Anthony, great advice, but people have lives, I sat there for 18 minutes watching you go over the same thing over and over and over and over again 🥸 please be concise, that way people might be able to watch more of your videos.

I don't even own a diesel and I watch these end to end. Luv ya work.

Absolute legend Anth. Most competent technicians have a quirk or two so keep up the great waffle. I catch myself chuckling away at your similar sense of humour. Thanks again!

Thanks a bunch for the info and banta, getting use to a daily dose of D4 refreshments is most welcoming. The Dealerships can't compete with guy's like you and I, simply because they have massive overhead costs and many non productive staff to support the money grab at the desk. I've been through that and have seen the results first hand, not a great number of experienced techs getting around as they can't afford to pay for them.

You are the best again showing the Toyota Experts

Thanks for the video , I wish I lived closer as I have 2x d4d Prado and hilux , keep up the awesome work .👍🏻👍🏻

Man you waffle!

I wish I could find a channel as awesome as this for Nissan Navaras

Ron Here I have learnt so much in this video thank u

I have to say that Coffs Harbour Toyota have been pretty good to me. I haven't had major problems to test them out, but they were really good in sorting out the warranty dpf issues with my Fortuner. They are reliable and will reduce the quoted service price if they can save time on the job. Very professional and friendly, which is unusual for this part of the world where most business are here for the beach lifestyle and are impossible to get reliable service from.

John from Kenya. Awesome video... I also like your sense of humour 😎😂😂😂

lol should have gone to spec savers 🤣

Bloody legend Anthony. Keep up the great work.

The Toyota dealers in Australia have never fixed hard issues. Always ended doing it myself.

Talkative

I feel your frustration dude.I took a Patrol to a Nissan main dealer a few years ago on behalf of a customer.The Patrol would not rev past 2000rpm's.Long story short they said it was the diesel pump but they couldn't diagnose it properly! 🙈 I bought it home and fixed it myself in 20 minutes,it was a wire off the coolant temp sensor wiring connector. Yet Nissan main dealers couldn't know or find this 🙈🙈😆

They’re a large regional dealer. But they do also sell Nissan and Hyundai.

Main dealers have only one goal, they want to sell you a new car. There work shops are crap.

That is an 18 minute video that should only be 8 minutes long.

Brilliant and informative videos Anthony. I have a 07 Prado 3.0 D4D with 156,000klms. It is immaculate, never towed, never off road and basically just a school taxi. I have noticed a build up of oil on the front of the block just beneath the half moon part of the rocker cover. Took it to mechanic today for a quick look and he said 'likely a cracked rocker cover, so buy a new one'. Just wondering Anthony, is a crack in teh rocker cover a common thing, or is it in your view likely more to be a worn out gasket??? Do i replace the whole thing, or just replace the gasket? Many thanks, Adam

I'd love to subscribe and like your work but that was one of the most frustrating Utube vids I've ever tried to watch. 4 minutes of really good information. Thanks for sharing but the rest...uggghhh..the was painful.

just booked my hilux in for an injector change and clutch replacement at Toyota now I'm completely terrified on what i will get as i know i could do it myself especially watching your guides but have never done this before. How do i find a good Hilux engine specialist in Brisbane ? . Toyota want a $400 inspection for 2 hours before quoting me what i may need of which i already know, Mostly because of your unbelievable series of help provided to all of us, its bloody awesome

Would rather scan the QR code and get it right. Easy to misread those hexadecimal digits !!

Your channel is excellent except for one thing.... you beat about the bush far too much. Get to the point a bit sooner mate otherwise we just end up by skipping forward and sometime just plain lose interest and move to another channel.

Another great video Anth Informative as usual 👍

Toyota thailand Got a 50.000 kms service coz i was planing to cross a boarder into Laos 25 kms into Laos timeing belt warning light came on. This should have been changed at the service. Toyota missed that one. The next service they said i needed shocks but only changed 1. Also if you need service at Toyota around lunch time forget it they all go to lunch at the same time

Wow love the whiners in the comment section crying about the length of the video and how they have limited time but they have time to complain, don't see you whiners making content like this, thanks for the great video Anthony

Correction! 1803 1607 FCFD F0FA FEFD 04FF 0900 F0

Dealers have the worst techs haha - senior techs sit in office and apprentice does all work. I took my car back to Ford cause they left a steering shaft seal half installed after some work. Took it back. Within 5 mins said yep fixed. 5 seconds driving afterwards could tell it wasnt. Fixed it myself when i got home in less than 5 mins. Thats the quality of dealership work ;)

Well if it's a right hand drive Toyota it could be made in South Africa on the machine tools that used to make Holdens in Australia. The tools work properly and accurately now thanks.

Great video mate love your videos you are a top bloke How much for a set of injectors for a 2013 hilux diesel 3L d4d supplied and fitted by you?

Can you be more descriptive in the written topic about what the video will be about?

They have tried to enter C900 instead of 0900, pretty easy to tell the difference seems theres a C in the top section of the code. Personally I've never seen these codes make any difference to fuel economy idling or power, but I still do them anyway. Every time I do a valve and injector set on larger diesel engines I check the trim codes match whats in the ECM, and you find one occasionally is wrong due to roadside replacement or lazy Technician's. Keep up the good work, I enjoy watching people that know what they are talking about.

Denso invented the QR code for improving production purposes. Use the QR code on the injector . With this injector on QR code forget the first lot of numbers and start at the 18 which will give you the 30 digit code

Show us Jacking procedure lifting from front centre point.

I think that they were at maccas when they were meant to learn that job 👍😁I'm just wondering are all the groups ment to be the same on All genuine injectors like numbers groups and letters groups just for future reference ?

Often Dealerships will let the apprentices at these jobs.

O I C what the problem was 🤓

And they say poms whinge..

Some constructive criticism .....perhaps a bit more content and a bit less waffle. I didn't stay to the end to see the conclusion.

Should the "Star" = the number of the cylinder?

So I got toyota to put a reconditioned engine in my car and less the 600ks in 14days my hilux is back in works shop with blowbuy and at the start I bought 3 new injectors as they snapped one in my old engine so they got the 4th injector and injector was folty and the still drove it dont know witch way to go as I spent 12k all up on the motor ,new turbo and other parts they said needed to be replaced

Hi Anthony i like all your information mate

At around 10 minutes in 90% of watchers shot themselves

Did you get the penrite

Great video Anthony, but way too many ads mate, keep our attention with more info we want and less garbage

Did everyone knows the difference between the 173hp prado 120 1kdf and the 240hp 1kdf engine???

Niceee....

Hahhh to much brrbrrr get to the point n fix ! It simple as that !

Far out man Toyota stealerships are awful.

It's that the power steering reservoir on the right with the black cap? The fluid looks rank.

last line should be a 0 not C

Too much waffle, keep it concise

Can you stick to the story, and stop wafflin

All of 16 minutes b4 the point was made. Great info but the unnecessary rambling was irritating!!

Whatis the thing in the RH Top cnr flashing purple a led is it a battery monitor or charger ?

Get to the point talking about what ya can buy for fitty bucks🙄

Good info but you have the mechanics habit of taking 18 minutes to complete 2 minutes of work. Still I suppose the longer the video the more adds can be inserted and the more money you make :)

0900

just get to the point

Ladybouy land

that is a C

1803 1707 FCFD F0FA FEFD 04FF C900 F0 I know I'm extremely late and won't get an imaginary medal, but I wanted to participate 😅 And even I got it wrong 😅

QR CODE (can't read that higgle-dy-piggley dot system - by eye, & so).. Normal Letters and Number Digits. Top line: 1803 1607 2nd Top line: FCFD FOFA Ah - NOW THERE'S A PROBLEM MATE.. IS THAT "0" AN OH - OR A ZERO ? >>>>>>>>>> 3rd line (the one below the raised plastic island barrier): FEFD 04FF (again a dodgy oh/zero) Final 4th line - (below all the others): C900 F0 * Buggah - 4th line ? There's way too many chances of getting them OH's mixed up with ZERO's.. And what the hell is that star for? As for all the other "spare" spoken worded lines ???? They were all inserted there for ear pain effects - & were all done via (even for me) way too much verbose talking? Talking incessantly - to try and focus on way too many things, not just on THIS video at hand, but on here there & even outside around in the backyard that needs fixing some fine (non talking) day too - they are taking forever with wasted words, to blindly go where no one's ears - want you to go. = Total boredom. HOWEVER - here's a wee oversight / undersight - "physical" reading problem - that no one seems to have noticed (or am I just a suspicious Bastard)? The digits on the top are somewhat DELIBERATELY spoiled - in that they actually look as if they are NOT what they first appear as? Like is it really: 1803 1607 FCFD FOFA FEFD 04FF C900 F0 * Or maybe it's deliberately botched so that you cannot read it as it SHOULD be read as: ie: Is it rather a different code altogether. 1803 1607 ... P CFD FOFA ... P EFD 04FF & 0900 F0 * ?? Or are all those zero's actually OH's and should read (as) 18(oh)3 16(oh)7 ... P CFD F(oh)FA ... P EFD (oh)4FF & (oh)9(oh-oh) F(oh) * As that is also a very distinct (deliberately hidden) code. Ah-hah so THAT is what that star is for - the double expletive that includes it a(LL) As in F-OH-ALL
