Hi everyone, new to the forum but not completely new to Landcruisers, I had a 120 LC5 a few years ago.
Just picked up a nice SWB Japanese import diesel Prado and just wondered if anyone knew how different they are to U.K. cars in terms of parts?, I’m looking at doing a full service soon including the timing belt for piece of mind.
Also I might need to get a new AC compressor as the clutch bearings in mine were noisy but they seem to be ok now after applying some WD40 and letting it soak in.

Would anyone with a U.K. spec Colorado be able to post a pic of their engine bay and aux belt?.

Prado vs Colorado:

- Big wind deflectors on 4 windows -Prado, useful when raining with windows down
- chrome side rear mirrors and door handles - Prado
- Intercooler - Prado only
- Climate control panel - Prado only
- Front chrome horizontal grill - Prado only (all Colorado has vertically arranged front grill)
- Fender mirror - Prado only
- nice front Prado chrome brush bar normally comes with 2 7” spot light - Prado only
- rear light clusters on the body not in the bumper - Prado
- Rear diff lock - Colorado only (Prado has LSD)
- front headlight washer - Colorado only
- instrument dial light adjustment- Colorado only
- rear heater/blower - Colorado only
- rear fog light - Colorado only (add your own fog for Prado)
- idle up switch - Colorado only

Having intercooler on the Prado gives about 20more bhp which is quite good, and more torque.

My Colorado has and always had the horizontal grill?  Other than that seems very correct Smile

From new? Or just since you've had it?
