Its not the oil pick up,.!!
After spending 6 hours at the dealership today while they danced from one job to another, they finally got to pull the sump off, guess what the pick up was ok and not blocked. Then inspecting to sump there was metal pieces in the bottom, not alloy. They look like bits off a gear or something.
Now what? any ideas ####? They did confirm there was no oil pressure with an external gauge.
One thing is for sure thare has been a major Toyota failure!

Yes mate I was there, I was under the car when they dropped the sump, the oil was very thick! I have an oil sample.
Its not alloy, its steel, done the old magnet trick.[COLOR=#0000ff][/COLOR]120 Series Prado 2008 Dec - Diesel Auto - One owner with FULL Toyota service history - [U]D4D FAILED at 128,000klms[/U] Central Australia after Simpson Desert Crossing - Counter balance shaft failure - Our Toyota servicing dealer of 7 years didn't care, Toyota Australia didn't care - Installed brand new long engine,....

Usually caused by people.
Timing gear case may need to be removed next.

Top picture left side.
Wouldn't you spew, if you spent thousands getting injectors changed & related work & they were getting put in an engine with a tiny crack, which is still on the way to failure.
Imo Piston inspection & compression test are a must when replacing injectors.
To be honest, you could even miss that small crack on inspection.
Rattle rattle rattle.........?

That very poor from the dealer FWD17.
If you don't hear anything next week, ask to speak to the dealer principal.[B]Robert
