On New Years day my friend lost his 100 Series LC when a fire completely detroyed their car and their All terain CT. They were on there way from Sydney to Perth and just outside Port Augusta, they smelled smoke. He pulled over and saw flames beneath the car, but had no luck in putting them out with the fire extinguisher he had with him. In no time the fire spread to the trailer and within minutes everything was gone. Talking to the Fire Department guys afterwards, they said it is a common problem when the automatic transmission overheats, that the ATF can overheat and leak out onto the exhaust, and ignite.
Has any of you heard of this before especially regarding the LC100/105 and Prado series?
