Hi all,
After purchasing a brand new 70 series land cruiser in November 2017 Manual diesel, I have had an issue with the ute going into limp mode which seemed to only occur whilst making a right turn or going through a round about! I have told Toyota and they seem useless at finding out the issue let alone can’t seem to make it occur whilst they are driving it, and claim it to be my “driving style”! I told them that I nurse the ute and don’t give it a hiding, I have spent months trying to determine the main contributing factors and this is what I have come up with.....
It’s not traction control (have pushed the ire through a wet round about to make the traction control go off, and it’s nothing like what I get when going into limp mode)
Secondly, no lights what so ever come up on my dash and doesn’t throw a fault code.
Happens no matter what level the fuel is in the tank!
I have taken everything out of the back of the ute to ensure I’m not “overloading” the ute as Toyota try to suggest
My thoughts are that the accelerator pedal is shit , or it’s something going wrong with the electrics! tomorrow I plan on swapping the accelerator pedal with a mate who has the exact same ute to see if that makes a difference (which I’m praying it will) as I’m starting to loose my shit with this issue as it starting to do it at lights and straight runs !
What’s everyone else think?
P.S I have my ute remapped with Egr blanked off and particulate filter removed. (Note: issue was happening previous to having this done (20,000 kms prior)
