Coolant Leak 2008 Aurion
Hi Guys and Gals, A week or so ago I noticed that the coolant level in the overflow tank was a little low, so I topped it up. Usually it doesn't need topping up between 15,000 km services. Today I was driving and got a beeping and warning light on the instrument cluster. I noticed that the temperature gauge was in the hot zone.

Not sure if hybrid models have a different wiring or something. Any ideas appreciated. Ascent/Ascent Sport tail lights

2004 hilux 3.4L auto issue going up hills
Hi, Whenever travelling on highways at say 90-100kmh, I go up a hill and i lose speed and the revs go down down down, and i end up around 50-60kmh at super low revs. It doesnt change down a gear to get the power. What could be the cause of this? hilux is 580,000km but serviced all fluids, replaced water pump, fuel filter, not sure what else to try. i assume even though it doesnt change down gears it still should be able to hold 90-100 foot to the floor as they are not too steep hills. how d
