Hey! I have been struggling with the gearbox on the LC for a few weeks. Turns out, after Google and a stripdown that I need the No.1 Solenoid valve located in the bottom of the gearbox.
The lovely chaps at Toyota have a few in stock at a whopping $760 a piece. I am expecting a call from them re a discount. I have seen prices from the US of about US$230.
Have any of you guys bought these elsewhere in NZ/OZ? Your input appreciated!
Cheers, Eddie
