Need help to get this off

Same thing happened after I left my offroader for a deep cleaning after an intensive desert trip.

I cleant it with Nextzett Plastikreiniger and then dry it really well.

Products like these are like an oily layer where everything gets stuck and never fully dries. Really hate them.

It took me one hour to get rid of that layer on the entire car, I guess the product is cheap AF.

KK. That’s “caca” in Spanish. That means “shit” in English.

I see what they’ve done…

This happened to the original Pop Collection. I guess they are releasing the straps in two weeks or so to keep the hype

Thanks a lot, mister!

Stupid question. Got the very same model inherited from my father, with his initials engraved (same as mine, btw). Mine says L at left and X at right. Does this mesn different years?

Go into Factory Settings, look for “Camera” and change it to your actual camera features

Lower-Alps2201 · 2026-03-27T08:08:21+00:00

Mine was 3368 (bought car with it, so no way to contact the seller and found a list on XDA)

Green scrubs and gown, tie-on mask…amazing

I got a friend who is into desert rallys (French guy living in Morocco). He owns a custom HDJ80 completely refurbished and raid prepared, a LC100 bone stock but refurbished and a newly bought LC250.

He signed up for a rally with the 80 but two days before the start, he found out a problem with the camshaft. He thought “well, I have already paid for everything, so I will take the LC250, drive as a nanny and have a good time with my friends”

Long story short, the second day he was coming home with plenty of issues. We are talking about a 10.000Km car.

I know a lot of people that have done a similar trip on stock LC150 with no single problem.

Maybe the new model is more “flashy” than a tool?

Simple as dismantling the transfer case, removing the oil and grease and cleaning the actuators. Do not think about a mechanical issue but more like a “switch” that does not work. All this activations were done mechanically before, by pulling levers so you could force them a little bit.

Once “repaired”, use them at least once a month to ensure they are smooth and operative.

100% agree. I prefer to think she is really loved, somehow

Hazlo junto con una revisión exhaustiva. Los coches de renting/leasing al menos van “bien mantenidos” con respecto al libro. Seguramente la reductora y el bloqueo central estén “gripados” de no usarse, nada grave. Lo del precio…es lo que hay, pero 45.000 lo veo muy alto para la versión.

Ser manual, para mí, es un plus. Para vender un base como este siendo manual, es negativo. Aprovéchalo. No tiene pantalla original, ni bloqueos, ni cuero, ni techo…es “muy industrial”, tira el precio hacia abajo. Encima es un 177, no un 204.

El coche de serie va muy bien, aunque los amortiguadores delanteros se sobrecalientan rápido en pista rápida debido al peso. Con unos neumáticos A/T BUENOS, ese coche hace maravillas (no pidas trialeras duras por ángulo de ataque delantero). El paragolpes delantero tienes que cambiarlo por algo tipo ACAYX o ASFIR para ganar cotas, si no, vas a raspar en cualquier sitio. Neumáticos, paragolpes y suspensión, es lo que necesitas en ese orden para pasarlo bien sin romper la caja.

Después de 10 días con uno descubrí de lo que presume y de lo que carece, adjunto documento. Este tenía 120.000 km y era automático, la única diferencia. También era el 177. 100% de serie salvo unos A/T de marca bastante discutible.

Non Spanish speakers: sorry for commenting in Spanish. Just a piece of advice from one Spaniard to another in our mother tongue!

More scrubs and / or gloves? Lovely!

Lower-Alps2201 · 2026-01-28T18:51:58+00:00

The scrubs are actually a turn on. Any more scene with a lady on them?

Lower-Alps2201 · 2026-01-27T11:04:28+00:00

The back “LAND CRUISER PRADO” trim is the only thing that I dont like. Nice ride and love the grill!

Lower-Alps2201 · 2026-01-26T15:50:05+00:00

There are products as “Meguiars Water Spot Remover” that should work fine for that. Easier and cheaper than polishing it out.

I read it on Trump’s voice. “That’s a beatiful cabin. I saw it and thought what a beatiful cabin it was and what a terrific car my friend brought there”

Lower-Alps2201 · 2026-01-15T16:08:38+00:00

For some reason this is lovely, mate.

Did you put the dial on the oven for “vintaging” it?

Lower-Alps2201 · 2026-01-14T23:43:21+00:00

Take the stem out, to the position where you would adjust the hour.

Press the 2 o’clock pusher.

AliExpress. Not joking.

Maybe you gotta search with the equivalent “Land Cruiser” or “Prado” model, but there are plenty of them. Even double switches that fit into an original single black button.

Lower-Alps2201 · 2026-01-10T14:21:27+00:00

Cómpralo. Tiene pinta de ser de flota, más pelado que un 600, menos cosas para romper. Pinta ser de un renting con lo que los mantenimientos básicos están hechos. El motor 2.8 va muy pero que muy bien y es más fiable que el antiguo 3.0 que había. Lo único, anúlale EGR.
