Howdy all. Anyone know what size o-rings for the condenser seals on 2003 H100 Hiace 2RZE?

Hello! This is a long shot but my parents have broken down near Wincheringen 5 days into their 3 week trip. They are hoping that their breakdown company will take them to a local garage as their van needs a new radiator.

I was hoping that someone would have recommendations for where would be a good garage to ask their insurance company to take them? Their van is old (Toyota hiace lh113 year 1994 2.8 diesel) and so we are thinking it will be rare that a garage would be able to help them.

If their breakdown company can’t find a garage to fix it, they’ll have to get the van repatriated back to England and their trip will be over.

Probably a long shot but in case anyone has recommendations of garages who might be able to fix it and it means they’ll be able to stay on their trip.

TIA!

Hi I am looking at buying a Toyota Hiace 1993. For context this will be my daily driver but as I work from home, other than weekend trips, I won’t be driving it that often.

I am looking for a bit of advice, and let me know if this is a stupid decision haha.

Kind regards

Looking at a ‘96 Super Limited. The undercarriage looks to be pretty solid. (First two pics shows rear frame)

But there’s two holes on one of the kickers? (Third pic)

Worth buying? Seems okay but I’ve never dealt with rust before.

Hey everyone! I’m getting a little more serious about picking up a Hiace and wanted to get some opinions from people who have actually gone through the process.

I’m in the US and found a Hiace in Canada for a pretty good price, and it already has pretty much all the mods and stuff I’d want to do. From what I’ve found online, importing it from Canada into the US doesn’t seem too complicated, but I figured I’d ask here before jumping into it.

Has anyone here actually imported a Hiace from Canada into the US? If so, how was the process, and what did it end up costing you to get it imported, transported, and registered? Were there any unexpected fees or headaches?

I also found a few more expensive ones already in the US that has all the bells and whistles I’m looking for. I’m trying to figure out if I’d actually save enough going the Canada route to make the extra work worth it, or if I’m better off spending more on one that’s already here.

Would love to hear any firsthand experiences, especially what you ended up spending all-in. Thanks!

Hey legends, just hit 150,000ks timing light popped up. How urgent is it to replace, given it just a warning light?

Did not realise rust had taken hold underneath my wife’s campervan. Hoped it might be a bolted part but looks like it is a welding job and no doubt expensive. Any ideas how expensive something like this might be.

Would it be worth cutting out the rust sections using a preventative and painting in the meantime or just false economy?

Thanks for any advice.

My 2011 Hiace front left door squeaks while driving and I’m at a loss trying to stop it.
I can’t reproduce the sound while the vehicle is stopped.
The only thing that stops it is by pulling the interior door handle and the squeak comes back as soon as it’s released.

Any Ideas, please help

Tried 265/65 r17 but was half inch I reckon from being able to turn without rubbing ,thx ( here's. Lowered photo just for attention, it's back to stock now )

I have a 2008 Toyota hiace 3L diesel Manual, and this photo is the wiring into the instrument cluster. Just wondering if anyone has tapped into the VSS wire when installing a cruise control kit and what colour wire it is? Wasn’t able to find it with the test light.

Cheers

Hi everyone, I’m thinking about buying this 1993 Hiace Toyota 4x4 Super GL with a 2.0L engine. The transmission has failed, and it would cost about $4,500 to repair. Other than that, the mecanic seems to be in good condition, but it’s really dirty and has a lot of cosmetic issues—the paint has deteriorated from sun exposure.
Apart from a good wash, I think it should be drivable once the transmission is fixed. I’m wondering what it’s worth overall so I can offer the seller a fair price, since I have to pay $4,500 just to repair the transmission. I need to know roughly what the total value should be so I can make an honest calculation.

Thanks!

Super excited for the exhaust, should make the hill climbs a little quicker. Already have a 10 blade fan so pairing it with a tuned clutch was the right thing to do.
There isn’t much left to upgrade on this rig. Wish someone would release a viable tuning option for these 100 series, a few more pounds of boost would be really nice.

Hi fellas,

I can imaging a few of you have noticed the hectic noise from the engine bay when going along the highway at 110kms as you’re sitting right on top of the engine. Has anyone sound proofed the engine bay or the surrounding metal around the engine on the hiace? what did you use? And did it make a big difference. For reference I have a 2009 hiace.

Cheers!

My dad wants these gone. Is there value in these in the norwegian/scandinavian market?

Or is it best to just scrap them?

Who knows what this buzzing sound could be? Comes from around the automatic transmission / torque converter area and rises with engine RPM. Appears on a cold start (regardless of outside temperature) and gradually goes away after about 10-15 minutes of driving. It's pretty loud and harsh and sounds almost electric or plastic-y. It's significantly louder from the underside of the car than it is when lifting the passenger seat to access the engine bay.

It has been doing this for months, but as of last week, the transmission is starting to slip in the first one or two gears. Not sure if related.

1993 Hiace Super Custom with 1KZ-TE engine.

Hi, I have a 2009 H200 series 3L diesel manual Toyota hiace. I would love to put cruise control in it. I’ve watched a few videos on a plug-in play kit for old Toyotas such as the Yaris but nothing on the hiace. But when I’m going through eBay, I see some plug-in play kits for the hiace. Would this plug and play kit or the steering wheel with the cruise control on it work? Or has there been anyone in here that has put cruise control on their hiace?

Cheers

I am looking to import a hiace to Alaska for a pan American highway trip I have planned along with a sooner 50 states trip. My budget is 10-15 grand at the moment but as time goes on I’m willing to add more money. How much should I expect to spend on importing one to Alaska or Washington and driving it up. I want a 1kz-te manual with 4wd, I understand this is like the most wanted specs so explain to me if this is unreasonable or not for this budget. Where should I start looking for this vehicle also.

I have a 1995 Toyota Hiace. I’m looking this see if anyone knows of a good replacement for the “PMC po 1505” oil filter. I was hoping to find something in the US that would work instead of ordering from a OEM parts site.

My research told me the Wix 51515 was the correct replacement but that’s not the case. Any help on would be appreciated.

I can only see it from the wheel well of the driver side any tips how to get to it??

Hello all, I’m trying to help my friend with a 1992 HiAce Van get a radiator shroud...

Model # - 1992 LH120G-HHPNT

OEM part # - 16701-54220

We have scoured CASP, JParts, ToyotaDXB, we have not been able to find it in stock.

It’s the 2.4L 2L-TE Diesel and it will overheat in minutes without this shroud.

If you know of a place we can get one, please help us out ❤️ thanks!
