Oh great its this guy again!!!! Thanks for putting this up BlackWorks! this will certainly help someone like me :first: OK, lets see if I got the formula correct shall we? 1)Info: 2003 Sport Edition V8 (118K) Service done/WP&Belt, diffs, crank, trans, spark plugs/: (Prologue) I am getting a...

J-FYI most of these "radar detectors" are becoming less useful in today's world... Laser technology has all but usurped the need or use of less accurate radar technologies used in police forces. even here in my Podunk town in WY radars are not used any more...(my father is a captain and he over...

this was incredibly hard this round...I like all of the nominees and their rigs...alas THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!!!! :ballchain:

my 03 is running like a top with 117K (drove through the worst winter blizzard I have even been in {44 miles of 12-25MPH} got to a semi road block hauling a 5X8 u-haul I snaked through them and made it out :) it was super satisfying I never slipped an inch) I switched to full synthetic fluid...

I hope I'm not the only one who's scratching his head.... (:wtf:)

my hydro boost unit is also running about every minute as well. as I recall the "resolution" is to replace the unit...you can try the flush or the 50 bake peddle press but neither have worked for me.

great update! I will be looking into these if mine crap out again!

was up late wasting time and I came across these... I have never seen such a good swath of car shenanigans. Enjoy:rofl: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zA40M5kQqv0 my favorite is (5.48) (land rover expedition had me fun hat on... ) Camel Trophy Land Rover Years - YouTube

ooh dat's nice

how many miles? when was your last differential fluid change? how many miles did you put on it after the CV swap did you start experiencing vibration? and then how much after that was the failure. sounds strange... what was the reason for replacing the CV's in the first place?

If they are telling the truth and the car (was lived in as you describe) maybe she never cleaned the undercarriage either. just my country mind here but... if you have ever gotten into gumbo (mud) its not like you can just hose it off... its thick and needs to be scrapped off. From your pick...

interesting i will start looking for it and post it if I find it. whats your take BlackWorks? I have seen the fram filter cut open and srsly will not be buying any more of those but from what I remember the Toyota OEM he cut open was just as good as the premium brands. As a tech have you seen...

So whats the verdict here, does it even matter since they are all Toyota branded? how much better could the "supra" filter be compared to standard OEM if you change your oil regularly?? I feel like a little better flow can be expected but I doubt that it will be a big difference.

I think I need to replace mine.... I went the wd40 route and also a ngl#2 synthetic but it just keeps coming back... does anyone have a part number for this or know what they cost? arm and a leg? who am I Shiva?:suspicious:
