Servicing a 2.4l Diesel Hilux bakkie?

Hi,

I'm going to help out a friend with servicing his 2.4l Diesel Hilux (SFA shape).
Can anyone help me with part numbers for :beg::
1) oil filter
2) diesel filter
3) air filter
4) Oil (e.g. 15W40?)

He doesn't have the bakkie's owner's manual anymore, does anyone have a PDF manual?

Re: ABS Light comes on

Baie dankie.
Sal vir Francois n luitjie gee. Het die sensor self al na gekyk, en skoon gemaak (was vol grease) en na Toyota in Malmusbury gevat vir n check. Hul het gesê dat die drade lyk fine, maar hul sal moet oop maak en kyk.

ABS Light comes on

Good day.

I've been having trouble with my 2001 Hilux. Ever since I had the CV boot replaced, the ABS light comes on when I drive :frustrated: . ABS seems to work fine. Have somebody experienced this? Where is the best place to have it checked out in the Cape Town area.

Thanks in advance

Re: Fuel consumption V6 over 4000km

That is a very good average for that speed and assuming you must have been loaded to the max.. What is your average under normal conditions (100-120km/h)?

What steering shock should I get?

Hi,

I need to replace my Hilux's (2001 2.7i Hilux) steering shock. What brands should I look at and what prices should I expect? I am not doing heavy 4x4ing with the bakkie.

Re: Advice needed: 3l D4D or 4l V6

Thanks for all the replies.
I agree, at the end it depends on what you want in a bakkie. My understanding is that the V6's engine will last longer and to service it would be cheaper than the 3l D4D.

Re: 2700i valve noise cold start

I have noticed the same with my 2.7, although not every time. If the engine has hydraulic lifters (which I am not sure now), that might be the problem. Once engine is hot or warm, the noise is gone.
Can anyone confirm if the engine uses hydraulic lifters, shims or adjustable rockers?

Thanks

Hi,

The previous owner of my 2001 Toyota Hilux, removed my rear wheel carrier (the one that fits underneath the load bin).
Got a quote from the dealers = R1800 to get a new one. Does anyone know where I can get a secondhand one or just one for a better price?
