Looks like you've been busy Andy! I had the diff whining on the Sprinter when we first got it. Took me a good while and a bit of trail and error to narrow it down to that tho!

Thanks Andy! That sounds a bit more like it. @chapel gate is this something you still supply?

Could anyone suggest where to order washers, gaskets, bolts etc from? I am being quoted over £200 from our local Toyota. Is there anywhere I could go to save on these? Cheers, H

I’m going for it. Plan to order the parts next week with a view to doing the job the following week. I’ll be reading through past threads and have got the guide from Baileys (I have seen their torque values are incorrect). Any tips/tricks/must knows that anyone thinks I might miss please let...

I owned up in the initial post No problem spending the money on doing the injectors, I just worry that there is some damage/weakening already been done and it’s now a ticking time bomb! Maybe I’m being overly pessimistic?!

Managed to get plugged in today. The readings above are with then engine warmed up. Running at 176F which I think is abit colder than it should be? Looks like I’m gona have to stick my hand in my pocket!

Pleased that the strainer is fairly clear. Will get it plugged in asap and get some readings. Thanks for all the help and suggestions.

Thanks Karl, I’ll put a few pics up once I’ve got it off. The price quoted is for them to have my old injectors in return for refurbed ones.

Full service next week and will be sure to check the sump. Will also get it plugged in and get some live data. I need to try and find out all the values to look for as well as the injector feedback values. (If anyone has all these to hand it would be appreciated, otherwise I’ll be doing...

Hi All, My second post on here. The first being a few years ago before I ended up buying the worst car I have ever owned, a Disco 2. Anyway, the good news, I have now got myself a 2004 120 Landcruiser with 185,000 miles. It has a full service history with it and the underside isn’t...

Hi MWHTC, Have you still got this for sale, looks like I’m abit late to the party here! Cheers, H

Hi All, The search continues but I am going to view a 2005 120 tonight which seems promising. The one I am viewing tonight has a few mods (nothing drastic - snorkel, belly plates, side steps). Spoke to Adrian Flux today to enquire about insurance on it and they are coming in at £860 with all...

Got the opportunity to drive a 120 this weekend. Certainly on the menu now. Not written off a 95 by any means but if a tidy 120 came up for the right money then I think I’d struggle to say no now!

Think it’s worth the road trip on Sunday then, I will let you all know how I get on. Any suggestions for under chassis treatments if it’s a goer? What sort of money are we looking at. Is waxoyl as bad as people say?

Hi All, See attached pictures of the not so shiny side of the 95 I am looking at. D4D engine, 2002. One thing I am seeing alot of talk around is pack of modification options to them (as mentioned above) things like roof racks etc? Is this really such an issue. I have had a look round in a...

Really appreciate the offer mate. Looks like you’re best part of 3 hours away still, the motor is in south Devon.

I’d not really considered a 120, any big selling points over an 95? Who are folks insuring Landcruisers with, in-particularly those with some modifications on. I’m guessing some of you are getting pretty good deals on classic car insurances? I have just done a quick insurance check for the 95...

Im trying to get hold of some photos of the underside at the moment. I will post them up here when I get them through. I agree Mick, I think I will be racking some mileage up having a look. No probs Andy, thanks for the offer! I am in Lincolnshire so not a million miles away from yourself.

Thanks for that Andy, this is exactly the sort of pointers I was looking! The Collie is in the south/south west of the UK. If you were close by there would certainly be a beer in it for you.

Thanks for the replies guys. I think I have talked myself out of the 80, certainly for now at least. It doesn’t quite fit the bill or the budget at the moment. The Collie I am looking at is the 3.0 D4D. Are people finding parts are still readily available for these? Also accessories and mods...

Hi All! I have been doing a lot of reading across the forum and I think now is a good time to introduce myself. Originally I set out looking for an 80 series, after realising that the finding right 80 series for the right money is like looking for rocking horse … I’ve started to look at a...
