I just picked up a 91 4runner with the 3.0 and automatic transmission. the truck is a basket case but runs and drives. I went out to see how good it would do climbing up a pretty easy sand hill and couldn't make it up... sad moment of disappointment. I tried switching it into low range and the...

Hello I'm new to this site so hope I'm posting in the correct area. I have a 92 Hilux with the ADD system and the push button on the 4x4 shift lever to engage. I recently noticed the front driveshaft turns when the truck is in 2WD. I can go under the truck and grab the front driveshaft and...

Hi all, I am in the process of replacing the CV axles on my 2009 Highlander LTD, 3.5L Gas AWD. And I'm kinda stuck. I started w/ the driver side. The dis-assembly went fine, and I was able to pry the CV axle out. All good. Then, when I removed the driver-side axle, a lot of fluid drained...

My mechanic told me I should replace my transfer case on my 2011 Venza. Why the whole case? Why not just seals, bearings, etc.? Are those parts not replaceable?

After failing to remove the transfer case drain plug with an open end box wrench, I came up with an easy & inexpensive DIY. I had done this Transfer Case Oil Service before on my 2011 HL, but this time I got stuck with a slipping open end wrench. Removing the fill plug was not a problem...

Hello friends, Took my car in for a 130k oil change and rotation, they noted a leak on the transfer case. I'm not sure if this is the same as the known TSB regarding possible leaking and mixing of ATF/gear oil, or if it is the other TSB regarding leaking from a vent - although I think only...

I have a 1989 Toyota 4X4 standard cab that I picked up 2 years ago. It has some jacked up buckets seats from an unknown car so I want to put in a refurbished Toyota OEM bench seat instead. The truck doesn't get much use so I prefer a bench seat in it over buckets. I just picked up a good...

Hello All, Noticed by transfer case is leaking gear oil from the area where the propeller shaft goes out to the rear differential. By looking there are no means of removing it from the diff. There is a flange with bolts (or nuts and studs) at the back of the shaft on the rear diff. Do I have...

I have found this forum really useful, so I thought I'd post to see if anyone has advice on my current breakdown (and for posterity). Three weeks ago I bought a 2003 4wd Matrix. All was good for the first 800 miles, but on Sunday, after about 50 miles on the highway, I noticed a whining coming...

So ive never heard of or experienced this, but the truck I just got (Jim Creek Special) is not driving so hot, it makes a rapid clicking noise like the brake light solenoid and then a sudden thudding slam from what sounds like the transmission (clutch, pressure plate, etc.?). The clicking noise...

I have a 97 Tacoma 3.4L 4x4. Manual 5speed, Manual J gate transfer case.Manual Hubs. Now heres my issue: My transfer case does not engage the front drive shaft. If I lock my hubs the drive shaft is locked so I know its not the hubs that are the problem. If I select 4lo the transmission goes...

My vehicle speed sensor (VSS or Speedometer) broke in half while driving over a speed bump. After about 50 miles of driving, it chewed up the gears and shot a huge hole in the transfer case. I lost all the differential fluid and decided to swap the transmission by myself. I bought a used one for...

I have been searching everywhere and have gotten mixed responses, so I am hoping someone on this forum can enlighten me. I have a 2007 Camry 4 cyl with about 154K miles on it and I have two questions. 1. I had the transmission power flushed (which I am now reading is bad) at about 100K miles...

I'm swapping from my 94' 22re 4x4 to a '96 5vzfe 4x4 setup. I've got my new engine & tyranny. I need to know if the old transfer case will fit my new tranny. If not, will the propr transfer case match up with the front wheels' driveshaft? Any help would be appreciated.

I bought a '07 AWD HiHy with 95K on it and there are no service records of transmission, differential, or transfer case fluid changes. I'm not sure how these vehicles differ from the non-hybrids. Are all of these fluids serviceable on the hybrid? Can anyone point me to the correct fluids and...

So, I have searched this site and Google and have yet to come to a solution yet. -----’97 Camry, 5SFE, Automatic, 210K on the clock Here is the issue: Whenever I put my car into gear I get a repetitive clicking noise coming from the front drivers’ wheel area (about 5-8 fast clicks)...

Hi. We have an '05 Highlander Limited V6 AWD 7 Passenger. It just turned 150K miles and we experienced two losses of Transfer Case Fluid in the past month, resulting in the Transfer Case eating itself Thursday. It has RTV sealant around the ring gear access which looks like where it leaked. It...

I just bought a 98 T100 4wd ExtraCab a few weeks ago. In trying out the 4WD today the truck came to a complete stop when in reverse while in 4H. This does not happen in 2H. Is this a fluid issue or something else? Any help would be appreciated. I have not checked the transfer case fluid or...
