Hi all,
I am looking to sell my Gen3 Montero and make my way into the 200 Series world. I live in SoCal and am beginning the hunt for a LX570 soon.
Hoping to find one with under 200,000 miles and under 30k. I am preferably looking for the 08-12 since that is what fits my budget the most.
I am currently researching common issues or things to look out for and to my surprise having a real hard time finding any big issues aside from anything with rust of course.
So far I am aware of the coolant valley leak, cam tower oil leak, and I have read some reports of AHC failing?
Any input would be appreciated as I am looking to buy one in the next 3 months. Ive been throw the overlanding phase already, so I am excited to build up a new truck with everything I learned!
