Stuff you should know
The Australian-delivered 1998-2007 Toyota LandCruiser 100 Series was a hallmark of rugged durability and versatility, catering to both off-road enthusiasts and those who sought a reliable family vehicle. Over its near-decade-long run in Australia, the 100 Series saw various updates and was available in multiple variants to suit different tastes and needs.
Originally, the 100 Series was offered in several trims: the base Standard, the mid-range GXL, the high-end VX, and the luxurious Sahara. Engine options were diverse, ranging from a 4.5-litre inline-six petrol engine to a 4.2-litre turbo diesel, and later the 4.7-litre V8 petrol engine, commonly referred to as the “100 Series V8.” Depending on the trim level, customers could opt for either a manual or automatic transmission.
In 2002, the range received an update, known as the “facelift,” bringing aesthetic changes and new features. The most significant update came under the hood, where Toyota introduced a new 4.2-litre turbo-diesel engine with intercooling. The exterior underwent subtle but noticeable changes, including revised headlamps and taillights, making the vehicle look more contemporary.
Technology and safety were never overlooked throughout the life of the 100 Series. For instance, in higher-end trims like the VX and Sahara, a range of advanced technologies was available, including satellite navigation, climate control, and a more sophisticated audio system. On the safety front, Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) was standard in higher variants and optional in others. Some versions also came with dual front airbags and later models were equipped with electronic brake-force distribution (EBD), further enhancing its safety credentials.
In 2005, Toyota launched the final update for the 100 Series before phasing it out in favor of the 200 Series. This update focused on refinements rather than a comprehensive overhaul. Interior appointments were slightly updated to include more modern amenities like improved upholstery and better-quality materials for touchpoints within the cabin.
The 1998-2007 Toyota LandCruiser 100 Series was a robust and dependable vehicle with a broad range of options to cater to diverse needs. It was as comfortable cruising the highways as it was tackling the Australian outback, making it an iconic choice for Australian motorists. Its combination of technology, safety features, and various upgrades ensured its popularity and cemented its legacy as one of the most reliable and versatile vehicles in Australian automotive history.
What goes wrong
Exterior:
According to owners, the primary concern regarding the exterior of the 100 and 105 series Toyota Land Cruisers is rust and water ingress.
Rust tends to develop around the windscreen, especially at the top, and in the roof gutters. This issue appears to be more prevalent in Land Cruisers that have had their windscreen replaced or incorrectly installed roof racks. It’s also possible that the rubber platforms for the roof racks have deteriorated, allowing water to seep in and eventually cause corrosion.
Interestingly, the problem with rust and water ingress seems to be more widespread in vehicles where accessories haven’t been properly fitted or where damage from accidents hasn’t been adequately repaired.
Therefore, when considering purchasing one of these vehicles, it’s crucial to assess whether the accessories are premium items and whether they have been professionally installed.
Ensuring that they are in good working order is also essential.
Furthermore, preventing water from entering the interior is critical because, in the worst-case scenario, it can reach the vehicle’s electronics, resulting in potentially severe damage.
Additionally, the seal on the rear-mounted stop tail light can degrade over time, leading to leaks into the rear of the vehicle.
However, these are the most common exterior issues, which is quite remarkable for a 25-year-old four-wheel drive.
There is also an issue related to the vehicle itself but more associated with certain owners. Many used Land Cruisers are loaded with accessories such as bullbars, rock sliders, steel rear bars, spare wheel carriers, and roof trays, among others. When combined with luggage, passengers, or even a camper or caravan, it’s easy to exceed the vehicle’s Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM). While some may not be concerned about this, authorities are increasingly enforcing weight limits, and exceeding the GVM can have serious implications for insurance in case of an accident. So, it’s essential to stay within legal limits to avoid potential issues.
Interior:
As these vehicles age, the interior plastics can become brittle and prone to breaking. Consequently, many owners report rattles and unusual noises. However, it’s worth noting that the Land Cruiser isn’t intended to be a luxury vehicle, so some level of noise and rattling can be expected with age.
The handbrake assembly can be problematic unless it has been set up perfectly. Another potential issue is a seal in the A/C evaporator behind the glove box that can deteriorate and cause leaks into the passenger footwell. Fortunately, this is a relatively straightforward fix. Additionally, the heater core may require replacement by now.
Occasionally, there may be electrical gremlins, but overall, these are the most common interior issues. Considering the age, the distances these vehicles travel, and the type of use they endure, their

Mechanically:
When discussing common issues with the Toyota Land Cruiser 100 and 105 series, it’s important to note that these vehicles are now quite old, with diverse service histories and various modifications.
Consequently, the ownership experience can vary significantly, with some having been subjected to rugged off-road adventures to remote camping sites, while others have led a more sedate life shuttling between caravan parks.
To distinguish between the 105 and 100 series, it might seem confusing initially, but it essentially boils down to their suspension systems:
- The 105 series retains old-school solid axles both front and rear, similar to the older 80 series.
- In contrast, the 100 series features independent front suspension (IFS) with a solid rear axle.
Let’s delve into the engines across these variants, all of which are known for their remarkable reliability:
- 1HZ 6-Cylinder Diesel: In its standard form, this engine is robust, with occasional issues like oil leaks, loose manifold nuts, broken studs, and fuel pump leaks. Well-maintained examples can easily exceed 500,000 km. Replacing injectors every 250,000 km is typically the only major concern. However, caution is advised with Land Cruisers that have had aftermarket turbo kits, as their reliability can be compromised if not properly installed and tuned.
- 1HD Diesel: Considered one of the best late-model diesel engines, it shares similarities with the 1HZ and can also surpass 500,000 km. It may experience oil and fuel leaks around injectors and injector lines, which are relatively straightforward and affordable to fix. Occasionally, fuel pump issues may arise, making regular fuel filter changes highly advisable.
- 1FZ 6-Cylinder Petrol: This engine is the least popular among these Land Cruisers. Complaints often center around oil consumption, smoky idling and take-off due to valve stem seal issues. Head gasket problems can occur, especially if coolant maintenance is neglected. There have been instances of coil and ignition lead failures, typically related to service and maintenance.
- 2UZ V8 Petrol: This V8 engine is known for its solidity and reliability, albeit with a penchant for fuel. As long as it’s well-serviced, sudden catastrophic failures are rare, making it a dependable choice.
It’s important to note that all these engines have timing belts, except the 1FZ 6-cylinder petrol, which has a timing chain. The timing belts need replacement at 150,000 km intervals.
Moving on to other mechanical aspects of the vehicle:
- The independent suspension used in these Land Cruisers is prone to cracking control arms at the torsion bar mount. Strengthening bracket kits can address this issue. If the vehicle has been lifted, it’s highly recommended to install a front differential drop kit to correct driveshaft angles and prevent CV joint breakage.
- Solid axle 105 models may experience front axle seal leaks, particularly at swivel hubs. It’s essential to check breathers to prevent issues.
- Control arm, panhard rod mounts, and chassis cracks may develop in the 105 series, typically due to rigorous off-road use.
- Heater core and blend actuators may require repair, necessitating dashboard removal.
- Issues with the master cylinder, ABS accumulator, and control module can be expensive to replace but are sometimes repairable.
Regarding transmissions:
- Automatic transmissions (both 4 and 5-speed variants) are generally reliable if properly serviced.
- The R151 transmission can be weak when paired with the 1HZ engine, particularly when used with aftermarket turbos or for towing. However, it can be modified and improved for better performance.
- The H151 transmission, found in turbo-spec models, is notably robust.
- Differentials may experience bearing wear and tear, with a risk of bearing failure if regular servicing is neglected.
Finally, it’s essential to be cautious of dodgy second battery installations and accessory wiring and to avoid running wiring through bulkheads without proper grommets. Poor tunes on turbo diesels and heavily modified versions can introduce a range of uncertainties, so thorough inspection and maintenance are key.
