Anyone? Nobody seems to ever want to reply to me :( lol

I borught a tarago 89 3y 2.0 Auto about 3 weeks ago, I PLANNED to do some of the eas coast in, however I don't that will be ahppening anytime soon. When I bought it, everything looked fine, honest! I've bought tones of cars before... Anyway, besides the cold starting problem (which I think is the distributor...) There seems to be an odd noise come coming from under the drivers seat, when the cars been drive for about 15min. Its a squeaking noise / clunky noise that only seems to happen at 20kmph+ It usually happens when im just bobing along on the road, not nesesarly when i'm going over bumps. Any ideas on what I should check first? I'm hoping its just an engine mount, but there isnt much play on the engine (when rev'd) and the gear box changes fine..... Suspension seems ok, we rocked the hell out of it and it didnt make a sound.... The exhaust is blowing alittle, so could it be the manifold? I ask because i'm a pom.... and im scared of going to the mechanics without advice... I have really been dooped on here by an american dude.... I jsut wanna fix it and get on m way now :( girlfriend is so gutted we cant do the trip..... so, please, find it in your heart to help :) for the record, i payed AU$2600 for a 200km tarago with 11months rego...

Any suggestions at all guys?

I think so bro, it was light brown in colour, and was dripping from the trany. And Ideas of how much something like that would cost to sort out? Thanks for your reply

I have a DX tarago, 1990, shes runs well, and as long as I've had her shes never slipped a gear. I notice a few spots of oil on the driveway, thought nothing of. but, after along drive I checked under the car, to my horror i saw freaquent drops of trany oil leaking. If there are no symptoms of gear slipping and everything is running smoothly would that indicant a broken gasket? Its an auto trans, I was wondering if any knew anything about this model. thanks

Any advice would be useful guys, thanks

Nice pics bro!

I'm looking for a 4 runner to cruise around Australia in. It will probably be an old model, are there any specific problems I should look out for? Any recommendation on a better car / model? I have about $5000AU to spend

Good tip, You can also get brake cleaner that help remove glazing. It also helps reduce brake dust ;)

wow excellent, very easy to follow

A turbo... that would scare the crap out of me in a 90 tarago.... i feel unsafe driving mine as it is! last thing i'd want is more power A turbo can be fitted to must cars, but you'll need to make space for an inter cooler, and I have no idea where you would start on the 90 tarago... there little space as it is..

Thanks for your tips Rolla !! : thanks for the tips also

Sorry it is illegal in the UK to do this , not sure about AUS, but i dont think Aussies even care about others on the road anyway :P

Just make sure you have adjustable headlights, else your going to be blinding people on the road, causing accidents and generally annoying people....

isnt it illegal to use HIDS without adjustable headlights?

I have a 90 tarago 2.0l petrol AUTO, in great cond, done over 200ks around Australia etc. However recently when the car is cold it struggles to start, and the only way to get it going is to press the accelerator pedal 4 times then start the engines. So basically flooding the engine starts the car..... however it will the some times struggle to stay alive until its warm. It idles low but i don't think that's the problem. i have Wd40'd everything, put fuel cleaner in the tank... not sure what else to do... Could it be the distributor cap? Its done allot of miles, maybe its time for a new one... Any help would be awesome Thanks guys
