Hi to all,
I was hoping to find out if any of you have had a particular problem with your Prado. I have a 2009 D4D prado VX and recently on a trip whilst showing 3/4 tank (950 ks into a full tank) of diesel the car stalled. Roadside assist could not work out what was wrong and after a 100km tow to a Toyota dealer I was told that I had dirty fuel in the tank and they were flushed and the car was good to go. 2 weeks later I was driving to work and the same thing happened (3/4 tank and 900 ks into a full tank). I got roadside assist to add some diesel and the car started straight away. I went straight to a Toyota dealer and was told the jet pump valve was blocked. This was the first tank fill since the original instance. I was told that the fuel in the car was all clear and that maybe in the first instance the jet pump valve was not cleaned properly and once again the tanks were removed. The first time this happened I paid $650.00 to rectify the issue (dirty fuel is not covered by warranty) and I am looking at that again to fix it now. Does anyone have any suggestions as I am at a loss as to what I should do next.
