  1. Electronic Toll Card, nope not in the UK! If you search for it you will find a few threads about it.
  2. I'd suggest the JPNZ owners manual, very useful for finding out what many functions and buttons are! Often available on ebay. Can't help with that button, I don't have it. Also - what year is yours actually? Your question says 2014, but your tag says 2002-2008, it will make a big difference! Cheers, Nev
  3. I've now been inquisitive enough to get out my copy of the JPNZ owners manual - I absolutely recommend one @Gotenks1 The function of said button is to turn on the automatic function of the four wheel drive. It would seem they operate in 2wd, unless the button is on, and if it detects wheel slip it brings in the 4wd. I've taken photos of the pages from the manual for you.
  4. I am very much not looking at the same photo as you!!! And from his post, and his question, we could be forgiven for reckoning it's found on Mosy's 2013 Vellfire GGH25. Not a Hilux.
  5. Hi John! IF yours is the same as mine, and that ECO word lighting up is on the bottom right of the rev counter, it's just an indicator to say you're driving economically, according to my manual. Cheers, Nev
  6. Hello there newbie! I would second the recommendation for the "JPNZ" owners manual, I bought one before we got ours! Auto Jap Spares were where I got ours, via ebay. In the meanwhile, from that very manual, the description of that button is - "Wide View Front And Side Control", whatever that means as there is no further explanation. But my guess is it's related to the car having the 360 degree camera system, and the button perhaps alters the view shown on the screen. Cheers, Nev
  7. Original or not, if you can read the words, you'll have a chance of working it out! We've not got a manual for our original head unit.
  8. Hi there! Have you tried the Google translate function on your phone? We did on our original head unit, and it was VERY useful at enabling us to use its features! Cheers, Nev
  9. Yep, or they could wriggle, they're like that! On both our cars it made no difference to the premium, bit its on record!
  10. Hi George! No, but I use Hubcentric spacers on my Subaru, they can also do what you're after, giving a different pcd for the wheel, if the right ones are available. Cheers, Nev
  11. Hi Chris! And also do please ensure to use the right grease in the right area, not copper grease anymore! My apologies if you knew this! Cheers, Nev
  12. Hi Kevin! Yes, just run them at what's on the door plate, perhaps plus a psi or two. Which will probably be around 36 to 38 psi. And for almost all cars! It's not a racing car, it really won't make any appreciable difference. There's plenty of other posts here, and everywhere for that matter, discussing the pros and cons of a bit more pressure in them. Less rolling resistance, less grip to the road etc etc. But a little bit won't hurt! Cheers, Nev
  13. Hi Tony! How did you go on with sourcing a new battery? Cheers, Nev
  14. Hi Craig! My personal use experience, Apec, Pagid, or obviously originals, Toyota! Cheers, Nev
  15. Hi Neil! Yes, ebay. I got the opposite side to that a few months ago, due to water ingress in my case. round figures £90.00 It doesn't matter if it's a black one, the plastic pops out to swap over! Do look VERY closely at the pictures, the first one I received had a ruddy hole in the back!! Returned it OK, as I had mentioned in the messages why I wanted it. Cheers, Nev
