    Why is my coolant leaking/evaporating? (photos)

    Thank you for the replies. I will order a new cap as well following your suggestion. But what is weird is that the expansion tank is working normally, it fills when hot and gets around to middle when cool, so this means the cap must be working, no? But i'll swap it anyway, it's not that...

    Why is my coolant leaking/evaporating? (photos)

    Hi all. So I change coolant about, maybe two years ago, I did it by flushing the radiator, fill it with distilled water and flush it again several times, while running the engine a little bit to circulate, diluting the old coolant and flush again. I then bought much more Toyota coolant than...

    GL4 vs GL5 on gearbox.

    He said something along the lines of the thicker oil film between the gears with the GL5 oil will better avoid metal to metal contact. Me personally also believe that those gears don't need those extreme pressure additives, and may even contributive to more wear over the years with the increase...

    GL4 vs GL5 on gearbox.

    Was having a discussion with a mate about my recent transmission oil change on my 90 series. Manual says to put either GL4 or GL5, and since I heard GL4 was more recommended for manual gearbox, I put in that. But the mate says I was stupid because GL5 was better, if the manual says I could had...

    Mysterious electric wire plug hanging under car.

    Yep, they just told me there is no ready-to-go wire for the trailer. Haha. I found mine exactly where you said it would be. And that hanging one is for the nonexistent diff lock system. Awesome, thanks for the help

    Mysterious electric wire plug hanging under car.

    Thank you for the insight guys. I'll send these pics to the dealership see if they can pin point what it is, because if it is for a trailer that would be awesome since I actually need to power my boat trailer lights

    Mysterious electric wire plug hanging under car.

    Hi guys! I found this plug hanging near the fuel tank and I have no idea of what its use is for. I tried reaching around the area to see if I could feel the other plug that connects to this one but nothing. I clean it good with contact cleaner spray but the amount of dirt baked into the plug...

    Antenna unit replacement

    Yeah, I paid 60 euros at the dealership. And I guided the antenna wire trough the normal route, except that I passed under the column. I did tried to pass it over some other wires and such to make it cozy for the antenna wire, there is more than enough wire length for that.
