Get a Dodge Durango, way better SUV than a land cruiser. They got the Fuel saving Hemi, and they look better than Toyota. www.dodge.com/en/2008/durango |

2001 Toyota Land Cruiser - I recently noticed a wobbly
feel in what appears to be the
right front tire on my Land
Cruiser. It feels like the
wheel wants to fall off when I
am driving. It isn't terribly
bad to the point that I don't
feel safe driving it...but it
is an uncomfortable feeling.
The tire doesn't appear to
move a bit when the LC is
parked and I try to wiggle it.
I haven't done anything new
recently like brakes, tires,
rims, or anything like that. I
did notice it looks like one
of the weights fell off inside
of the rim...but it doesn't
feel like an out of balanced
tire. It has about 75,000
miles and no other problems
really. What could it be?
Should I be worried about
driving it?
Forgot to note...all lug nuts
are tight. Tires have approx
10k miles & appear in perfect
condition. Tire pressure is
also correct (I check often).

As silly as it may sound - take a lug wrench to the lug nuts and make sure they are tight. The weight of the car may be preventing the tire from moving around when parked. Jack that corner of the car up and make sure the nuts are all tight. If they are, then you got a suspension problem of some sort - perhaps a ball joint, perhaps something with the steerring linkage. Losing a ball joint at highway speed is a dangerous thing, so I would recommend that if it isn't something as simple as loose lug nuts, then you really should have a qualified Toyota mechanic inspect the front end. |

one of my 1991 toyota land The left passenger window
works from the drivers
controls, but the rest of the
windows don't work, either
from the drivers controls or
the individual controls, not
sure where to start, or what
to look at. THANKS
also, the one window that
works, rolls down fine about
half way then gradually slows
to a crawl when it is almost
down

Since it is a passenger window that operates, it pretty much assures that all the wiring is intact and operational as far as the switching, power supply and ground are concerned. You can still have problems with broken wires in the door hinges on all the doors, but it is unlikely that all three have broken. Try this: Have someone hold down the switch for you, master or door switch, and slap the door panel of any window while the switch is activated. Do it, hard!, with the palm of your hand. If the window starts to operate, the motor was stuck, not an unusual occurrence. The motor will eventually need to be replacled if that is what happens. If that doesn't help, I would recommend removing a door panel and checking the power and ground to the motor. An inexpensive test light will do the trick...put one lead on one wire to the motor and the other lead to the other. Activate any switch and the light should light, polarity unimportant. If it does, the motor is bad. If none of that works, it could get very complicated and you might want to take it to a shop. Hope this helps. God Bless! 3/26 The window slowing to a crawl is classic bad window motor. It has enough power to run for a moment, but as soon as it heats at all, it's done. And that kind of supports what I was saying about the rest. Take your frustration out on the others and let us know how it goes! |

It depends, will you comprimise gas economy for space or space for gas economy. If space matters, get the bigger one, if it dosen't get the smaller one. If gas matters, get the fuel sipper, if not, then don't. Then choose. They're both Toyotas but for now, I would lean towards the 08' Land Cruiser because it's slated for a redesign and the Sequoia is getting old. |
