I watched the video

So the problem is that when driving along it just suddenly throttles down to 1000 RPM and you "lose power" then it returns, then repeat?

That could be a lot of different things. If you don't have a specific code to post then it will be difficult to troubleshoot via the internet. I suggest you take it to a mechanic for diagnosis. Then post he diagnosis here.

This problem is sometimes. When i slow down and then try accelerate throtle going down for a while. Computer connected to diagnostic port cant read any code error.

I think this is traction control problem and cracking noise also.

Do you hear this weird noise through acceleration ?

Is it from the front or the rear? It almost sounds like abs engaging? Just a thought I would bring it to a mechanic as well.

Noise comming from the front.Yes - It sounds like abs working.

Mayby you have any solution for this ?

I live in Poland/Europę . And we don't have many 4R here.

I didn't find mechanic who can resolve it.

Mayby someone have similar problem and can give me advice how to fix this.

Thanks in advance
 
This may sound dumb but hows your battery? We had a Toyota Avalon come into the shop one day that would make a clicking sound after the car was turned off. Turns out because of the battery being nearly dead (car started every time). It threw off the electronics and caused them to make clicking noises.
 
I would try the TRAC and ABS bypass switches....they are nice to have anyhow. Then u can flip them off and see if the problem stops with one or the other. After that you would know if one of those is engaged and causing the issue. After u have it narrowed down you can focus on the issue at hand. Write ups for doing this are in the sticky section.

On a side note where did those guage faces come from?
 
try this, drive with the 4WD on for a few mints (push Button)
then stop and release it from 4WD and revers in straight line for about 50 feet
then see what happens:boink:.

seems very strange - but i'll try it

only ABS i think works fine -only traction try engagin it, when i put brakes i think abs works good

from whitegauges.net - but 2 small gauge - fuel and temperature - doesn't fit ty my 01' version - so i only decided to put 2 big gauges
