Great - it's almost done. Just need to get some new bolts tomorrow as half of them sheared when I removed them. It was hilariously simple actually as I was expecting this to be tricky after trying to repair an old Mercedes - they seem to build the car around the wiper linkage! The hardest part...

Thanks very much - I'll have another look at it this weekend. Regards, Dylan

Hi, I'm about to change my wiper mechanism (100 series 1998 4.2) because one of the spindles/bushes has worn out. I've got the mechanism from Milner. I've found out basically how to do it from reading posts and a couple of videos I came across, but I can't see how to remove this plastic grill at...

Is it this little plug to disconnect please?

Sorry I know there's a lot of info about this intake heater disconnection, but please could I just confirm that I just disconnect this small connector here? Thanks

Thanks everyone - it only just started this morning so I've ordered a pair of Varta from Battery Megastore for £195 delivered. I'll let you know if they turn up! Dylan

They just sent me a code for 5% when I gave my email address.

Ah yes they look good - it's the same site (Battery Megastore) that the Bosch ones were on.

Ok thank you - I'll check with Toyota in Guildford then. I'll decide about the heater grid too. Dylan

Yes thanks I was just thinking that. I've only had it about a month and can only see a receipt for one battery in 2018. I think I'll have to just fork out and get a pair. I've seen a matched pair of Bosch S4 for £200 on line - seems reasonable.

Hi - I'm having slow cranking in the mornings due to battery or batteries not holding charge. I've charged them separately just now and one is clearly much worse than the other. Am I able to drive using one battery for a day or two while I get a replacement please? Also, white researching...

Oh that's great thanks. I'll probably just get that and work out how to change it. I expect there's a video somewhere on youtube. D

Hi - this is my first post after buying my 100 last week. I'm finding small issues here and there, and one problem is that one of the wiper spindle parts seems to have broken. The wipers still work but there is a huge amount of play in one as if a bush has disappeared. Do I need a complete...

Hi all! After years of series land rover and shogun ownership I've finally bought a 1999 Landcruiser Amazon diesel VX with 185K miles on the clock. A few niggles to sort out but generally clean. Looking forward to reading all the posts on this forum - apologies in advance for any dumb questions...
