Buying used Navara

Good morning tuners, Can anyone advise on the models that Massy had for the Navara (old model like 2014)? I'm asking because I'm looking for a used van and coming across some differences but I'm not familiar with them. So for example: some have a black antenna at the lower left hand corner of the fr...

BP5 Radio Worries - Help!

Legacy ppl: My pops bought a foreign used 2008 legacy wagon NA, but the radio barely picks up the local stations. He had the band expander installed and it picks up stations in the retarded way up to 89.9 (equivalent to 99.9 FM). However those stations that it does pick up are really low quality exc...

Re: NZE161. 2013 Fielder......Blinged out !

Looks nice. And you say TTTL has it? I wonder if they left out all the cool features that the foreign used cars come with and brought the usually overpriced basic model?
Having a 142 fielder I can only imagine how great this car will drive. Missing the Temperature gauge though...

Re: Steering rattling on ZRE-142 Fielder

Just to update: I had the problem somewhat resolved by a mechanic who basically removed the finishing below the steering column in order to access the coupling (as described above by Hook). The bolts turned quite a bit but he noticed the coupling looking as if it were worn and recommended replacing ...

Re: Steering rattling on ZRE-142 Fielder

Yea I had rocked the steering for him and we did test drive the car where he heard it for himself. But i know he only checked the front suspension the usual way and nothing inside, so i'll check him back on that or take a look myself. Thanks for the assistance.
BTW is this dangerous in anyway?

Steering rattling on ZRE-142 Fielder

As the topic says, I've got a rattle on my steering when driving on rough roads. It's heard from the driver seat and can also be heard when the car is parked and you turn the wheel back and forth fast. Told my mechanic about it but he said he checked the front suspension and everything looks fine. I...

Could anyone verify the exact colour code of the limited production Z-Tune R34 Skyline? All I've gotten thus far is that it's named "Z-Tune Silver" and the code may be KYO but could not get anything shade specific...

Any help is appreciated.

Re: The Fielder wagon Q & A Thread ....

I have a 142 fielder as well, never changed the cvt oil but it's way overdue for a change now. Was going to replace a gallon of fluid (i only got 1 gl of tc toyota fluid) last week but my mech couldn't locate a refilling point. He tried to remove a whitish plastic plug at the top of the unit but it ...
