Yes. I had it 2 weeks ago in a late 2004 petrol GXL auto - same configuration. I would get the Toyota repair manual worksheet and work through the problem rather than just replacing the sensor. In my case, I believe it the wiring harness was dirty, so I removed/replaced/cleaned the sensor/harness with a bit of carbi clean. Works flawlessly now. Plus you might have to reset the code, if you haven't already done so.

We had the same issue. Mechanic blamed the battery. I wasn't convinced. Turned out that the alternator was stuffed. As it was not charging the battery properly, the battery voltage would drop. Some electronic components are more voltage sensitive than others, which meant that some components would work while others stopped. As the voltage dropped further, more things stopped working.

Hi my question is. My sister in-law owns a Toyota prado 2009 I think and she has come up with problem stating that when she is driving it will suddenly brake and pull to the left and tell her she is driving erratically. Is this something that can happen?

J150 GXL (2009-2020)

Our car was having issues starting, so we replaced the battery last week and all was good until this morning. It started fine but when I went to accelerate away from the kerb the engine just stopped. I put it back into park and tried again which again was an easy start and I reversed back along the front of my house..then I put her back into drive and she accelerated like there was no problem. It’s a push button start and hadn’t been started since Sunday. I know my husband pushed the start button twice that day to let me wind a window up when he’d already turned the engine off. Like going to the accessories..maybe he didn’t ‘turn it off’ properly and the battery was a touch depleted. Help!!

Hello,
My 2004 prado j120 diesel just suddenly wont start and the fuel gauge doesn't move.
It was working well this morning, very full tank of fuel, all lights working but suddenly won't start.

It was very windy and rain tonight and thats when it happened.

Any ideas anyone???? I literally am in the middle of the bush (mfuwe, Zambia) so no quick runs to a toyota dealer for me.

TIA

My muffler makes a whining noise when the air conditioner is on.how can I fix this ?

I know this may sound wierd, but check it is not the numberplate vibrating and causing the noise. Has this with our 150. If that is ok, check elsewhere underneath the vehicle. I assume it does it with the a/c on as the engine is under a greater load than when idling with a/c and vibrates.

I have a Toyota Prado 2004 Petrol v6 that is sporadically not starting, it will turn over but not start. My mechanic thought it was the airflow sensor which we replaced and seemed to work for a couple of week but now it seems that it is not getting any spark so now thinks it is the crank angle sensor. Has anyone had this issue? and if so do you have to just have to replace one sensor or is there others that work in union with it?

J150 GXL 4 Cylinder, 2.8 Litre Automatic (2015-2020)

Purchased this vehicle for caravaning. Went from Coff's Harbour to Glenn Inness and got about 15litres/per 100 kilometres. Which we thought was great. We inadvertently left the caravan plugged in and it completely drained the battery. Since then the economy has been horrible, about 28l/100kls at reduced speed ie 80 kph.

Did the flat battery effect on board computers to drastically reduce fuel economy or is there another issue?
