yes Radio is the weak point. The sound deadening really helps, also gives the doors a more solid German feel.pieta.swanepoel wrote: ↑Wed Jan 31, 2018 7:03 am If only Toyota had fitted a better radio to the Hilux, and we would have been a whole lot better off.

3.0D4D Oil filter
Before putting the new filter back in next time, use a bit of oil applied with your fingers around the gasket of the filter. When you tighten, do not over tighten. Most often hand tight without over torque will do.
