Hilux 4x4 Forum

Hi guys, On my way back from the Secunda this weekend my W56 gearbox (1999 2.7 Hilux; 3RZ-FE motor) decided that he just couldn't go on anymore. Long story short: The flange of the oil replacement bolt on the gearbox has broken off, or a piece of it at least.(I hope this is the correct wording. This...

Ek het nou gou 'n toets gaan doen. Hy hou op met shudder sodra ek die clutch intrap. Dit sê vir my net een ding.......gearbox?

Dankie Marius.....ek was al deur al die fuses maar het dalk net iets gemis. Sal weer deur al die fuses gaan.

Thanks

Hi Guys, The past weekend we went on a 4x4 outing and at one stage had to pass through some deep water containing a lot of grass afterwhich the airbag light to the left of the rev counter came on and does not want to go off. Can anyone please give me an indication of where I can start looking for th...

My trok!
