Hi

Haven't posted here in quite a while, and need some advice from the IFS experts!

My Hilux is leaking oil from the sump.

What is the easiest method to remove the sump?

Looks like there is only 2 options... remove the front diff or take the engine out?

Thanks,

Etienne

Ek het `n branch en freeflow by Powerflow laat op sit, en die revs tel vinniger op met dit. Die low down torque voel ook beter.

Houkswyn

Chris, none of the ISPs other than Telkom will include landline rental with DSL. If you are going to stick with 1 ISP, then include the DSL line rental in the package. It is just easier to resolve issues this way. If you are going to want to be able to jump around between all the ISPs then leave DSL...

Chris, that 50/50 mushroom and mince burger patties sounds delicious. I must try it out.

I also need to start eating healthier again, I did banting for a while but stopped about 3 months ago, and since then I have been eating all the unhealthy stuff like there is no tomorrow.

Hulle is beskikbaar in 15" Ek het laas jaar nog `n quote by mufasa tyres gekry op all terrain en mud terrain.

Tertius, lyk my daar is min ouens wat hierdie bande gebruik. Ek het nou wel die all terrain bande, maar ek oorweeg om hulle weer te kry. Ek kan nie kla oor hulle nie, Dit lyk of die all terrain so tussen 60K en 80K kilos kan gee. EK het om en by 70K al gedoen met myne en daar is nog bietjie loopvlak...

Hi Glen.

You might want to clean the throttle body and see if that helps.

Also check that all the hoses are connected and in good shape.

Houkswyn

I also take the bashplate off. Actually I did a basic service yesterday and wondered about how not to spill oil everywhere when removing the filter.

It looks like I worked on a landy when im done with the service!

Houkswyn

Ai, toe moes ek natuurlik nou die prys gaan google... vanaf $80K tot $160K

Houkswyn

Welcome to the forum!

Hope you are patient. It might take a while for your Hilux to die!

Houkswyn

From what I have read on google is that the 3RZ uses the W56 box, and quite a few sites mentioned that it is stronger than the G series. The vigo uses a R series box apparently.

Houkswyn

Die Etienne's vat oor!

Where do you guys put the inverter and batteries?

Ideally I would want to put these things in the garage and wire from there?

Houkswyn

Yes, it might take a while before the electronics start to pack up or blow up. And I'm not considering generators anymore. I personally think the 12v batteries and pure sinewave inverter method is more slick, and will see how I can go that route. Need to get some cash to buy all the components. For ...

Houkswyn

You can buy a PowerMaster 1.2kva unit at Brights for R3999. That should be able to power a tv, decoder and a PC . I would have you'd mention steriliser, breast pumps, etc. - so of the two kids which one uses the PC the most? Well... the steriliser goes in the microwave.... We always have some steri...

Houkswyn

Dankie, Chris. Ek het julle threads mooi dop gehou die afgelope tyd. So dit lyk vir my ek moet maar `n battery, `n charger en baie LED strips kry, `n manier om die ligte aan en af te skakel, en dan baie draad trek in die dak :twisted: Die tv ens kan maar eers wag. Ek dink beligting is die belangriks...

Loadshedding is really starting to irritate me now. A 3 year old and a 3 month old baby and loadshedding isnt a fun combination. I recently found out about inverter generators and was wondering if that isnt a viable source of power during loadshedding. It apparantly has a pure sinewave inverter. You...

Houkswyn

Thanks for the responses guys.

I will go buy a few on the weekend.

Should I get aluminum or copper washers? Is aluminum better?

Houkswyn

Hi

My Hilux is in need of a new sump plug washer, as it is trying hard to behave like a Land Rover and mark its territory!

Can someone please tell me what size washer is required?

Thanks,

Etienne

I would say when the drivetrain has been changed.

I would even go as far as saying its not a hilux when a non hilux engine is fitted, even if it is a toyota engine.

Myne is amper standaard, maar het so bietjie "karakter" van `n paar trails wat ek al gedoen het. En om `n dag van die werk af weg te wees gaan my seker meer kos as wat hulle gaan betaal. Het Toyota SA nie voorbeelde van elke Hilux generasie nie? Wys jou hoe trots hulle op hulle produk is...

Josef dit is n bargain.

Hulle verkoop gewoonlik vir veel meer as dit.

Hi Josef

Watter enjin het die bakkie in? Die prys is ongewoon laag.

Miskien is dit die bargain van die jaar... Of n scam?

Thanks for the feedback.

It seems that lots of trails have closed over the last couple of years. I also wanted to do the Heuningberg trail in Porterville but the owner first said he will check his diary but later declined and mentioned he might open it sometime next year.

Hi

Het iemand al hierdie roete gery? Ek kon nie inligting vind op die internet nie, en sal graag `n paar opinies wil hoor.

I saw Shaun van der Merwe's sfa at a spray painter (In Parow) last week and this afternoon around 17:50 saw a blue 2.7 hilux 4x4 in Brackenfell crossing the railway bridge I was in a white hilus with alu cab. Who are you :?: I was going that way at that time on Friday and I also work in Brackenfell...

Heman het hierdie hele ding net begin as een groot vet grap. Soos ek hom ken het hy geweet dis die reaksie wat hy gaan kry. As hy dit vir enige ander "brand" gese het het almal nou saam gery en een vetpret dag gehad. Dis net die Hilux ouens wat die ding so ernstig opvat. Ek ry bitter min/...

Houkswyn

Stir is omtrent al wat die mense op 4x4community kan doen, en baie keer raak hulle persoonlik en se dan na die tyd dis net `n grappie...

Persoonlik dink ek Hilux forum is tops!

Houkswyn

This sounds very interesting. I don't like the checkeredplate look at all and also have dogs that wants to see where they are going!

Houkswyn

The service interval on the 3RZ is every 10 000km if i'm not mistaken.

Houkswyn

It would probably be between a suspension upgrade and a bumper replacement.

Houkswyn

I did the trail 3 weeks ago for the first time and some of the guys mentioned that is was little bit more difficult than the previous time.

So lots of fun will be had by anyone who joins in! Highly recommended.

P.S a landy and an isuzu broke down on the trail that day

Babylons Toren is `n baie lekker roete. Ek het gevind dat die mense dit baie erger laat klink as wat dit werklik is. Standaard running boards mag dalk `n knou kry daarso.

I had the same issue with my passenger front door. The window wound up but not down.

I opened up the switch and in there are 2 little "plates". One of them wasnt making contact anymore.

I placed them in their correct positions and after that the window wound up and down again.

Baie geluk! Jou Hilux lyk baie netjies.

Hi Jan

Volgens jou beskrywing sal dit selfs teen R90 000 `n bargain wees. 160 000 km is min.

Houkswyn

Daai Hilux word al vir `n paar maande op carfind.co.za adverteer. Ek neem aan dit is nog nie verkoop nie aangesien die prys te hoog is. Die boekie waarde is seker so R82000 maar hulle verkoop vir meer. Petrol verbruik op myne is 7km/l. (werk toe en terug) Gewoonlik gee die 1999 - 2002 modelle tussen...
