Hi Gareth
Will also be keen to hear how the installation will go as I too am in the
market for a new exhaust. Will be watching out for your posts.
To all
Now that I have had the new starter in the car for a week I can confirm that
it is working fine and no issues at all. However, I have now noticed a
distinct clunk on firm braking coming from the passenger side front wheel.
This has been the worst wheel for oil leaks and I suspect that the wheel
bearing is going. I have not had a chance to jack up the beast but will
have a go tonight and then wiggle it top and bottom to see if there are any
tell tale movement. I expect there will be as if you rock the wheel whilst
car is planted firmly on the ground there is more noise than the other side!
Ooops sounds like more trouble.....
Anyone notice their idle speed dropping in this hot weather? Mine is all
over the shop and I though at one point it was going to stall. Will tweak
the idle speed screw and see if she is happier.
You will love this, went to Halfrauds to get an oil filter as Toyota were
miles away and I just could not be asked on a hot Sat morning and can you
imagine they wanted over ?18.00 for a crap pattern one. So off to Toyo
Sidcup and bought a real one for ?15.00! While I was in Hals I bought lots
of their own brand oil with 1/3 off, don't know if it is any good but its
got to be better than the oil thats in the car at the mo!

K reg TLC 4.2D VX (fixed the funny noise and now there is a new one)
