One for the experienced self servicers..
Been looking after standard engine servicing and parts replacement on the 90 for the last 3 years. With money getting tighter, I'll be doing all maintenance myself now.
My questions are twofold:
First is about gearbox and diff oils. What should I be using and how often should they be renewed. I don't have the owners manual, and have had it done by Toyota before and forgot to ask.
Second is about a steering rack bush. Will need to replace as the passenger side one is showing play and will likely fail the DOE test (MOT) is this a difficult job? I'd consider myself a reasonably handy driveway mechanic, but don't have a lift or the like.
(Tried a search, but found 80 stuff mostly)
Thanks for reading my silly and long post
