Whats with those small links?

BTW forgot to mention that there is no shake in the steering wheel. The 'shudder', really hard to describe but almost like brakes on and off. Cannot identify front or rear or both. Got me totally miffed.

Hi everyone, new to this forum - refugee from LCOOL. Had a minor shudder when applying the brakes. Also was somewhat intermittent. Having over 100k on the clock a lot which were done towing a big van, I thought I may have warped a disk. Checked them with a dial gauge but no useful info. Bit the bullet and replaced all 4 with new slotted rotors and pads from DBA. Huge difference in braking. However the shudder has return almost with a vengeance. Thought I fixed the problem when I disconnected the ECU for another unrelated issue. ECU is remapped, car went in limp mode and could not clear it with the scangauge. Problem not fixed and I am lost as to why this is happening. Plan on visiting Berima Diesel later on this year to have the injectors checked and I'll get them to look at the brakes if I still haven't figured it out. Any suggestions would be welcomed. Thank you

G’day and Welcome Maga I’m new here so Sorry can’t help but thought I’d say 👋

To my knowledge depending on the year off npp exhaust it's already done factory. snaptube vidmate

Ah I see, I had no idea aisan was related to toyota. I initially thought it was clone of aisin or smth

Hi everyone, new to this forum - refugee from LCOOL. Having read some of the replies, to the best of my knowledge there is no such thing as a minor remap. Toyota in their wisdom have the software in the ECU such that it cannot be downloaded, modified and reloaded. It has to be a complete reload, either stock or modified. All you fellows disconnecting the battery is a good and simple way to try and reset everything but similar results can be achieved by simply disconnecting the ECU. That's the big plug in the firewall passenger side. Meanwhile I may need to start a new topic for the following issues I am experiencing: Had a minor shudder when applying the brakes.

I been using nulon w5-30 fully synthetic long life and good on fuel change oil every 5000kms to keep it clean all d time

G’day All just got a 2012 (old shape) Corolla Ascent Hatchback Auto. Needs a few things done, it was my Dads who just passed away. Going to install pioneer head unit (basic one really) as a start, then maybe upgrade speakers but I’ll see how the oem ones go, I’ve read I’ll need at least 50w ones for the pioneer. Front inner plastic guards are a bit trashed along with bumper bar, just need to neaten it up a little. cheers Sparky

G’day TGA, hope you got this sorted, just about any 2 din would fit. I’m putting a pioneer one in but I’d like to know how to pull the trims apart to fit it 🤨 Every video shows the sedan with a different gearshift with short trims to remove but those 2 lower side ones are 1 piece on the hatch and I’m struggling. Do I need to remove console box to start removing those side piece. Any help cheers Sparky

I am sure many owners of Landcruiser 200s have had the same experience as me where the GPS has led me into the wrong roads. I’ve had two Landcruisers, a 2013 model and currently have a 2021 model. Both vehicles had/have poor GPSs. Even Toyota personnel agree with this. so I am considering replacing it with an after market unit. I don’t want one which relies on mobile phone connection. I am looking at a unit sold by Brummstadt.

Since last year I've been getting quite terrible wheel wobble between 60-70 mph on the expressway. Sort of notice it however way less evident now and again going more slow. Recently got crankshaft belt and flash fittings changed at a repairman I believe that accomplishes great work. This began occurring after I got excessively blissful doing doughnuts in the colder time of year and knock a snow bank tapping a road sign haha... I figured I twisted something in the driver side suspension...lower control arm, tie bar, and so on yet repairman said everything was straight and tight, bushings alright, no spillage on them or swaggers. He said perhaps a wheel arrangement would fix it. I maintain that should do swaggers in any case cause the ride isn't quite as smooth as it used to be. Contemplations? Assuming I get an arrangement would it be advisable for me to do the swaggers first or is that all the more with supplanting the lower control arm? 192.168.100.1 192.168.1.1

I'd be surprised if they expect you to pay for it as it is a recall issue. Glad it's been checked out before it's too late though.

Any one had any experience with fusible links blowing out. Auto electrician replaced one fusible link today bc and after driving it for 1/2 hour the plastic has melted and the link red hot. It is the blue link in the set. Any suggestion?

Hi just wondering if anyone would know why my gearbox is jumping out of 1st gear, it engages into first but before I can change to 2nd gear it sometimes jumps back to neutral.

I just had my Aurion ATX 2010 in for service today and received a call regarding oil cooling pipe has a prick hole and car is deemed not safe to drive till replaced. Service department bloke said they are taking photos and sending of for Warranty and awaiting a reply if it will be replaced at their cost or mine. I was informed it was picked up during service in 2020 and deemed safe? I will keep you updated on the outcome. my car has always been serviced at Toyota and only has 209,900 Kim’s

I am thinking of getting Yaris but unsure what to look out for ie what’s generally fails in Yaris etc. What mode is a better build etc. I have zero car knowledge so any advice is greatly appreciated. thank you kindly

Here are a couple of observations re Nulon from years back : I added some of the G60 for gearboxes to an old 4 speed Peugeot gearbox, 404, 504, the one cleverly designed with a leak prone vertical change shaft (what were they thinking 45 years after they invented the 16 valve 4cyl?) and was surprised that the synchromesh vanished. Owner was not amused ! Synchromesh relies on friction, and I had to change the oil three times to wash it out enough for the synchro to return. Another time, I ran Briggs and Stratton fire pump, (the sort that won't start on a hot day, now long gone) pretty low on oil, and heard from a distance that it ran faster and faster until it stopped at pretty much full throttle. Seized i thought,and good riddance. But no. I had put Nulon in the oil, and it was good as ever, which wasn't very good, and it still used oil. And if you put Nulon in a new engine as I did a bit soon, it will never run in. Eventually it blew a headgasket some years later and it stopped using oil after running for a while on the well known mayonnaise. Today I put E20 ,tho not called that anymore, in an ageing 16V Hdi in a C5 and it was almost immediately quieter. I hope it doesn't block up the suction screen which has huge holes relative to the suspended particles. I guess it might have an effect on the hydraulic lifters. I Hope not. Cheers, Jon

Hi there, bit of background, I’ve got a 2003 Toyota hiace lwb that has a good motor but the shell is dead, and a 1993 Toyota hiace commuter extra long wheel base that has a dead motor. Both diesel, 1993 is 2.4L engine, 2003 I’m not 100% but I believe it’s also a 2.4L engine So my question is does anybody know if the 2003 motor would fit in the 1993 hiace commuter.

Need to change my oil but don't know how much oil to put back into engine? Tarago 1998 GLI

Hi all, trying to get some opinion/feedback on what I recently observed on my Corolla Cross. It happened on the last two trips where the car made noise, I feel some vibration/rattling when I was braking. It lasts for 1 or 2 seconds. I kind of felt the tires skid but I am not sure if that's what actually happened. And I, again kind of, felt that it was the right side tires. Or at least the noise coming from the right side. But it could be just because I was driving and obviously sit on the right side of the car. In those 2 trips, it happened in 4 occasions. And it wasn't abrupt or hard braking, just normal slowing down. I wonder if this is a known issues ... or if anyone with the same car experience the same or similar issues. Thank you.

Hi everyone, My kluger 2009 kx-s on 136000 odo meter, it has the catalytic converter problem so I have changed it even though it shows the same code po420 code please help to solve this issue thanks

Aisan (not to be confused with Aisin by the way) has been an OEM supplier for Toyota carburetor, throttle-body and fuel-injection components since the '60s. Unlike Denso and Aisin though, they're not actually part of the Toyota Group (but Toyota does have a financial interest in them)

I have a 1997 Camry vienta with a 3vzfe. My idle air controller is gone and I'm looking for a replacement. I came across an AISAN ISC 069 and was wondering if it's oem like denso? if not then is it a good replacement? I have also looked at GOSS and Tridon and was wondering which of them is better. Also what aftermarket brand is good in genera PAT, GOSS or tridon? cause I can't find may toyota parts for my car so I need to rely on these
