I have an "Identity" anti-theft system installed on my 2000 Toyota Tundra. The previous owner installed it. I have brought it to two different Alarm/Car Radio shops and they both claimed I do not have an anti theft system installed. They looked in the ignition area, behind the radio and couldnt find anything. This system utilizes a keyfob. I push a button when it wont start and what do you know, it starts. It does this intermittently. The FCC ID is: QY7ADM625 I have looked on the internet and cannot find the company who made this particular device. Any help disabling this system would be greatly appreciated. I dont have to worry about my truck being stolen in North Dakota.

Replying to: kiawah (Oct 28, 2008 7:14 am) regular green coolant used,nothing exotic. Doughter drove car back to Edmonton today[500 km]. temp steady at 170-F all the way, no issues at all, no coolant loss either, but still NO pressure at all. You go figure.

Replying to: kiawah (Oct 28, 2008 6:39 pm) i now come to blame the coolant loss on the erratic working T stat, as there was some evidence of boil over or spill at the rad cap, wich may have been cross treaded on by my doughter after topping of the coolant level the day after the water pump was replaced. said cap was somewhat hard to remove, and may not have seated correctly. |

I have a 2002 Camry LE with over 100K on it. I took it in for inspection 2 days ago. I took it too a new place because I the place I used to go went out of business. Pennsylvania's State Inspection you have to take the tires off and measure the rotors and the pads. At the old place they alway looked a the brakes then took it for a road test. The new place took my car for a road test first.They were gone what seem a little a long. My car didn't pass inspection because they said there was leak in the front hydraulic mount. And there was a lot of hydraulic fluid leaking out of the front mount. It was dripping out rapidly. When I got home I check my parking space there were no oil spots on it. I'm going to go to a different place for the repairs, but is there a way to tell if they punched a whole in the engine mouint while they were road testing my car?

2001 Trooper 4x4, only owner, 42,000 miles, maintained, never off-roaded or abused. 6 cyl, auto, shift on the fly 4x4 (Does NOT have Torque on Demand system) PROBLEM: Front axle will not engage (will not go into four wheel drive) when the dash button is pressed. At idle I can hear a "cla-chunk" when I press the dash 4x4 switch, so there is 'something' trying to engage the front axle, but the dash 4x4 indicator light just blinks and the axle will not lock up. SOMETIMES the front axle will engage if I press the dash switch BEFORE I start the engine, then for dash indicator light stays on and the front axle locks up and runs fine in four wheel drive. SO, this tells me the mechanism in the front axle is FINE, it's the engagement system that is out of whack. It has a vacuum system to lock the front axle up...anyone have any experience with this goofy system? Wes |
