Fido, Id be printing up a few pages from this forum the ones which are indicating they have had theirs changed and taking it to them and be asking why are these ones getting replaced due to the same issue ??? Don't back down or they will bullshit to you. Stand your ground in a nice way, composed lol then if all else fails and they arejust not going to replace it then jump up and down and make a fuss. Generally starting off cool calm and collected will get you further.....Make sure you have written documents of this on going issue.....Cheers Steve

I reckon they will have to honour the issue after warranty as you pointed out to them whilst under warranty. I remember reading somewhere in the same thread for the 120 that people had their shaft changed out of warranty.Originally posted by fido666 View Post
Still better to print off some of these pages and get them to fix it now if you can.2010 150 Glacier White GXL D4D AutoComment

The Service Manager at the dealership knows about the issue but claims swapping out the shaft does not fix the problem and it returns. Yeah right!Originally posted by Riv39 View PostComment

If it doesn't fix the problem then why did Toyota bother to make a new one ??? Wankers. Don't back down, tell them you didn't pay ex amount for a kakadu for it to clunk like a HQ holden........Cheers SteveFace lift 150 Prado V6 auto. No mods yetComment

Fido,
Mine was replaced nearly a year ago and it has been clunkless since - about 15,000 km in that time. Original clunk started at around 7k for me and went thru a few regreasings before replacement.

It might pay to list the actual dealers that have made the warranty exchange, that would add some weight to the argument for those still trying to convince their dealer this is being done.
So I'll start.

Castle Hill Toyota did mine after about four re-grease attempts2010 150 Glacier White GXL D4D AutoComment

My tail shaft clunk has been reported at every service since I purchased the 120 series new in 2009.
It gets greased and works ok for a couple of thousand kilometres before the clunk returns.
Service people have told me in the pass my model isn’t affected or it’s within tolerance.
Its booked in tomorrow for a 70000 k service and the Tail shaft clunk, fingers crossed.

Another service and another re-grease here, let's see how long this one lasts. It's only 2300Ks since they re-greased it last time.Last edited by fido666; 22-02-2013, 10:36 PM.Comment

The day after getting the 10,000 km service I start to feel the clunk.
So thanks to the posts on PP I ring up the dealer. Same old story you will need to bring it in so we can grease it...when I get around to it we will see how we go and what the stories will be.Comment
