drove a Toyota Prado 120-series today
it didn’t end well, 4wd ended up on a towtruck, dumbarse techs didn’t tighten up front brake caliper bolts.
end result brake fluid leaking everywhere from rhf corner due to severed hard line, one gouged rim
Oh bugger!

I hope at the least the techs get a stern talking to....or sued as that could have potentially killed you...

Thanks for the reminder, I just replaced all the brakes on my 120 and I need to double check the caliper torque. I’ll do that tonight.
