DP chip. Wasn't advised there could be issues if I chose not to upgrade exhaust straight away either. A big drive combined with towing, big hills and a hot motor and BAM! Have also been advised to have an Exhaust manifold pyrometer installed. Put it down to experience I guess07 D4-d GX Prado, steel cargo racks, 2" lift with poly A/bags in the rear, BFG AT's, Safari snorkel, 2 way, diff breathers, electronic rust protection, Donaldson back up fuel filter, 6 x IPF spotties, ARB c/coded Delux B/bar and under body protection, Black widow draw system with c/barriers, dual batts with Engel 80ltr fridge/freezer and plenty more on the 'To Do' list!Comment

Exactly, but with this bomb, I'm messing with it a bit, it's really mistreated. See what happens.Originally posted by Bushbasher View PostComment

Ok So my mate got his car back..Originally posted by Anth120playdo View Post
To give you guys a bit of history, the car has always had synthetic oil put in it from new, however the last service (about 5000ks ago) they put in normal mineral oil.
Toyota checked injectors and ran some tests and found everything to be ok.
They flushed out the mineral oil and filled it up with synthetic and the rattle is less noticeable.Comment

Interesting, might be worth asking for the actual injector feedback results anyway...Originally posted by Nightrod111 View PostCheers

Does anyone have a reputable suggestion where in Sydney I can get the injectors tested/checked? Preferably on the Northern Beaches (or Botany area).

Have a look at the web site for Bailey Diesel Group - they seem to be the Australian guru's on all things diesel - CRD in particular. They do after market injectors rebuilt and blue printed. There is a lot of good info on their site, which I have found very helpful in understanding Prado fuel systems.Comment
