And the problems continued ... - Toyota Land Cruiser Prado, 4.0 liter, 1998

From past topics, one could understand that I found myself a lot of hemorrhoids with the purchase of this car ...
In general, now the alignment was as follows, running the car for two weeks, wound around 1600 on the odometer after the cap, i.e. another run-in ... I didn’t give dope at all, I drove as calmly as possible ...
Well, so, one day, when I was driving, I don’t remember where and why ... it just took it and died out, on the spot, for no reason ... no more started up… I won’t tell you about how I almost got rid of the 9 in front, when my brakes disappeared, it hurt a lot of emotions then…)
I delivered it to Saitama on a tow truck, they dug around, started it up, after working for 40 seconds it stalled again, but now it’s not just, but also with a jammed engine ...
This time, another master took it from me, and calling in the evening, upset me even more!
With a bunch of mats, etc. words, he described my problem … actually broken piston, tore the entire cylinder, pulled out the nozzle, cracked head … in short n ****!
Having argued for a long time with all the staff, and even the general director, I got myself a warranty repair, they took money only for spare parts, which I now ordered myself.
forging 115000
pistons 20000
gaskets, rings, etc. 15000 more

On this, thank God, the grandiose problems with the engine pah-pah-pah ended ... and to this day it works like a clock ...
after 2 caps, I have already traveled more than 20,000 km ...
