Some quick questions about my new GXL

[Hubble80 Member Find all posts View Profile Close Hubble80]

I have just stumbled across the tool kit in the back door. It appears that the tool at the very top is missing. It looks like a spark plug tool goes there, however mine being D4D will not need this. Can anyone tell me what is meant to be in this spot?

Also, I have a Sovereign Bullbar fitted. When I go over some rough roads the bar tends to "wobble". At first I thought it was the reflection coming back through the bonnet protector, but removed it and went for a drive. The bar is in fact moving, only about 10-15mm. It went for its 1000km service today and they "adjusted" the mounting bolts... Is this normal, I thought bullbars are supposed to be rigid as they are mounted to the chassis...

HELP!

Thanks

Peter

The body of a 120 series Prado is mounted to the chassis, via rubber mounts.

Rubber, more like marshmallow :P

The question about the "missing tool" in diesel powered prados must be one of the most common questions asked at Toyota Dealers Australia wide.

Nothing is meant to be there in place of the plug spanner, but it is a good spot to stow a small torch.

My wife is determined to get back whatever it was that was "stolen" from the tool kit..."Do they think we are stupid and haven't realised something is missing" :lol:

Re: Some quick questions about my new GXL

After reading this thread I thought I had better have a look at the tool kit to make sure it is all there as the vehicle was pre loved before I bought it. The only thing missing is the spark plug spanner, and yes it is a petrol model, so not sure if to source another one or just replace it with a samll torch that other have done on here.
