Hi Folks! The old girls exhaust started blowing coming to work this morning, haven't had chance for a full inspection yet but if it is all shot are stainless available? Does anyone know if anyone manufactures one or would it need to be a custom built, Powerflow type? Has anyone had prior...

Hi Folks, Pretty much as per the title! My ABS light has illuminated, brakes seem to be working fine but haven't been on anything with little enough traction to test that the ABS is working too. Also discovered that both the stop lights and the high level stop light are not working. I haven't...

Hi Folks, Happy New year to all. Question is pretty much as the title, The past couple of weeks my 3.0td 95 (1997 Prado) has been smelling really strongly of diesel after start up and for the first few miles. It seems to go away but this could be me either getting used to the smell or the...

Just changed the oil on my 1997 3.0td 95. It took 6.8 litres and the level looked correct at the time. Then paranoia crept in and I started thinking there was too much oil in but I can't seem to get a good reading as the dipstick seems to show really high on one side (like it's getting covered...

Hi Folks, Just a quickie (to those much more knowledgable than me)! I have a '97 3.0D Prado, I have a standard fuel tank, is this 90 litres? Cheers Rob :character-beavisbutthead:

Hi All, I've noticed my cruiser has developed a judder when pulling away in first, it also sometimes does it between first and second. If you are really careful with the clutch and give a few extra revs it seems OK. Was thinking perhaps the clutch, an engine mount or something with the...

Hi Folks, My Prado has started to pull to the left under braking, the steering wheel actually rotates as you brake. My local garage has had a quick look for any play in anything and all they came up with was that the steering rack had a tiny bit of play (then quoted £1900 for a new rack from...

Hi, I live in the North of England. Into most things with wheels and engines, I like to dabble in rallying and track days etc. (tho not in the cruiser!! :shock: ) My Cruiser is a 97 Prado which I bought of a friend, He got it from Nene Overland who prepared it. It has amongst other things...
