  • valve clearance

    HI everyone this is my first post ,have been reading posts and I am glad I bought one of these great 4wd.We have a 2007 cherry {burgandy} D4D diesel with mickey thompsons ATZ 4 ,ARB bullbar etc.etc.I do all services myself but have had issues trying to find information on adjusting the valve clearance on these new engines.Toyota's response from a few dealers is that if it is not rattling or making noise we don't touch them.The service manual says every 50 000 km i think.I have a cd of the engine which is basically an exploded view ,more a parts manual then anything but I can't find or buy a workshop manual anywhere.The V8,s are hydraulic and I wish these were the same but unfortunately the prado has shims .I am basically trying to find out the process in which I can check the valve clearance of the engine.Any help would be much appreciated.

    No shims on the D4D, it has solid lifters. If the clearance is out of spec you replace the whole lifter with a new one of a size that brings the clearance back into spec (Available from Toyota in various sizes)


    Clearance is checked cold.

    Intake: 0.20-0.30mm
    Exhaust: 0.35-0.45mm

    With cylinder 1 on TDC; check the exhaust on cylinders 1 and 3 and the intake on cylinders 1 and 2.

    With cylinder 4 on TDC (rotate 360 degrees from TDC on cylinder 1); check exhaust on clyinders 2 and 4 and intake on 3 and 4.

    If any are out of spec you need to remove the lifter and measure it to determine the size of the new replacement lifter of the correct size.

      hey thanks for that i was under the impression that the 4 cylinders were shims like the old 1hz's .The sequence was what I was chasing ,i thought it would be a pretty standard procedure.once again thanks for your help.
