1999 Toyota Hi-lux RZN169R -- JRMDKQ review from Australia and New Zealand
"This a very reliable 4X4"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Tail shaft uni joint replaced 135.000Km.
Rear main oil seal leaking 147.000Km.
RH wheel bearing replaced 156.000Km.
Rear RH shock absorber leaking and replaced 170.000Km.
Front arm rest in the center cracked.
General comments?
I love my 4X4 Hilux Dul Cab.
We live in Melbourne, and for our holidays we took a Camper Trailer and two children to the Outback SA, NSW, QLD.
Tyres were a big expense, but I run Discover S/T Cooper tyres that come with a factory 50.000 Km guarantee. and still have plenty of tread. Will definitely get more Km than 50.000Km.
Run a 60Lt Engle fridge with two 6v batteries, charged with a solar panel and a car battery.
Can any one help me? I am after a repair manual for this 1999 4X4 Hilux?
