About 3 months ago I posted a thread about a serious engine knock in one of our V8 traybacks.
Toyota have now repaired the engine and the vehicle is back in service.
Although they have given no explanation as to why the engine developed the bigend knock, they didn't hesitate in repairing it.
At that time 4 engines in Australia had developed the problem and to Toyotas credit they were straight onto it.
They must have had a through examination of the failure, as it took ages for the vehicle to return repaired.
