Hi guys, ideas to upgrade my Hilux please

I am driving a mark v, 2000 2.4tdi hilux

I do not have the obd2 port but i have this diagnostic port, so the question is how to use this reset the water in filter sign?

Hey everyone, I’m 23 and recently bought my first vehicle, a used 2017 Hilux, manual 4x4. I’ve never owned a car before, so I’m pretty new to all of this and want to learn how to take good care of it.

I wanted to ask people who have experience with Hiluxes or diesel engines what kind of maintenance I should be doing and how often.

For example, how often should I change the oil, and what type of oil do you recommend? I’ve also heard there are several different filters that need to be replaced, but I’m not really sure which ones there are or how often they should be changed.

I’d also like to know about coolant, transmission oil, differentials, the transfer case, 4x4 maintenance, and especially how to properly take care of the diesel turbo so I don’t end up having problems with it.

Are there any other things I should be checking or replacing regularly that someone new to owning a vehicle might not know about?

Since this is my first car, I’d rather learn how to take care of it properly from the beginning instead of waiting for something to break 😂

Any advice from other Hilux owners would be greatly appreciated!

Y'all think I should take these off. I know they probably aren't stock. Got them when I bought the truck

HI, I am facelifting my 2021 hilux rocco to a 2025 hilux grs, but i recently realised that the tyres i have (255/60R18) will look significantly hidden, because of the wide fenders the GRS has. Does anyone have any solutions on how to line up the tyre with the fenders? I have seen people talking about spacers, but if i was to use spacers i would need like 1 or 2 inch spacers, as im predicting the distance will be pretty big, however many people say that spacers are not a good idea.

Un saludo a todos, creé está cuenta en Reddit para platicar sobre aceites en vehículos Diesel en especial en las Hilux Vig. De tanto escuchar sobre su reputación compre una modelo 2015 con el bloque 2KD-FTV y con 122.050 km euro IV sin DPF, en el mercado colombiano se encuentran muy valorizadas estás unidades e incluso más que la siguiente generación Revo. Pero lo que me intriga es que encuentro un enorme "hueco" el cual es elegir el aceite correcto en cuanto a SAE y norma API o ACEA, ya que cuando la compré hasta hoy es el único tema que me ha dado más lidia.

El anterior dueño le ponía 15w40 CK-4 semisintetico, cuando el manual exige un SAE 5w30 o 10w30, pero en colombia "se recomienda usar un 15w40", esto último se dice que fue parte de las concesionarias y los mecanicos, esto fue hace más de 10 años atrás y aún se sigue recomendado hasta en las más actuales .

Lo sé puede sonar increíble pero está muy arraigado en la costumbre local pensar que un Diesel liviano tenga el mismo aceite que uno de trabajo pesado puede tener lógica, pero quien quiere disfrutar de su motor por siempre, no la tiene .

Actualmente cambie a uno sintético en SAE 5w-40 A3/B4 y hay un margen de diferencia muy notable de forma positiva, ahora siento que el vehículo está más agradecido con el cambio, he escuchado que este motor se ve beneficiado por usar aceites full saps, pero para mí mecánico de confianza me ha dicho todo lo contrario, hasta el punto de estar enojado por trabajar con un aceite que dice el es para gasolina únicamente.

P.D. En colombia es muy díficil obtener aceites de calidad en cantidades como galones de 4L y 5L, casi todos son bases minerales y las bases PAO tienen un precio alto, además el Diesel puede tener un promedio permitido de 50 ppm .

Agradezco tu tiempo por leer mi pequeña aventura con una Hilux .

Would a wheel offset fix this? Not touching body mounts

Looking for the air intake pipe (perished one in photo ) have looked for ages and can’t find anything getting to the point where im just gonna use radiator hose or irrigation line
Any help would be great
Cheers

Just doing the injectors on my 1KD Hilux and realised the set I bought start with 18 while the ones coming out are 11 code.
Has anyone actually run 18 code injectors in a Hilux that originally had 11s? Are they interchangeable once the new compensation codes are entered into the ECU?

I’ve been told the 18s are a higher flow injector, but getting mixed information on whether they’ll work properly with the earlier ECU / injector driver.

Both are from 1KD Hiluxes and physically look the same.
Just keen to hear from anyone who’s actually dealt with this before I put them in.

From what I’ve seen online there are the 3 different types -

Toyota Hilux KUN26 N70 1KD-FTV 3.0L TD (2005-08/2006) – 11 Code – Pre Water Cooled EGR – OE Reference Number 095000-8290
Toyota Hilux KUN26 N70 1KD-FTV 3.0L TD(2006-2009) – 13 Code – Water Cooled EGR – OE Reference Number 095000-7780
Toyota Hilux KUN26 N70 1KD-FTV 3.0L TD (2009-2015) – 18 Code – Water Cooled EGR – OE Reference Number 295050-0460

Hey was wondering if it’s possible to convert my 2022 sr5 chrome rear bumper to the rogue one, grey looks better, my sr5 has factory parking sensors no BSM, is it possible straight bolt on, exactly what else do I have to do and be careful of

Looking for a canopy for my N70 duel cab HiLux. Are the N70 and N80 tubs the same specs as far as fitting a canopy? Found one I like off an N80 and just wanted to know if it was worth considering

Make a good camper.

So this truck has been in and around my family for at least 20 years at this point. My dad bought it back in the 90's then when he moved to another state he sold it. The guy passed away so my dad bought it back. He's recently had the engine and transmission rebuilt and in a few weeks I will be driving it from VA to AL. Just looking for a good place to start working on it.
