Thanks for the input. Did find a funky suspension bushing. It turned out to be auto lock hubs. One was worn, the other was totally stuffed. Fixed one and took the other out for now. Now my Patrol is...

Time to change out my power steering fluid in my Y60 TD42. First time I have done it on this vehicle. Any tricks to watch for? In my other vehicles it was pretty simple. Find a low spot, disconnect a...

Thanks for all the suggestions. Will be checking these things out. A mechanic friend here also suggested it is the auto lock hubs giving trouble. Not engaging properly so making noise then...

I had a similar problem and went to a fully synthetic gear oil. It helped a lot and made for smoother shifting all around. I never thought that using a synthetic would make such a difference but it...

Hi! I have a 97 Y60 with TD42 non turbo about 250K on the clock. Pretty standard machine with no mods. I get a strange noise, kind of a buzzing/ rattling noise on occassion. It is not overly loud....

Thanks to all for the hints on the body creaking. Same problem with mine. Will take a look...

Very nice! Thanks for posting these

Mine (non-turbo) takes 9.5 litres when you change the filters, which shoudl be done every time. Cheap insurance, I figure.

Might be worth getting it checked out. I had that happen to me twice (neither vehicles were Patrols though). Once was on my vehicle. turned out nothign was wrong except the sensor for the gauge. The...

Amazing trip and great photos thanks for showing us.

nothing like a V8 to stir the heart

Great photos and looks like a beauty drive. Thanks for sharing.

Interesting project and would love to have mine quieter - but looks like plenty hard work!

Now thats a nice one! Thanks for sharing.

I dont see a problem - go with it! It could be worse - you could have an addiction to Hilux, inwhich case we would need a cure.

Unbelievable! Looks like something from Hollywood.

Nice one! Nice place to lose a vehicle.

Thanks for that posting. Great info. I was considering giving it a go, but now I dont think so. Looks like its a bit over my head. Dont want to start a job and then bugger it up.

Nice one - all terrain, all weather!

Not to be controversial here - but just asking - does the brand of filter really matter? As long as it is a quality manufacturer and filters are changed regularly? Anyone have a link to any kind of...

I have the same leaking problem. Thanks for all the info on this thread. It gives me a place to start looking for the problem. Great to be part of this group!

I just made some up for the ones that were missing on mine. But I like the leprechaun idea; they would be really handy - where do you get those? At the end of a rainbow?

Just new to this group and looking for solutions to issues with my Y60. Same problem with mine. good to know I am not alone. I wont worry about this one till I have some time and am feeling relaxed...

Nice one! Very "cool" :wink: on the glacier.

Great to join this group. Look forward to some good discussions. Enjoying our 1997 Y60. Almost 250,000km and still going strong!
