01/00 KZJ95R RV 1KZ-TE
I've disconnected the battery for replacement. Now when I start up it beeps 30 times then stops and again when switched off. There's no warning lights on the dash to indicate the problem. Any help would be appreciated

Hi all, I have a prado 2000. My problem is, when I engage in 4X4 H and go onto a dirt or gravel road, the front wheels tend to sway left, and when i try to correct it it sway to the right. I can feel it on the steering wheel the gentle pulling to the sides. I took it to a 4x4 specialist, but they told me there was nothing wrong. because I drive it every day, I beg to differ. Any advice please?

Please provide more information. where is the water leaking from? what colour is the water? how much it is leaking? is the car over heating? do you have to regularly top up the fluids?

Hello Sam Thanks for your reply, I have traced to problem, I over filled my radiator reservoir on 2 occasions, which caused it to overflow when it was cooling down in my garage. I have not refilled the reservoir, have kept an eye on the temp. gauge which has been normal at just below half after a week of driving and no water under neath the car. Thanks Again Sam Regards Rob

I would recommend you buy a even better 4 wheel drive such as a suburu or a bmw
I would recommend not to bother with old type vehicles - unless it's a superior brand. Toyota used to be good when they made steel engines but, now they've switched to alliminum I would suggest against purchasing

Hi my 2002 petrol prado is hard to start ....it cranks and winds over fine just won't fire straight away ....then you turn the key again and it fires up straight away .....it used to fire up within half a crank which it does now on the second turn of the key....ive replaced spark plugs at 140;000 Km it's now got 220,000 but Toyota reckon they couldn't find the problem, thought it was to do with antithieft devise.....?? Any ideas?

Change the plugs again, use the iridium ones, they are great !

More likely a fuel issue. No fuel at piston on initial ignition. Consider filter change or injectors clean via additive.

I did wonder about changing the fuel filter ....i think ill do that as I don't no when it was last changed and I'll throw some additive at it and see how it goes .....bit cheaper than a set of plugs ....so I'll do that option first....
Thanks very much for the feed back

Thats a very good price. I just bought exactly the same car in WA for more. The old chap is providing a bargain for you.
