I'm opening a thread again ;)

my car got so many problems now, jeez. :P

If the engine vibrates, the interior starts to making sound (sometimes)

and right hand side door is making squicking sound (often)

I try to go to the dealer to get free maintenance but after 1 or 2 months the sound came back.

Anyone can suggest me shop or people who can check out the car and fix them so that the car won't make any more noise

Thanx

Erik

:D

dude...u drive a 34 man...i drive a 33 thats knockin close to 7 yrs old now and the squeeks i have in mine, u can only imagine..

as for drivers door, mine used to rattle...i took it off....used electrical tape and taped every f*cken thing and joint together...

even the part at the top of the trim, where it hooks on to the metal frame of the door, i coated it with tape and all so theres no metal against metal henceforth, no chance for rattle.

but!!!

the bloody thing came back and mocked me like a b*tch.

i press it abit now and it goes (klak).

ive pretty much given up till the next time i change my speakers.

Lol,

My dad said it's from speaker then I tried to bring it to a shop to fix it then it's gone after a while it came back again.

MrGTST -

It's not when I'm opening the door, it's when I'm driving around.

Angel - Wanna drive? :) When is the next skill swapping day?

streamer - You better get a new r33 like 97's :)

oh man :D - theres a total of 6 screws holding my door skin in, theres nothing to these cars, thats the beauty of em..... Just get in there and have a go! :) 12 months ago I didnt know what a turbo looked like, now I'm installing/tuning electronic boost controllers, changing plugs and brakes etc.. Just have a go, you'll learn heaps about your own car.

/end bragging :)

erik: its not a difficult job

removing the door trim panels and tightening everything and retaping eveyrthing is the easiest thing ive ever learnt.

door is held by a few screws here and there. im not sure for 34 but i know for 33, its held by 3 screws @ the bottom, a screw in the cup thing attached to yr power window ctrls and your door latch sorround.

the rest is just pins that you can pry off...and pop back in when u push it abck in.

inside yr car, there is a waterproof skin/membrane kinda thing that protects yr trim and electrics frm getting any water durin rainy days or car washes and what happens is often, that is just rubbin against some electrical tape or cables to create a squeak..

so just open em up and see how it goes...shdn't be a problem...

sometimes, its also the the plastic pieces sorrounding the bottom of your dash console..

so if u take that out and tighten everythin and put it back together, shud be fine after that

i tried that too...pretty easy...removing the gear stick and unscrewing the screws behind yr ashtary shd get u started...

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
