Hi, great vid. I have also both units, the scangauge 2 And ultragauge MX1.4 from the US set up for the lc200. Stille experimenting with both. Priority set to the individual liking. Engine load, rpm, Water temp, oil temp,auto trans temp, gear, locked or unlocked etc. great little unit not to miss. Cheers

No problems mate. Normally when 'Err' comes up, there is just a minor error within the coding of the 'MX' gauges.

Unfortunately I can't help as I know the codes are different pre-2015 LC200 (facelift)

Hey mate, yes there is no real posted 'average' temp or ranges for this information. For me personally it was just observing and nothing my averages in various conditions.

Is there any particular gauge you are interested in, I could share my thoughts with you? Cheers 👍

@@XploringOz Txs for your response Nathan, I guess the key ones are engine temp, pan temp and torque converter. I reckon the Eng temp should be no higher than 95 and ideally under 90. The pan temp I have seen get up to 117, which I would have thought was too high. And as for the TC, I understand that temps over 120 will be degrading the oil exponentially, and should if at all possible be under 100 or preferably 90. I have Installed a Wholesale Automatic torque converter lockup kit, however it went on the fritz after six weeks and they are replacing it next week. It was doing a great job until then and looking forward to having it back as it kept the temps cool (around 80) and was saving me almost 4ltrs per 100km towing a 3 ton off road van. By the way, love your informative, no nonsense videos mate. Doing an awesome job brother.

@@davideccleston2142 Yeah mate, so my results are this: Engine Temps - Average around 80 degrees, maybe 85 when under a little more load or very hot day. I have seen max of about 106 degrees on a very soft and slow dune climb that required full acceleration for about 45 seconds. As soon as I stopped it cooled straight back down. I have seen it go up to about 95 when under load and overtaking or accelerating up hills etc. Pan Temp/TC - So I was seeing some very high figures before my lock up kit. When I used to tow the van there were times where I couldn't lock the transmission and the pan would sit around 112 and the TC around 125 (not healthy). Since getting the lock up kit, I'm seeing anywhere between 70-85 degrees regardless of load and ambient temp. Very happy with these results and always recommend these kits to those who are towing or modified. Good luck with your new unit, hopefully it doesn't keep causing you issues 👍 Thanks mate, glad you're enjoying the channel.

@XploringOz
@XploringOz 3 жыл бұрын
It is, the gauges will only pick up a small selection of the actual information available through the OBDII port. This is evident when comparing the Ultraguage and my Toyota TechStream software. The UG picks up about 49 gauges, where my TechStream software picks up over 100 and allows for customisation of vehicle settings. The UG for the 4.5L LC200 is specific with it's pre-programmed software, however some units are interchangeable between vehicles. This all depends on the type of software the vehicle is running. Hope this helps, Nathan.

@XploringOz

Awesome mate, I'm sure you will find this handy. So I only really use two alarms. First one being engine temperatures. I set this at about 110 degrees Celsius. The car can reach this during hard hot runs, however it just reminds me to go easy and keep an eye on it. The second being the gearbox temperatures. This is going to vary a fair bit, especially if you don't have a lock up kit. I was easy getting into the 120-130's when towing without the lockup, however now I'll be lucky to get over 90 degrees. The LC200 will also activates its on board factory alarm when the gearbox gets to 150 degrees anyway. Hope this help, Cheers, Nathan.

Hey mate, it's my understanding that these units are generally pre-programmed for specific software for certain vehicles. In the case of the 200 series LC (4.5L diesel) there is specific software that is loaded onto the unit, so I would guess that it probably wouldn't be interchangeable and if it did work, I would guess that most features wouldn't function as intended or potentially not accurately.

@@tomrollings4233 Cheers mate. Appreciate that. So I always run the Ultraguage in the vehicle. When I do my testing, the Ultraguage is disconnected and I use the laptop. Techstream has a lot more detail and information. 👍

Hey mate, So actually not using a lockup kit at the moment. It will be the next modification added to the vehicle as I definitely need it when towing the van. Cheers Nathan.

XploringOz , ok thanks for the reply, it’s interesting as I put a scan gauge in after watching your vid, your review was very good ! I added the tc lock up, but it always said “err” whick I was thinking was error... I have since ordered a Richards kit and am having it installed this week, I’ll look at it again then ... Keep the awesome vids coming

Thanks mate, appreciate the encouraging comments. I have heard of some people having some issues with the 'MX' range of gauges. Some of the forums have come in handy for me when trying different combinations. I also believe there are slightly different codes required for the pre/post facelift versions of the cruiser. Cheers, Nathan.

Hey Mate, can you share what gauges we should monitoring while towing and 4WD driving? Cheers

For sure mate. I guess its going to be up to personal preference, however I find it helpful to monitor temperatures as a priority. Towing puts a lot of strain on the vehicle and associated components, so for me, my towing screen consists of: Engine temp, torque convertor temp, transmission pan temp, intake temp along with boost pressure. I believe that engine and transmissions temps will be a good gauge to detect any faults or issues early. This is not to say there isn't other important data to monitor, however this works for me. Cheers, Nathan.

Hey mate I know it’s on old video but hopefully you can me Some feedback...Iam About to get ones off these off an Australian Ultragauge website based in Victoria...is this still ok or you have to get the USA version? Also for towing was are some acceptable towing temps that we should work within..eg.transmission, coolant, etc etc I have 2016 200 series...any help would be appreciated. Cheers Jarrod

Hey mate, So I have since been informed that these can be purchased in Aus. If they are programmed for the correct vehicle, which I believe they are, buying from Aus would be ideal, much quicker shipping. So I have found coolant temps on the cruiser to be very consistent. They normally sit around the 88-90 degrees Celsius and I've only managed to get it above 100 degrees on a long boggy beach. It terms of towing transmission and torque convertor temps, these can get quite high without a lockup kit. I found I used to get up to 130 degrees Celsius in the torque convertor (when towing), which in my opinion is not sustainable or desired. However, this is still not high enough to set off the factory transmission temp alarm, so Toyota believe it's acceptable for short periods of time. Fitting the lockup kit, I'll be struggling to get temps over 70 degrees Celsius now, towing or unladen. Hope this helps a little. Cheers, Nathan.

Mate I’ve finally got one but now I’ve tried to get the fuel settings right after fill up and it’s saying 45lper 100 and around 400 litres left in tank? Does this take a while to recalibrate? @xploringoz

It can take a while to tune the fuel usage, but when setup its great. I have it in my BT50, when it says i have used 80 litres, thats very close to the amount that goes in.

Hi, I may have missed something but does this unit display an EGT gauge? If not, what do you load instead. Thanks

Hey mate, this unit can on the newer LC200 vehicle (2015+) however the sensors aren’t present on my 2014 model. This being said, I have a video on how I went installing the EGT gauge on the channel 👍
