I use a chap in Carshalton, just outside Croydon who works only on Toyota's and Lexus's. PM me if interested and I'll pass on his details

Hi Keith,

Tried to PM you but got the below - I would like to get the information of the garage! Thanks!!

Hi Steve - I'd love to take you up on the offer but that's a bit far...I'll have a look around for another garage and see if we can do better down here first! Thanks again.

Hi - I'm told the codes are really not that useful with this age and not specific enough...but I'm no expert.

Hi Steve - well that changes things! Do you think these pumps would be reliable?

The symptoms started with an intermittent failure to start - it cranked/turned over but no firing. The breakdown and garage suggested it was the crank sensor, so we changed this (£200) but then the next day it started and drove for a while but then the power dropped away as I was driving, then failed to start again at all. The garage reckon its the pump, but they are no experts...

Yes, it expensive here, so any suggestions welcome!

cheers.

hi - which website exactly? This one http://www.merlinmotors.co.uk/ ?Thanks.

The garage reckons the Toyota pump is £250 and another £200 to fit...but my fear is other issues may arise, relay etc...is there anywhere around West London that is good with these "old ladies" ??

Hi - after over 12 years of faultless service it may be time to lay my 1996 LS400 to rest...it needs a new fuel pump, expensive to fit but other issues may arise and I don't know if it may begin to cost too much to keep going...it has been an amazing journey but is it time to let go?? I live in West London and if anyone knows a cost effective garage maybe I'll keep it running...

What do you think? Thanks!
