ...

So I put another motor and trans in my rig after the original ones started to develop problems. 1Fz-fe/A343F. I am to the point in my project when I am ready to get it back on the road soon. I am trying to figure out why it is barely moving in drive. The rpms go up high (3-4k), and it takes my...

My daughter and SIL have a new-to-them 99 100 series-- one that I found for them down here in AZ. They were out driving around Utah (Hobble Creek Canyon to be precise) and started to hear some noises coming from the driver's side front brake. So I am now trying to help them out from 600 miles...

I am at Windrock Park and was speeding around on easy parts of G1, then the Check Engine and Check VSC notifications came on. I was in 4 hi and no CDL engaged, but I couldn’t engage 4 lo. I googled once I had service and it seemed it might be a gas cap issue. I took the gas cap off, put it back...

1973 FJ55 with 47 gallon extended range fuel tank, old and rusty on the inside. I removed the tank after draining the very old and very brown gas out of it. Pressure washed the outside and blasted through a few small holes in the side. The build up and rust has destroyed the tank. Super...

I was wondering if anyone else had the problem on the 100 series of the hvac either blowing super cold (turned all the way down) or super hot at anything other than the very lowest temperature setting. I don’t know what is causing it, or what to replace
