Thanks - sadly my skills aren't up to removing the unit and my electrical guy is slightly wary of it falling apart. He's willing to have a go though. Will see what happens. Thanks for the help :)

Please could anyone shed any light on diagnosing an issue with my radio aerial? 1998 100 Series. I've read a good few helpful threads on here re how to replace the inner mast (thank you), but before I have a go at this I'm wondering if the issue is actually with the inner mast or may be...

Thank you for the recommendation! Happy to wait for the right people :) Cheers

Thanks have you used them? it looks like they've gone out of business from the website and my research?

An update and request. Eventually I went to West Coast Off Road (about 6 weeks ago) and the guy had a look at my 19 year old 100 and said it was a good one, nothing major going on, all good - happy me! But I cannot for the life of me get a quote out of the guy. I'd like it rust proofing...

Just to update you all on this, it was the Power Heater so thank you all for that seriously helpful info! I searched in vain for a second hand one last year, so in the end I just left it and didn't use the air con so it didn't leak. Then tried again this year and behold one came up from a...

Thank you - looks perfect. Also I meant to ask about budget - how do you judge what to spend vs value - or is that a silly question to ask on a forum of landcruiser enthusiasts!!

Thank you! I remortgaged my house to buy it ;)

I've been told a few times that my 100 Series is an import and I'm keen to know if it is or not and any implications on the value? It's a 1998 model, was first registered in the UK in September 98 by a Toyota dealership who then kept it as a demo car for a while. All the buttons on the...

I'd like a 4x4 specialist (pref Landcruiser specialist) to look over my 1998 100 Series, tell me what it needs, can anyone recommend someone a reasonable distance from North West England? My husband is talking about "mopping" the paintwork - yes or no? uHu has recommended rustproofing which...

Hello, thought I should post an intro as have posted a few times and am about to post more questions :) I'm afraid I won't be any use to you all! I bought this beauty to tow my horse trailer :blush: Here goes: Your name: (especially if you're using an alias :roll: ) I'm Cath! Your Cruiser...

Ah, you mean this (yes I have one ) :) I checked and the model codes do match which is FAB :D

Thank you :) useful anyway!

Thank you, makes sense, it is definitely a GX (no leather) and it does have an engine heater but not a rear seat heater. I read that the engine heater was standard on diesel models destined for the UK. I was trying to use this to decipher the model code but it doesn't quite fit the logic...

Hi, Thank you so much for the advise re the Haynes manual - saved me a headache there! This is what I got from toyodiy.com, guess this means it is 100 Series! But it throws up more questions than it answers - e.g. If it is Europe then surely this means it isn't an import, and it says VX when...

Hi again, I'm not a regular poster sorry but please could I ask for some help again? Some of these questions may be a little stupid - sorry for that! I have a 1998 Amazon which I love dearly, I've had it for 10 years and have hardly had to do anything to it, it is now starting to need a little...

Hello again and thanks for all the replies this info is fab :icon-biggrin: T1pper thank you for that info it will help a lot I will check those out. It is indeed a pump separate to the normal water pump right on the top of the engine (but I thought it was to the right I will look again though)...

Hi, I'm new here hoping you can help. I'm looking for a replacement water pump for my Amazon, I believe it is a 100 Series, it is a 1998, GX, 4.2 turbo diesel manual gearbox. I love it a lot, it tows my horse trailer :) I've been quoted £1500 for the part from Toyota which seems a lot! Part...
