[@rightlanehog3151]

AMD, The most common problem with the Land Cruiser 200 Series and LX 570 is that we CANNOT AFFORD them. 😉😂🤣 Having said that, we do wish Toyota would bring us some of the simpler, more affordable versions of the Land Cruiser they sell overseas. 🤞🤞

[@electrikoptik]

Well, we will be getting the Prado in the US simply badged as ‘Land Cruiser’. It’s been announced.

[@daddygonzalez8405]

​@@electrikoptikthat's not a land cruiser though

[@Sonofiraq24]

[@electrikoptik]

@@daddygonzalez8405 The Prado is just as much Land Cruiser as the bigger 200/300-series and 70-series Land Cruiser. The LC Prado started as a light duty version of the 70-series in 1984 which later in 1990 evolved to the J70 LC Prado. Afterwards came the J90, J120 and the current J150-series. The bigger 300-series is more robust and heavy duty but that does not make the LC Prado ‘lesser’.

I do not own either a Land Cruiser or Lexus LX570, and probably never will. So why am I watching this video? Because this guy is good!!

[@christopherdiaz1350]

You are the man! I have spent months researching for 200 or LX 570 and this video has helped me so much. Everyone talks about how bulletproof they are but no one talks about key issues to look out for. It's always landcruiser last forever and just look for rust but that's about it. I don't want to spent top dollars then have to spend top dollar to fix it. If I do at least would like to know what I am getting myself into. Thank you so much for this video.

[@robertherrmann4823]

LC are hard to find. LX more likely especially one not taken off road. Best advice is find a good shop that specializes in LC/LX and spend the few hundred bucks on a thorough documented pre purchase inspection.

[@epoxy1710]

My 2010 diesel LC200 has 520.000 km, had two small problems, my car lives in the worst conditions a car can exist in. Replacing the oil every 15.000km and tectyl treat the car every 3 years is the key to few problems. Rust is the main cause for expensive repairs for LC200.

[@QnA22]

May I ask what top dollar is? I bought mine and thought it was truly expensive. LC200 2008 V6 Petrol 124.000km for almost 13.000 Euro. No rust, basically perfect condition. But still.... 15 year old car for that price, ouch.

[@christopherdiaz1350]

This is true of every Toyota to be honest. The kool-aid drinking fan boys do an excellent job of covering things up and making you think you’ll never need a repair done ever. They need repairs and maintenance just like anything else. yours truly, 1995 4Runner, GX460, and LX570 owner.

I had an LX470 and thought it was the best car I ever owned until I upgraded to a 570. Upgrade if you can, you won’t regret it, but I do regret not keeping the LX470.

[@aaronmacy9134]

Lol, the worst ones are on the Land Cruiser subreddit when someone posts a question about which to buy. They talk about the LX’s AHC like it’s riding around with a Range Rover’s air suspension yet never mention anything about LC’s with AHC ever having a problem. Then they talk about the 20/21” rims like they turn the LX into an AWD Sienna off-road. “Oh myyy gwaaaaahd those LX’s! They’re just teeeeahrrible! The fancyness just ruins them!” -Idiots.

[@redfalcon4469]

I am an owner of LC200, add to that: 1. Crack of top plastic of the radiator. It happens more to one’s with more driving cycle and cold climates. 2. Coolant leak from engine underneath the intake manifold, leak can be seen from bottom on the torque converter housing. 3. Sunroof drain plugs and leaks, water can go through the roof tell the kick of panel you have shown. It will corrode the big wire connection. 4. Rotors will warpage even through the brake pads still thick. 5. Transfer case actuator do go bad after some time and needs replacement. It will require dismantling the transfer case. 6. Be carful when you replace the air conditioning filter, put the ac at recalculation mode or you will brake the blind door. 7. 2016 and up do have more problems with blind doors actuator going bad. Thank you for the informative Video👍 If I am not mistaken, the late models came with aisin 8speed.

All true. #6 I broke my actuator and it was a +$3000 repair

Hands down one of the best channels on KZbin. And this is coming from a GM guy!

[@jimmystoffer6091]

FYI. The cost to fix the oil leak on the center stack shown on the LX will be between $7-10k depending on the shop. If it has been leaking for some time you can expect to replace the rubber hoses in the area because the oil will deteriorate them. I went through this on one of mine 2 years ago. If you see this run. Move on to the next one.

[@McDaddyPremium]

what is a center stack?

[@za4117]

The Radiator is a common issue on the 08-17 models with the actual core itself but the neck that is made of thin plastic and cracks over time. Toyota updated the designed with a thicker, chamfered neck in the 2018+ models. Also Cam tower & coolant vallet leaks as all 5.7 3UR's are susceptible to can also go wrong.

[@mmarciniak]

“The Radiator”!!!!

[@YangGQ]

This is a diamond video to watch. Spot on on critical things to watch. Based on this video - I bought a Landcruiser VX V8 2011 60th Anniversary in 2024 with 105K km on the clock. So my 13 year old (two owner) car looked great. No rust. (Because driving in Malaysia). Upon purchase, changed ACH globes. So no longer does stationary dives at traffic lights. Drives like a dream at up to 165 kph on our expressway,. Cruising at 150kph is the norm. (Vs 120kph for the Landcruiser Prado 2.7L). Sits happily in long traffic jams if needed. It feels and looks like a new car despite being 13 years old! The "Facelift" to 2021 model and the PX6 16" (Tesla-esque) centre console makes the car feel new. Both done by the previous owner...

[@Mr-pn2eh]

The best 200 series engine is 4.5L twin turbo V8 diesel. The 1VD-FTV

[@svein-haraldribland8559]

The diesel makes a lot more sense, but have more issues.

[@marshallshepherd2077]

As a shop that only works on Land Cruisers I cringed when he said he had never seen a radiator that leaked. For me I've yet to see a pre 18' that didn't leak. We have replaced every single one that come into the shop with the flaw on the embossment for the manufacturer. You can easily tell if it's the old crappy style because the edges around it are sharper. The new style that supersedes the old one has been redesigned with a thicker more smother edge that doesn't crack. Sometimes the crack is really small and if you have an iphone and put it in magnifier mode and zoom in you will see where the crack starts and it's in the corners of the embossment. Bad thing about the 570 is the plastic covers hide all this. I've yet to see this crack be the death nail for the 200 series but all pre 18's with this flaw will fail. Toyota should have extended the warranty on these. Also we see some with the center diff lock light that flashes when it's cold. I think you nailed all the rest.

[@epoxy1710]

The radiator on my 2010 diesel has 540.000km and no leaks.

[@QnA22]

2008 model here, no leaks.

[@samuelgetahun9982]

i had my 2010 replaced around 115k after it blew.. The diff lock was also flashing but it started working after banging it with a hammer a few times. ......

[@bubblegum5991]

My 570 has replaced the radiator three years ago.

[@latenttweet]

You work in a shop, you’re like a doctor but for cars. There are 1,000 people in my small town that have diabetes. Of a total population of 10,000 people. If I worked in a shop that sold diabetic test strips, I could say every person in this town seems to have diabetes. But there are 9,000 that don’t have it. Not trying to take away from what your saying, just adding perspective. There’s about 18,000 LC 200 made per year. What percentage leak? 1%, 5%, 20%? Now since I said this, I’m sure mine will leak 😅

[@lillianachannel]

I think your channel is a gift to the Toyota community. I have a 2019 LC 200 and plan to pass it down to the next generation. I have noticed that the air conditioning dampers sometimes misdirect air on the driver side, but then the problem spontaneously went away and hasn’t come back in the last year. It is nice that your channel has a couple of videos on the LC, which usually doesn’t get much discussion in depth, probably because there are not many of them.

[@jimcanfield5494]

Good Video. I agree and disagree with several things. 1) Radiator (Disagree) The factory radiator rarely lasts more than 70-80K. Both of these 200's have the newer style radiators so they have both been replaced. 2) Timer cover leak/cooling tower leak is very rare. You are much more likely to have a valley coolant leak. 3) Suspension mods (Neutral), 200 series suspension mods on the market are very good. You can change your LC for the better with a good suspension setup. 4) Rust. (100 percent agree). Especially in the LX models, you will have very expensive AHC leaks. 5) LC cost more than LX because of supply and demand. There are about half as many LC's in the US than the LX...both had very low production numbers. Bonus issue: Cycle the 4LO, many of these the 4LO actuator will fail to engage. Especially if 4LO is never used. The internal contacts get rusty and corrode.

[@lowwill2986]

I love you for this brother. Just sent to all my LC200 groups on social media. Keep it up

[@peterparsons7141]

I’ve owned several land cruisers and rust has been the demise of them. Sadly living in eastern North America, it’s a BIG problem. That coupled with expensive parts. Otherwise I would have kept my Toyotas forever. They never let me down, they are machines , and wear and require maintenance, but they are well made. So now I’m shopping for my last LandCruiser/LX 570, or GX V8. Shopping can be fun, when you’re shopping for a new TOY ! Really appreciate your time recording these videos, I wished I lived near you because I would work with you to find me my last ride. Peace! And have a great DAY.

[@kinjiwe5828]

I love the level of honesty in this review

[@davidbeaumont4455]

I shopped for and found a 2013 LX570. Gorgeous 1 owner, dealer maintained, all records no accident history. That all checks out. But! Its from Long island albeit a very "nice" neighborhood. Frame "crust" starting. Only 50,000 miles, but needing immediate attention on the undercarriage. 2 weeks in the AHC springs a leak. Rusted hydraulics line. 😢 Fast forward i replaced that line. De-scaled all frame rust including suspension and lines. Neutralized rust and now I'm POR 15 painting the underside and will be lanolin treated inside and outside frame! I'm in for the long haul and I genuinely love this car!

[@mikearend997]

What's wrong with the oil under spray. In Canada we have companies like Krown Rust Control, Rust Check and others that do a great job of combating rust. It's an annual application, but it works very well and will increase your resale value.

[@Callm3]

[@chancewilliamson7571]

I bought a 2015 Lexus LX 570 this past February, and it has been a great experience. It spent most of its previous life in Oklahoma and Arkansas, so rust was never an issue I had to consider. I've wanted a Land Cruiser since I was 18, and now 14 years later have managed to get one with 88k miles. Car Care Nut is proper; the engine bay is very cramped, so changing my spark plugs out compared to my 05' Camry was a hassle. Fortunately, there is a great community of enthusiasts out there who will gladly help you sort your truck out. The LX was about $10k cheaper than similar Land Cruiser models of the same year and mileage. I'd encourage anyone to buy a well-maintained LX over a well-maintained Land Cruiser for that reason.

[@EazysJourney]

How much did you get your LX for I’m looking at at 2014 lx570 with 148,000 miles and they want 30,000 after taxes and everything. I’m considering doing it seems like a very clean vehicle it’s just a lot of money haha.

[@riccosmooth481]

Great video @CCN! I've owned 2 200 Series now (08 LX & 13 LC) and I actually miss the LX because of all the comfort features and amenities that the LC's utilitarian nature doesn't possess. In addition, you forgot to mention 1 achilles hill in the 200 series, valley plate/heat exchanger leak, which is very common in the 3UR-FE. If anyone is looking at one of these, bring a scope with you to look under the intake before purchasing. This alone can be a $1,200 fix.

I do agree on the lifting and modifying personally. It is perfect as it is. But I have also modified many of them in my younger years, too. I think for every individual they should make it to be the way they want, and I will never judge anyone for modifying their vehicle. Even if it is not to my taste, it makes them happy.

Happy owner of a 2013 LX570 with 76k km. Only 3 years of limited winter driving but it rusted fast. Good to learn about oil spots to watch out for. I removed 3rd row and swapped to Tundra brake kit. LX is heavy with a hundred small motors, sound proofing, and oversized components (motor mounts!) that are made to last forever. Hard to find after-market parts. Hydraulic lift is great to lower for my wife's bad hip and rising to full height for off-road.

OMG I have been waiting for this very video! I have wanted a LC for over 30 years. I have always had Toyotas since 1987. For work I drove GMC, Ford, and Dodge off road for 3 decades, so Toyotas were always for me. In late 2021, I finally scored a 2019 LC, 1 owner, no accidents, not fleet, Certified, with 21K miles. Unbelievable. Clean as a whistle. Yes, I looked. Loved it so much that we sold the 2019 Tundra Crewmax Limited with 30k the last May 2023 and bought a Certified 2019 LX 570. One owner. No accidents. Not fleet. Had 30k miles. I was nervous about the AHC system. We really wanted another LC but it is difficult to find one that isn't over priced or was/is compromised mechanically. I caught flak from friends on the LX but continue to say over and over that it is simply a LC in a tuxedo and not as valuable as the LC. There were on average only about 3,000 LCs imported each year over the last 2? decades. There were only 4,000 LX's imported. So there is the simple availability factor. But people treat the LX wirth awe but I always explain the LC is simpler. I like the KDSS better and I simply like the way it drives better than the LX. Unfortunately, I don't trust the Lexus dealership where I live. I only trust one Toyota dealership which is 120 miles away (but worth the TLC). But, both dealerships have said they don't see either respective vehicle very often. Again, not that many 200 LCs and LX 570's around. So, for serious stuff I may have to drive to Chicago to see you or perhaps the specialty shop in Boise which would be a "going on vacation" type of repair. The dealerships are frightening, unfortunately.

(Owned 2 LCs before it) One more reason the LX costs less than the Land Cruiser is availability. 3-4x more LX’s than LCs were sold in the US every year (before they were discontinued). Simple supply and demand. For those of you looking to buy, these are bomber vehicles, but know they are COSTLY! Even used. Very expensive to fuel, insure, and repair.

Another interesting video by the master👍

I like your videos. Especially the Land Cruiser ones. Any common problems regarding A/C would be interesting. I am having problem with the A/C air recirculation filter/motor. Sometimes A/C does not start and I have to wait up to a minute to start

Thank you for your videos.

Great video. Any chance you will do another Q&A video in the near future? I have questions about my 2012 Prius lol

Another check recommendation for a very common issue: CABIN AIR FILTER DOOR Check to make sure it moves appropriately from recirc to fresh mode. This door can be found through the glove box. The cabin air filter is only accessible if the air is in recirc mode. This isn’t made clear (especially on earlier models of the 200), and the door is often forced open to replace or inspect the filter, even by Toyota techs. This can pop the door off its solenoid pin, or worse, break the pin or its housing. Popping it back in place can be done, but requires removing the glove box. Repairing it requires tedious door removal and superglue. Replacing it requires total dash removal and big $$$, from what I understand. Lots of details on IH8MUD of this issue (~1/3 of surveyed had it). If broken, I’d demand it to be fixed and get photo proof that the fix was high quality. If the cabin air filter door doesn’t work, you can fog up the interior glass real bad in wet conditions, making a driving hazard. Not to mention you’re paying a lot for this vehicle: The recirc/fresh selector should work, period.

That's why I do it myself. Follow instructions, no issues.

I’m glad you posted this up, might not have heard about this otherwise. Thanks
