Show me something more painful than it. Today poured coolant in radiator and in evening the water body started leaking.

I've a question that after getting the water body fixed, can i add any coolant to fill the radiator as nearly half of that coolant got spilled? Need guidance.

if u add water then the existing coolant will be diluted and loose its intended use and fucntion.

its better that u add coolant and utilise the existing coolant in the system.

if u add water then there will be no way to reverse it and practically u will waste all of it.

my 2 cents.

If it is the case then already wasted bhai.

Added water?

Yup bhai.

Since water body created all this fuss, so change it with a new Taiwanese one. Now apparently there is no leakage as radiator is new, hoses are perfectly fine & now also got the water body change.

It's been a month I'm using it as my daily drive, and alhamdulillah I there is no fault that I can see and even there is no significant oil seepage. Now I'm thinking about going for cosmic things like snorkel, 42" led bar, bug shield & spot/fog lights. Any recommendations?

Why is this thread so dead. Guys do share pictures of your 4runner / surf, and also tag other members.

Surf's original headlights were not good so I got him new hids. I always use low beams and it works really good like any other halogen light. Attaching picture of its high beam it can make the other person blind.

Which HIDs did u use? Care to share name/ shop/ details?

xenerking (xenerking) 2022-08-04 10:21:12 +0500 #52

even at low beam, they scatter and make on comers blind, if HID is used in halogen reflectors

Yesterday, took him to mechanic for brake service. Now I've a question, what can I do to get rid of those interior noises, specially when driving on a bad road or crossing cat eyes?

Bhai do share its pictures, would love to see it.

Anyone, please tag some senior members or someone who have dealt with same noises. Because even though the rattling and squeaking is mild but still it really annoys me.
