Hi all,

I've got a Kluger MY11 KX-R which has done approximately 3000kms. Recently, I've experience a few weird issues with the car.

  1. On initial acceleration, there is a distinct shudder/rumble. It never used to do this, noticed it only recently.
  2. When driving at lower speed, the ride is quite bumpy & rough, as it as though as I am driving on a gravel road. I checked the tyre pressure, and they are all fine (sitting at around 36psi) and I even got the tyre balance checked out! Seems to be all okay. It somehow feels like the car has lost some power, hmm.
  3. 3When I am turning to the right, I can hear a faint a series of click click click.

Anyone else experienced this on their newish Kluger? It is bizarre. :help:

Hi,

I'm not an expert on your issues but take it back to the dealer. The turning noises may be something to do with being front wheel drive. The other issues may be a similar thing???

cheers. good luck

      Landcruiser 300 GR - Wheel/Tyre Setups

      No adjustment was necessary. Spedo on 100km/h shows a 97km/h on Ways/Google Maps so seems the auto may recalibrate itself back to somewhere close to factory. Tyres are 33.2" which comes in 1.6" larger than standard. Have also added an ARB long rage fuel (sub) tank. However the computer doesn't pick this up, extra 45 ltrs. Maybe an aftermarket hack somewhere but no big issue at this stage.

      Is it possible for the 3.0L 1KD engine to be in a 2020 Prado

      Was wondering if this is a scam. Guy selling what he says is a 2020 Prado TXL but says it has the 3.0L 1KD engine, is that possible? Everywhere I read says in 2015 the engine was changed to the 2.8L for the Diesel version. This is in Honduras.

      200 Series reverse camera not working

      Further update, Toyota had my vehicle all day and fitted the new camera; bloody thing did not work. So much for their diagnosis of an open circuit in the camera! Now I am told that I am going to have to remove all accessories out of the rear of the vehicle, so drawers, fridge and slide, battery and electronics that are all connected through to the main battery and solar system so that they can access the wiring in behind the side panels and drop the roof lining to further diagnose. Quoted me around $500 to remove all of these components so going to do myself and they are suspecting that the issue is going to be mine and not covered under warranty. The day after they fitted and removed the new camera, the rear vision started working for one day then died again so I am suspecting a wiring issue maybe through the tailgate or that as others have advised there is a faulty sensor under the passenger side dash that feeds into the infotainment system. I have mentionbed this sensor to Toyota on two occasions now and been fobbed off and not fault diagnosis undertaken that I am aware of.

      rattle from the motor.

      Here we are at June 21. After another round of mechanics workshops, the full timing chain and all parts have been changed, the catalytic (upper inc. the manifold,) converter, oil pump. Still when started cold it's a loud clatter, that is irregular in loudness and frequency. As it warms that decreases in loudness and consistancy, but can still be hears. When at idle, I increase the rpm to around 1500-2000 rpm, the sound fades to nothing. Please help. The mechanics have not, but I'm 5k poorer.

      A major Electrical problem on 2013 Grande

      haha nice to see your Kluger still going strong! Is your suspension still stock or you went with a lift for your road trips? I've decided to try keep mine for another few years so looking for lift kits for those long road trips when I get to pack the house with me.
