  1. Yes it's consistent. When pulling off, the Speedo only starts to move after around 8mph...
  2. Thanks, will take a look next time I'm under the car.
  3. It's a UK auto Colin. How would I know if diff has been changed?
  4. Driving alongside in other cars, also those radar speed sensor displays at the side of the road.
  5. My wife's 1999 IS200 speedometer is reading nearly 10mph slower than actual road speed which is a pain at speed cameras etc! Been like this since we bought it. Wheels and tyres are all standard size. Is there a fix... I've reset ecu but no different? TYIA.
  6. Well, I think we are going to go for the UK one to be on the safe side, as I know it's exactly the same as whats in the car now. £175 is pretty steep, but just found out the price includes free next day delivery and 1 years warranty Many thanks for all your input guy's
  7. Just noticed that the rad I'm looking at from the states doesn't have the fitting for the expansion tank pipe...
  8. Thanks John, the rad from the states doesn't include the cap, is it a standard fit that I can get from a motor factors?
  9. Tell me about it, here's the actual pic of the top of the rad which I captured from a video I had
  10. Hi Rick, only have this diagram of the radiator showing the bleed screw taken from the uk sellers site.
  11. Hi all, I'm looking for a new radiator for my sons 2001 GS430, I can only find 1 for sale here in UK at £175 plus postage. But it would be a lot cheaper to get one from the states including delivery, duty etc. Only thing is, the american ones have the filler cap, but ours have a bleed screw instead. Does anybody know if this would still be ok as a replacement? Tony.
  12. Well I did the "hack" and it works , but I would still like to replace the faulty sensor. Could you still send me the pages from the manual if possible Rick?
  13. I'm pretty confident with diy on cars, just this one seems to be a major operation! I don't know when the new sensor will turn up... I keep looking at the Bobster hack repair over on CL which would be a temporary fix as my boy needs the car for work (he delivers pizza's in it can you believe!!!). Would be great if you could send me the relevant pages from the manual, that should give me some more confidence... pity about the photo's! Cheers Tony.
  14. Hi Rick, tried to PM you but says your inbox is full. I've seen a topic where you mention you (may) have changed the knock sensor on your 430? My boy now has my 430 and it bogs down giving the PO325 code - knock sensor bank 1. He has ordered a new sensor from the states. Is it a difficult job removing the manifold, and will we need to replace any gaskets? If anybody else have experience with this, please feel free to chip in
  15. Could admin please delete this post as I put it in wrong section!
