  3. hi there just done gearbox oil, V160 from toyota still available no probs. part no. 08885-01306 for 6 sp getrag box.
  4. i have the Exide Maximma 900 Deep Cycle biggest batt to fit, slight adjustment is necessary got it direct from exide £195+vat, also done power earth upgrade, solved a couple of electrical issues i was having, also the car when warm idles alot lower. told a mate of mine about the battery,he somehow managed to get one from Dingbro for only £95 they prob made a mistake or something,try giving them a ring if they quote you the same snap it up quick. if your running amps and stuff its ideal, i bought a few batteries before,this one i'll be taking out if i sell the car!
  5. i think i'll add aswell i asked the same question. Charcoal Cannister. if the noise bugs you, open the petrol cap to release pressure, the noise should go away. i only know this because of this wonderful place.
  6. hi Jake, i was talking about removing the material on the undertray not the undertray itself, that material on there was totally knackered and soaked with water from the rad, so i have binned it anyway,the undertray itself is now cleaned up shining ready to go back on. the material is the same as under the bonnet which i have removed also. thank you for helping. Regards Rahile. ps. should be getting my new rad today !
  7. Hi there yeh will look into the grill, i have some lying about somewhere. will take the intercooler out also, if thats in bad shape will change that too. oh yeh the plastic guard under the engine, that was really bad, took it off, gave it a good clean, the material type stuff on it,is that just sound proof stuff? can i bin it,cause its pretty bad or will i have to get a new one? regards Rahile
  8. OK took the rad out last night i thought my car was clean, the amount of crap in there, leaves, paper, fag ends etc. drained the purple fluid that was in there, and also bits of the old cap also came out. defo need new rad because of the chunk out of it. i called almost everywhere inc. ChrisW(cheers)ScotRad Serck etc. one of the guys said yeh will get you a new RAD £125+vat (not exchange)from manufacturer Nissens, but i called Nissens direct, they told me they only do rad upto 93,ChrisW said same MkIII job. ordered new rad from Toyota £300 inc. vat after discount with 3 year warranty.del 3 days. i am not really too pissed because the old rad is in pretty bad shape,esp towards the bottom end where all the crap is stuck to it. now i'm gonna start cleaning out all the crap which will prob. take a while, my car is a 96 model and that was the cond. of it, i would recommend owners to atleast remove all the crap that gathers over the years.
  9. hi jake, local rad shop quoted £86 to recon the rad, i will try and do what you said, but what about the chunk i took out of it(see pic) with new cap on, water runs through to the other plastic tank,thats not suppose to happen is it?
  10. hi all, i have just knackered my rad. i think. old rad cap was broken, half of it was still stuck in the rad,so i got a pair of pliers and thought i would remove the rest of it, only after i took a chunk out of it realised that was from the actual rad itself. yes i know i f***cked up big time! anyway after i took out what was the rest of the old cap, i saw a small metal ring floating past. any suggestions or is it def new rad. when i put the new cap on(TRD) then squeeze rad hose water flows through to the exspansion tank, is that suppose to happen. what about the floating metal ring. PLEASE HELP !! Regards Rahile
