2009 - 115k miles
Very frustrating as I was planning on replacing the radiator and starter prior to LCDC. I had noticed a hairline crack, but it still surprised me. Water pump was replaced at 100k.
Called my dealer and scheduled an appointment and a loaner first thing in the morning. Will be having it towed there as I don’t see any coolant in the expansion tank which is concerning.
I just read through this whole thread and plan on replacing the following:
Radiator - 1640050380 (per
@linuxgod ’s post, newer rads are still failing so I will stick with orginal specced part)
Rad Upper Hose - 1657138080
Rad Lower Hose - 1657238130
ATF Cooler Inlet and Outlet Hose - 3294360390 x2
Super Long Life Coolant
Fan Clutch (per
@cruiseroutfit)
New Clamps
Am I missing anything? Going to get a quote for the starter as well to see if I can save on labor at all.
Will be calling Toyota Customer Service in the morning to see if they can help.
