Re: Suspicious green box
Hi Shirom, A while back BP had a system (maybe they still do) where you could fill up and the amount is debited to an account, company account normally and they gave a bulk discount. Masana was the scheme name I think. The system worked like this: The nozzle from the fuel pump has a sensor and it is...

I see from the post Oooms and Donkey have some suggestions and pm's were sent. Would someone be so kind to forward me some of those mails please. I also have some ideas w...

I started with the diagnosis: - bridged tc and e1 in the diagnostics port and counted the flashes - 49 flashes which ...

Re: Engine sitting at 172,000 Km's and with problmens
Ai Martin what a story, I wonder if my ticking noise is maybe my injectors. I am going to take my car to Dastek in Monument Park and they must test the injectors and remap my chip. Will also ask them about the valves.

Re: Recommended workshop in Pretoria?
Try Dastek. Look up details on net. I have had a couple of things done there and always very happy. Recently had injectors serviced at them. Good service and right price.

Re: Radio Modification
On my 2010 Prado 150 the greying out of various functions on the screen also irritated me and also loads of other owners. Ask your local Toyota agent as they are sometimes willing to install a switch (at your own risk) so that you can operate the functions that are grey'd out. It is apparently just ...

Re: Hilaksie kry n snorkel
Ek wou dit al lankal doen, maak net seker dat waar die gat in die body gemaak is goed behandel is met 'n roesweerder of in tyd gaan jy probleme kry.

Ek het voorheen al asyn gebruik of suurlemoensap, laat bietjie staan en kook hom dan, as die brandsel nie te kwaai is dan sal dit afkook. Sterkte!

Re: 2003 KZTE Noise
Ek is nogal pynlik oor die Hilux so alles is tip-top. Die bottel is silverskoon en die coolant word elke 2 jaar geflush. Die geluid kom def van die enjin self. Het jy al ooit valve gaps gestel?

2003 KZTE Noise
I have noticed that my KZTE has developed a noise and it only really noticable on start-up in the morning, sounds like loose tappets of old. Vehicle has 200 000km's. Should I maybe have the valve clearances checked and set? Any other ideas? It is definately engine related - but sounds to be head not...

Re: KZTE Overheating Issue
Thanks everyone for the advice. I have replaced the thermostat and coolant and flushed the engine, I also cleaned the radiator and intercooler - not a difficult job but takes time. I agree, I will change coolant and thermostat every 2 years and maybe, just maybe I'll buy a new radiator and install t...
