Lo all Tried towing the toy (with a landy) and she started but would cut out if the revs dropped below 1200rpm. Revved like a dream but would not idle. Sent her in for diagnostics and the report said that the crank position sensor is faulty. Ordered a new one from Toyota and 2 weeks later got a cam ...

Howzit I too have major whine in my 2700i box in all gears except 4th (thats when I can hear the wife whining) It started in 3rd and has now taken over. Ive stripped the box and have started replacing all the bearings, but cannot find any traces of wear. All the bearings are available from the local...

Back in the saddle again. The egg-spurts summised that sumhow my motor kicked backwards and clapped the new timming chain tensioner loose, this fell to the bottom of the housing and broke the cam chain into stukkies and one of the stukkies cracked the crank position sensor which shorted out part of ...

What??? you ar'nt a registered trailer builder...shame, I am...(I am also involved in a small business that manufactures and repairs rubber ducks, therefore I qualify as a "trailer builder'..the specs for a boat trailer are virtually the same as a normal goods trailer) The nice thing about buyi...

Try Schleggel in Montague Gardens for your axels, wheels and all things trailer related. You know that you are gonna battle to get a licence for a ho...

Had to tow the hilux to the local Toyota dealer and am now doing the wait and see thing (Dont worry, I didn't use the Landy as a ...

Lo all, My Hilux is back up and running. It cost a total of R6940.00 for a new sub, balance shaft, gaskets and other bits. Started her up last night and she purred like when I first got her. (I think that the 90000 km since the last service & oil change had a bit to do with the crank saying howz...

Howzit I have a 2700i 4x2 (still had the plastic covers on the seats when I got it) and apart from being on the 3rd clutch & press. plate, have never had a problem. Tractors kill clutches!!! My Hilux WORKS (tractors, 1,5t trailers and machinery), but sadly died in January (crank said howzit) Wha...
