Have a ‘96 Prado 90 1kzte with roughly 160k KM on it, new owner. After a few weeks with it developed rpm jumping at 80kmh, where the rpm would jump up 200-300, then drop down, then back up, as long as the car held at that speed.
Was inconsistent at first then gradually became constant.

Hello all! I've been lurking as a guest since I bought my 1995 Prado (KZJ78W-PET, 1KZTE, A343F G284) in June while living in Japan. I thoroughly enjoy the rig, but it's surely showing that it's 30 years old. Been chasing electrical issues, starting abnormalities (slow starts, a hard...
I'm in need of a torque converter for a rebuilt A442F hydraulic tranny that I'm putting in soon. Anyone have a used one? I ordered one from Yoshiparts only to wait 3 weeks and have them tell me it was unavailable and cancelled my order. It looks like the part number is the same for the A440 and...
Hello,
I am finished with my ZF 8HP75 swap into my 1997 J80. I love the 8 speed, but need to get rid of the 4 speed.
I am selling the A343F from my 1997 J80 with 177k miles on it. It does have a shift kit in the valve body, as I had the Wit's End turbo kit on for the last 8k miles. This...
Hi,
Small quick question. when at idle and gear in D, the J200 does not creep quickly enough (when AC is off) at low rpm. The J200 does not move if placed at a very slight inclined road (rather tends to move backward) or if its in a pothole, it does not move. Even in slow moving traffic, i need...
Hello everyone,
I have been on the look out for a torque converter for my 1991 80 series. I have a transmission to install but was a new or rebuilt torque converter. Dose anyone know where I can source one?
So not my first rodeo but having an issue I need to talk through and maybe someone can chime in with advice that I’m missing. 96 Fzj80 supercharged with a rebuilt transmission (less than 1000 miles on Tranny rebuild) by a shop done by the previous owner. I had a brand new short block I put a...

I’ve been chasing an intermittent issue with lockup not engaging at highway speeds. I know there are general conditions that the ECU needs to see to enable lockup such as speed, oil and and ATF temperature, but maybe 50% of the time lockup does not happen when these appear to be met. When...
Hi im new to owning a land cruiser and am wondering where the best place to buy a torque converter would be. My transmission will not engage gears when put into drive, only has reverse, thinking about trying to do a rebuild on the transmission or throwing in my spare 440 i found, but im going to...
Okay, here is the whole story. I bought a 1992 with a seized engine 243k miles. Engine overheated on a hill and chugged to a stop, all things pointed to overheating and seizure. Prior doing anything it cycles through the gears just fine(going from park to neutral as I pushed it around the shop)...
Our ‘01 LC has been having intermittent issues with what we believe to be the torque converter locking up, which caused the car to stall when it moved to idel. This morning, it appears the issue has magnified as the gears won’t engage when put in drive or reverse. Assuming worst case scenario...
98 Lexus LX470 Transmission Symptoms
Intermittent Symptoms – Can’t always be repeated, but happens most of the
time under perfect conditions.
While driving up a steep hill in 2nd gear (shifter in D) and gradually decreasing
throttle input (like when there’s a stop sign at the top of the hill)...
Hey All,
I hydrolocked my motor and am in the middle of a swap, while pulling my old motor, I damaged the torque converter - it made a nasty ticking noise when spinning by hand.
Have a new torque converter now, and no more noise when spinning on the trans - I already pre-filled the TC as much...
Looking for advice.
Recurring issue where LC stalls out when coming off highway to first stop light. In sputters and then stalls. It will restart and run in Park or Neutral - but when engaged in Drive or Reverse it stalls.
This has happened a number of times over the past couple years - but...
I have previously posted about the ATF temperature spiking in my A340F transmission when I let go of the gas. I think I narrowed down the issue a bit, so this is more specific post/question.
In short, the issue arises when I am driving at highway speeds (over 80-85km/h) or uphill for any...
Towed a uhaul 12x6 uhaul trailer loaded with about 1750 pounds of cargo. Ran from Dallas to Springfield MO. About 400 Miles. Truck ran fine and I used ETC Power for the tow to tighten up the TC. I noticed in the latter part of the trip that if I gave it the throttle it needed for a quick climb...

Hi all, been reading this forum for a while but finally made an account to post. I have a 2000 LC and noticed that when cruising on the highway in o/d (4th gear) with the torque converter locked and I give it a bit of throttle the unlock of the torque converter is a bit harsh, nothing crazy just...
