No, i have full function in L, 2nd and D... just in D there is a lackof power in pull off... im leaning toward solenoid... other wise the symptoms would be across all gear selections?

Jon, what you described is what is happening. the sluggish start is only when facing uphill. Other than that it goes well. and sometimes even uphill it goes well. Just when its hot it plays up. i Guess its worth checking the TPS before i remove the T converter.... now does anyone one know where...

Mine was sluggish (diesel) had the pump and injectors overhauled and my cruiser has serious power now. open road it just pulls on and on. Once it kicks into 2nd it goes very well!! its just that pull of from stand still... i would love if someone could explain it.... im close to having the TC...

Thanks Bob, so if the box is locking up in L- the TC is being bypassed? so if it is weak in D on pull off, is this indicative of a tired Torque Converter? not a slipping clutch pack in the Gbox itself?

So reviving this thread.... i did the G box oils and strainer- it was better... a year and a bit later i had the Injection pump and injectors completely overhauled... $$$ :( but WOW what i difference... my cruiser feels alive and goes really well top end and holds speed on any hill.... BUT...

Great info guys, i will just use the Dex 2 that i have. uHu- i was also thinking that the WS spec is for the 750. when you say the A442f os not that smooth, in which way do you mean? i do get jerking particularly when i pull off from stand still, get to about 40km/h and back off on the throttle...

HI Guys, Ive tried searching but cant seem to find the right info, i have an A442F Auto in my 100 and i would like to know what is the best ATF for the job? Would DEXRON 2 be ok or should i use the Agent spec ws? i plan on doing a Gbox strainer swap and a drain and refill this weekend...

HI Guys. im looking for a front grill for my 1998 LC Prado/colorado. i am in South Africa so it would need to be shipped here. does anyone know where i can get one? i can buy it new from the dealers and about 400 quid! :icon-eek: so i though i might import one price depending. please can you let...

I have to book it on with the dealers as they need to reprogram the keys. just thought some one would have had this issue with there car and it might be known issue.

Thing is it work every now and then..... so quiet intermittent.

Ok so i have had my prado for a while now, Since March. When i got it, about a week later i had starting issues. almost like it was out of fuel. the first time it would not start i though i was out of fuel and so i pumped over from the long range tank. it statred no issue. i though it was this...

Ah...now the Transducer sits on the actual Gear box and i correct? Will it have an electrical connection to it that i can place a meter on there and see if we're getting power to that transducer? Its Bucketing down here and cant climb under the vehicle right now. some time there is a little...

Does the transponder not have something to do with the starting of the vehicle? regards.

So my Speedometer in my 1998 V6 95 works intermittently. There is no pattern to its workings but the last few days it has not worked. I have searched the forum and cant seem to find a thread that deals with this..... i have researched the parts and it either in the cluster or gearbox.... has...

So what you are essentially saying is rather save the money and have the heads ported and put better exhaust inlet and outlet manifolds on over std exhaust? Will i lose low down torque this way? Doodle- when you say remap, do you mean UNI-chip???

Hi Guys! So i have a 95 series Auto V6. i have looked online for various "power Increase" options... all i want is more top end torque. i want to cruise up a long-ish hill will out having to "Kick back" currently i have to switch OD off or press the loud pedal down more. but i would like to be...
