What is broken on YOUR Toyota
#262
***UPDATE TO MY ORIGINAL POST HERE***
I now officially have only one undamaged body panel
left on my truck (driver's side fender)
I wear my scrapes and bruises like badges of honor, because I've earned them all

factory lighter doesn't work, interior light is funky(I never know when it's gonna come on when I open my door, the big ass hole in the passenger floor(I don't even want to look at my side), no stero or speakers, fan switch goes beyond high, strange idle/running issue STILL haven't figured out, sometime the heater works, sometime it doesn't, the entire cab is as stiff as cooked spagetti... insert other issues here
#268
Timing chain snapped due to idiot PO not torquing the bolts on the T chain guide. Bolt backed out and fell into the timing chain.
I poked a hole in a CV boot. Probably a sharp stick, cause this was after manual hubs.
Passenger's side mirror is missing and the windows don't go down, but considering it flopped, that's not really surprising.

only key is broken off in the ignition. Can't lock my doors or raise/lower rear window w/ key. I installed a hidden kill switch for extra security but until I find a keyed lockset I just leave a bunch of empty boxes and junk in there and hide stuff of value if I have to leave it

That made me bust out laughing...I don't know why....
Power antenna on the 4Runner is stuck in the up position (I just got tired of replacing them every 30 K miles)
...Nothing broken on the Sequoia....yet....I have kids you know....

Thought I'd update my list...
1986 4X4 @ 169,XXX miles...
-Front windshield has three rock chips...
-Needs new shocks & steering stabilizer
1995.5 Tacoma 4X4 @ 300,XXX miles
-Water pump out (Never been replaced)
-White smoke on startup (Slight)
I swear these Toyota's really are POS's...

i need a speedo cable for my 91..
hey rusty, all rigs have a lil white smoke come out of the exhaust on startup!
specially when it is cold. its just the condensation in the pipe/muffler evaporating!

Passenger side door is hard to open from inside.
Windshield is cracked
bed has rust holes
every bit of body work has dents and or rust spots
tranny makes noise, especially fifth gear
driveline vibration (possibly U joints or tranny output play)
oil pan leaks a bit
frame needs addressing (rear crossover tube rusted through)
My turbo and engine seems solid. Thats what I thought would give me the most problems too.
