...WHP?), but my car came with JB4 when I bought it, otherwise I'd have unlocked from the start.
3 - For a 2021 a common problem is a failing oilpump caused by plastic components wearing down. 2022+ has an all-metal pump that lacks this issue. The way to check is to take a drive then park and...
yeah i turned on the secret menu to check.
I live in a tropical country with ambient temp of around 28c, after leaving the car overnight, the moment i start up the engine, its at 55C basically instantly. It hits 100-110c in 15 mins, and basically stays there.
So i need to either test it after...
Ok so if I understand you correctly then your particular car has a 5degree C operating window to measure the oil qty? I think from memory the owners manual says 30 min driving which should bring the oil temp into the 60-100C range (I always test it after a drive) which concurs with what you have...
...your pump failed, you would not be able to measure it at all, regardless of temperature., you will also likely hear a whirring sound of the oilpump consistently while driving (you can hear an example of it when doing the oil measurement test), and if its serious, you will see an oil pressure...
This is a stupid question, but how do you know if your oilpump is failing.
I have a 2020 unit, and this afternoon it showed low oil after 3000 miles, asking me to top up 1 quart , during this time, it refused to do the full measurement and stopped around 20%, and just said oil at minimum...
...being needed are for DAW turbos smoking due to oil.
I myself also formerly had this issue, but I'm not sure if it was due to my faulty oilpump (replaced now) over pressurizing the turbo, poor crankcase ventilation (wasn't running a breather then), or the DAW UFX having poor drainage (what I...
tbh, i don’t know how you do all this intense wrenching yourself plus helping others and still have the passion and the energy to track!! A break is well-earned.
Unless I get an itch I can't scratch this year, I think the Supra is going to take the season off and I will upgrade the trans and swap the oilpump this coming winter.
I did get a set of track tires delivered today for the M240i so I can try that boat anchor on the track soon...
Im jealous! Down here where I live in FL it seems my local dealers are a bit inept unfortunately. But, in this circumstance at least after some fight from them they're doing more than just the coolant pump work. They recharged my ac compressor, cleaned up the engine bay, flushed my brakes...
Hey all,
Just wanted some feedback on what you'd do in my situation.
My coolant pump/water pump failed earlier this week. Noticed my radiator fans blowing harder than usual and then a day after my AC stopped working. Brought it to the dealer and after a few days they diagnosed the coolant pump...
Took home this 2021 GR Supra 3.0 Premium! Sitting in storage waiting for winter to end.
Been keeping an eye out specifically for a Turbulence grey, and immediately jumped on this one-
Came from a 2020 Subaru BRZ Sport-tech RS, acting as a placeholder with the Supra always having been the goal!
...in Largo. Did a flawless job on both instances I needed something fixed (the other being a broken window actuator), and in the case of the oilpump they even let me inspect the undercarriage and engine bay + showed me the damaged pieces of the old pump before finalizing to ensure I was happy...
I'm in the exact same position. We were going to swap the oilpump and check and refresh rod bearings.
But now thinking we may as well just build the engine and get a bigger turbo :rofl:
