LC200 4WD ECU location
I want to resolve a communication problem with the 4WD ECU on my 2008 LC200. The ECU stoped communicating with an error code of U0114. I try to locate the 4WD ECU. The toyota service and repair manual suggests, that it is behind the instrumental panel on the right hand side of the steering column. According to the instructions, it should has two connectors attached to its back. Need some help to locate the box. -

A major Electrical problem on 2013 Grande
Had an interesting (read expensive) problem with my 2013 Kluger Grande (the last of the Japan built gen 2). I have never had anything more major than a dirty rear door motor across three gen 2s I've owned. They are ultra reliable. This week the good wife heads out only to return in 1 minute. Grabs me to have a look. The blinkers stopped, followed by all the dash lights and buttons. Within 5 minutes the engine stopped and the starter wouldn't turn over. So, I reckon, obviously battery, sure enough dead flat. Had a new one delivered, $300, started ok but not charging. Ok, that's why the battery is dead, so alternator is shot, not charging the battery, therefore (I'm thinking), all the dash electrics went out in sympathy. And still out even with new battery. But the lights and emergency flasher still work??. So, I fit a new alternator,$350. Still no charge or change in symptoms. OK, Now it's time to think outside the box. Check all the fuses. Engine bay...all OK. But where are the cabin fuses, not under the steering wheel as expected. They're under the glovebox! Ok, there is a 10A fuse gone, which according to some info sheet, feeds power to a myriad of items, but no mention of alternator. So replace that fuse, all working for 10 seconds, then everything dies again. The new fuse has blown! OK, this is getting tricky. What's causing this fuse to blow? Whilst at the cabin fusebox, there's a lead feeding the cabin fan just next to it, I pull out the plug, put in another fuse and voila, everything works apart from the AC and fan. I teplace the fan....another $350. Everything now works and the alternator is now charging. Yippee. Only the drivers window is going up and down halfway then reversing. The battery removal has upset the limits, so turn on ignition, hold window switch down and keep holding, turn ignition off and back on, let go switch and the window now behaves. Hope this helps others to save replacing a perfectly good alternator and perhaps save a battery too.- 1

Insurance
Yeah, kind of what I've been thinking, but due to how bad the drivers are through Chatswood and those areas I'll probs ensure it with someone like AusPost who have the cheapest insurance and will insure me but I will definitely get the cameras you suggested thankyou so much- 1

Insurance
If you've answered all their questions honestly & tried all the majors then there's nothing you can do other than find the cheapest quote for 3rd party because that's the minimum you need to be out on the roads. Some 3rd party insurance will also cover your car up to a small amount ($3000) if the other party is at fault & they have no insurance. Because you will be driving around with no insurance for your own car, I suggest getting quality dashcams front & rear to cover yourself incase of any claims you need to make against someone at fault. I recommend the viofo A129 pro duo https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/295468431227 Start getting quotes again for comprehensive insurance, once enough time lapses to have confidence answering those licence disqualification questions without needing to disclose. Usually 3-5 years after the fact....- 1

Insurance
Hey guys I'm new here I've run into a pretty major issue, I've just bought myself a 2007 aurion sx6 as an 18 year old red p plater who commutes to sydney city daily around 165km round trip (six days per work) for work. When I was younger I got done with some heft demerits and was given a police suspension (Dec 2022-Feb 2022) in court the judge ordered my license to be canceled (hence the red P plates at nearly 19) and I was suspended again in December of 2023 until March 2024 when I got caught by a camera doing 6km over the limit in the tolls tunnels (stupid ik) - and just before I bought my car I was T-Boned on my motorbike not at fault but a claim was made, most insurers are flat out refusing to insure me and the ones that don't refuse quote me around $5000-$6000 for full comprehensive. Have no family whose insurance I can be added to and as an apprentice I really can't afford $5000 for insurance. I know all of this is a result of stupid decisions made when younger - but if anyone has any helpful tips or advice it would be greatly appreciated I have been on the train for the past 3 months and it's a 4 hour trip each way so kind of need this sorted -

Ticking Hilux 5le
Hi all, got a 2004 diesel 4x4 Hilux with the 5le motor in it. 250,000 kilometres, i’m the second owner and have had it about 9 months. Since I bought it there has always been a constant ticking noise while driving (anywhere over 1200rpm) but not while idling. Does it while accelerating, maintaining speed and decelerating. No real impact on power and I get about 12.5L per 100km. I never worried about it too much but it’s starting to ***** me off a bit. I’ll link a video below, any clues what could be causing the noise? -
