Opinions please: Questionable replacement 2GR-FE 3.5l V6.
Hi All, If there are any people out there experienced with the replacement of Toyota V6 engines, specifically the 2GR-FE, I'd appreciate your comments on the suitability of the following engine. The supplier cited it as remarkably clean but it has clearly been exposed to water,. The supplier cites a three month warranty and talked about the cleaning process: They cleaned it with water and, judging by the pictures supplied by our mechanic, clearly forgot to drain it afterwards. See the pictures for more on that. The oil isn't oil anymore, but that's to be expected when you clean an engine out with water. As to why they did not clean it with a spirit based solvent that is safe for the non metallic components of the engine I don't know, but then, I really don't know much at all about how one would clean an engine -- and why you would want to do so if it was as good as they say. There is sludge all inside the main seal, but I would like to clarify if this is just grease and is maybe typical of a motor that has done 100,000kms. The cam is slightly pitted from rust, the timing belts on one side have surface rust, though it is unlikely to have penetrated deeply into the moving surfaces of the chain links and can probably be effectively cleaned with a stiff nylon brush. As usual, a picture is worth a thousand words so please see below and know that all help is appreciated. -

Imported Toyota Prius hybrid - Plug in 2017
Hi everyone, I’m hoping someone in this group can assist me. I own an imported 2017 Toyota Prius plug in hybrid, and unfortunately, the official Toyota dealers in Melbourne have refused to service my car due to its import status. I’m now looking for an independent service provider or mechanic who has experience working with imported Toyota hybrids, specifically hybrid systems, electrical diagnostics, and general repairs. If anyone has had a similar experience or can recommend a reliable specialist or workshop in Melbourne that can service hybrid imports, I would really appreciate it! Thank you in advance for any suggestions or help! -

Yaris Cross Space Saver
Hi Ian, I am in the same situation, having signed up to purchase a Yaris Cross GX AWD. It comes with a repair kit only, but my contract is subject to a space saver tire being fitted. Can I ask if this has worked out for you? Toyota are saying that there is an issue with securing the tire under the boot floor. Thanks in advance for your assistance. -

Brake issues
None of this makes sense. Interesting to see you used different pads - DBA pads. I fitted Repco ceramic blend. At one stage I thought the pads were leaving something behind which would be the cause for DTV (disc thickness variation) but you are experiencing the same problem with different pads. Maybe Toyota has a built in sensor to ensure you replace worn brakes with Toyota OEM. Ah Ah. -

Land cruiser 2020, 200 series brake upgrade for towing
While many retailers would recommend a brake package upgrade, I personally am not sure about the need for slotted rotors in a 4x4 (dirt, mud getting stuck in the rotor slots). I think that there are decent braking performance improvements available simply from installing better brake pads on the standard rotors.
