Just an update on the knocking sound. Toyota has said there is a problem and they are now investigating. All of the 300 Series models we have tested have exhibited the knocking sound. Statement from Toyota below:
Full details: www.carexpert.com.au/car-news/toyota-investigating-landcruiser-300-series-knocking-noise
“Toyota Australia has identified that on some LC300 vehicles, a light knocking noise may emanate from the front steering area whilst driving at low speed over small corrugations.
“This is not detrimental to the operation of the steering or the vehicle. We have requested our Dealers report any instances of this occurring, to further support our investigation into this phenomenon,” it said.
I hate to be that guy, but if this was a land rover everyone would be saying "thEy're nOt rEliAble anD tHis pRoVes theY'rE rUbBisH" 😂
@@aaronadkins8234 They're rubbish indeed and I'm a LR owner.
Came back just to see if there's any update. Thanks
Can be sway bar bushes
My FJ cruiser had the same issue. Toyota could not find it in 6 years. Replaced everything you could think of, no luck.
I think boot measurements (L*W*H) and a comment on driving lights at night would be good additions to future reviews
Had the 300 series for a few weeks and I must say its been performing very well
pros:
- Beautiful design. Absolutely timeless
- Comfortable suspension
- A lot of offroad features
- Amazing power and torque
- Super quite and smooth engine noise(from the cabin)
- High ground clearance
- Luxurious front cabin interior
- Better fuel economics than the previous generation
- Super big luggage capacity
- Can fit 4 kids/thin adults in the middle row and all 4 is still comfortable and have plenty of space
- Electrically reclinable 3rd row seats
- Simple to understand and super high quality physical buttons
- Lots of safety and on-road features
Cons:
- Rear interior could be more luxurious for the price
- Needs more soft touch materials/leather in the cabin at this pricepoint
- RSE should have more functions like navigation, etc, and the graphic quality can be better
- 3rd row seat have plenty of room, but extremely low seats, which would make you end up squatting
- Suspension comfort can be a little better at this price point, although it can smooth out bigger bumps/potholes in lower speeds very well
- Infotainment system is a little confusing
Gas consumption?
@@lebleb8603 got like 7/8 km/L in the city
I got the gr300 love it
@@dude-kq4qd how is the rear seat comfort for long runs , and is the diesel engine worth it
9 minutes in, and I’ve lost count already how many times Paul has said
“ a little disappointing “
New LC is a fail in so many ways
14 years of LC 200, and then this.
Toyota did not try hard at all.
Toyota did the minimum, and will rely on reputation to sell this vehicle.
$ 150 k on road
Plus options & accessories
No rear diff lock
Oh well, at least the clunk / rattle sound from the front suspension comes standard.
It's Toyota being Toyota. They've got that big they don't care and they know sheep will just buy one because of the badge.
@@phonicfrog_ Yup fully agree. They have gotten so lazy because they have full trust in all the fanboys (ermagud JDM), uninformed (Toyota reliable doesn't need oil), and ancients (back in my day the Hilux and LC was indestructible).
Price wise I agree it's a bit overpriced, anything else tho I personally think this car is great inside and out. Truly a big improvement from the previous generation.
@@phonicfrog_
Exactly
The sheeple of the Church of Toyota will buy it in droves..

Every vehicle has gone way up in price in the last 18 months.
The GVM is still poor
If u get it as a 7 seater
Room in Row 3 is poor
And Row 2 is fixed
Row 2 doesn’t slide forward or back, so it’s compromised, when u want versatility to seat 6 passengers.
Row 2 is not particularly spacious for a vehicle of this size, and seems to be very little toe room in Row 2…
👎🏼
The GXL model is
$ 110 k on road
Plus options and accessories
No power tailgate
No surround view camera
Not available at all
Diff locks are not available
You need to get this done aftermarket…
The biggest let down is the lack of rear split tailgate!
It is far less practical as a full door rather than being split.
I'm surprised they opted out for that really. They could have made the automatic full door an option. But probably would have hindered production.
Car touch screens are getting bigger than my old TV from 20 years ago.
Lol
I toted a 16” pig all over the nation.
I can’t wait for the 2022 ranger review.
Amazing review. Was waiting for this ZX trim review. What’s a bit funny is that people across the globe are in waiting for 4 years before they could get their hands on their Land Cruiser, you guys get to drive 3 Lane Cruiser in the course of time. They are gonna be so jealous. 😂😂
The infotainment screen and the centre console seemed a bit wobbly, definitely more than a defender or Range Rover, I know those cars are nowhere near as reliable as this, so LC fans don’t kill me, but for the kind of money you’re spending for this ZX or GR sport, I personally expect better.
Literally just rewatch the Defender review and I can tell the build quality is pretty much the same, in fact the upper trim of the Defender is actually more wobbly compare to this LC.
The Sahara ZX should have a 6 seater option with captain chairs in the 2nd row. Makes the most sense in this spec.
Just ordered mine last week. Can’t wait to see mine in 2026..
Enjoy bro I just got one an have it booked in for the goodies stage
Epic
Quality Content! Keep up the good work.
Another wicked review thank you!
I love LCs but if they are going to creep into range rover prices, they need a new team for the interior design. Looks like they randomly added that screen as an after thought. Doesn't really seem to be in the same class as other luxury SUVs. And if someone says "we don't want luxury, we want reliability", then buy a 70series or a hilux and get on with it. This seems like an awkward space in between range rover, as far as price goes, and Nissan as far as luxury and design goes.
Exactly my thoughts. Soon as i saw that interior i said to myself "yup that's a toyota alright". Normally that wouldn't be an issue but those ridiculous prices do not justify the kind of value you can get
They cost this much because people pay.
I agree. Range Rover interior is absolutely stunning including the display. I wish they were more reliable in reputation. Such a pity to have to go with the ugly, outdated looking LC. The screen looks like it was made 10 years ago. Sad but true.
Because they are on huge demand due to their brilliant track record as a reliable premium brand than any other. Waiting list to get a new LC 300 is 12 months as we speak since the demand is so high than the supply. All shipment were sold on the first day of the launch, goes to show you why the price is justified irregardless of whether you like it or not. Toyota is the new epitome of class and reliability in contemporary automobile world.
Landcruiser knows its worth 🤷🏾♂️
Looks beautiful
Excellent video 😊
This channel is by far my favourite car review channel.
This particular car is a total letdown you spend all the money for the upgrade model and they don’t even finish the inside area properly like cupholders for seats that aren’t there.
No back window privacy screen.
A Mazda CX9 has basically all that and more for one third of the price.
I waited so long for the 300 series and ordered a Y 62 patrol
It almost has all the feature of my 40k Great Wall Cannon.
This guy deserves a million subscribers
I do really like your car reviews 👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
Another great review... love the attention to detail! Sadly we don:t get the LC300 here in the U.S. so if I want one I:ll have to get the Lexus LX which I don:t mind but they are pricey
Would love if you show the sun roof options and operations on your videos. You hardly mention if the car has a sun roof. You are by far the most thorough car reviewer with small silly but surprisingly important things like the durometer and the door test. Constructive criticism, keep up the great work.
Paul showed it on the GR Sport which is the same one as this Sahara. But he probably could mention it. I'm surprised they don't have panoramic options, or standard for the money they ask/demand.
Love watching your reviews as I find them very detailed and useful for real world use. Could you please review this vehicle on your new test track and also see if the knocking sound has been addressed. Thanks.
Paul another great review. We ordered the VX in October and are waiting for advice when it will be delivered. We think the LandCruiser will suit our needs in our retirement travelling Australia.
I couldn't care less whether the cup holders take a coffee cup or a water bottle. Surely there are a million more important things about a car.
You must be new here, he does this with every car - I don’t see anything wrong in being consistent.
@@User-cb4jm nah I watched these videos for a long time now. I'd rather he spend a lot more time assessing build quality for example than talk about cup holders.
Sees title in recommended, likes and shares with everyone of my friends before i sit down and watch.
Toyota land cruiser is just a beast off road!
Love your detailed reviews Paul!
i think you guys should hit 1mil subs "with no draaamas at all" lol
As a "sunroof enthusiast" it always baffles me that you don't get a panoramic sunroof for that price point in both Prados and Landcruisers.
Lc owners usually install roof racks and carry luggage, panoramic has no use. Like my GXL has no sunroof, feels more rigid.
We don't even get a sunroof option in South Africa...
go for a Toyota Harrier-has panoramic roof and all the fluffy stuff
the GR sport probably leans in to corners more because the suspension can be allowed to be softer because the anti roll bars are equally tighter, which is why you also mentioned it rode more comfortably than the other car
Wooo so very nice Toyota 2022 is very AMAZING car
Thanks for great sharing dear friend
Gretting from Macau China
Love that blue perfect hue for the car
Thanks a lot!
Love the review .. is this Saturn blue or Eclipse black
Reviewing the Sahara ZX while wearing Sahara boots
good one.
NEW LANDCRUISER 😍👍🏻
Awesome and details review.
Anyone count how many times he says ' drama' ? 😁
Hey Paul! Would you be planning on reviewing the 2022 Kia Cerato Gt any time soon? Would be great to see your thoughts 😄
Watching with interest Landcruiser patrol Ram reviews for a purchase in the new year and can’t decide which is going to suit my needs they are all so good
OMGGGGG I LOVE THE SAHRAAAAAAAA
Nice vids
Any chance of testing a GX? Everyone seems to test the luxury models but we don't all have 150k to splash around. The GX seems to be the forgotten child. The GX has feelings to you know?
i just love that 4WD burning rubbers lol
wow i love this car especially in this trim looks very nice in this blue colour now we have to wait this car in 4 years this is crazy actually and i love lc300 series
This is a lovely car
I just love this SUV… my ultimate dream car!
Saw one of these in Perth the other day.
Probably one of the only 500 LC's down under at the moment 😂
Hey Paul, are you able to do an off-road review of the Pajero sport?
Great reviews Paul. I ordered the GR S in November and still no action on the build yet from Toyota. Originally they were talking about a six month wait, however, I think that is likely to be extended.
Did you get it yet?
@@Bluesky.AG. Yes I did. My GR sport arrived unexpectedly in March. I have been very happy with it since. All the off road equipment works perfectly. I have just had the first service done.
@@paddy9507 Congratulations and thanks btw
@@paddy9507 How much oil did it burn?
After all the reviews I've read/watched, and having waited with great anticipation on the arrival of the 300 the last couple of years, I have to admit I'm a little let down by the final product. Seriously looking to upgrade my 2014 Jeep GC which is now too small for my growing family, and needing a capable off roading tourer that can seat 5 pax comfortably, the Nissan Patrol is in my opinion a much better proposition in terms of price, comfort, practicality, space, off-road ability and driving dynamics (I test drove both). Plus that price difference buys a hell of a lot of fuel and I've heard that the way the engine has been shoe horned into that engine bay, makes it a tad difficult to work on. Paul, you asked the question at the end of the video regarding the interior of the Nissan... I have to agree 100%. If Nissan pull their finger out of the proverbial and upgrade the interior and charge another $10k for it (will still be shed loads cheaper than the LC), they'll sell like hotcakes here in Australia. Nissan take my money damn it, but only after you've upgraded that hideous interior and upgrade the tech!! Keep up the awesome work team CE!!
If u get an aftermarket company to upgrade the old fashion wood trim in the Patrol to carbon fibre, or whatever u want, it then looks excellent.
Yup. Patrol for me too!
I feel the exactly the same
And fix their flaking paint issues, that’s a major one for me. I’ve held off 5 years waiting for Nissan to fix it . Suppose to be a new clear coat applied in June 21 onwards but I’ve seen two now saying paint is starting to lift, FFS Nissan can’t be that hard to fix the paint
If you want a great good priced car, the Hyundai palisade is amazing, my parents have one, it has a bigger front screen, has a button where you can fold down the seats at the back and heaps more. Look at his palisade video
Great review as always!
In South Africa these are selling for about $190k AUD. I really can’t see how they can charge so much for this.
cars are expensive here and the LC is really brought by white people only, the ones with the money. Toyota figured they can up the price and it'll still sell. i love patrol but even at 1.6 million its still expensive and fuel bills are crrrrr
They can charge so much because people will buy them! Toyota introduced the 300 in Kenya a month ago and all units they brought were sold out immediately in a day! So yea. Folks will buy them. And they’ll buy them in plenty.
@@DiscoverJoe The order are so massive to a point the minimum waiting list is 12months after pre-order since they production cannot meet the demand and due to the fact there's a shortage in some equipment necessary to facilitate production of the LC300. People love this cars
From what I understand, Landcruisers are engineered and built to higher standard in terms of durability and strength than the average four wheel drive, of course this will translate into higher cost which might make a Landcruiser seem expensive over competition, especially in a world where car journalists only ever drive new cars and are unable to judge durability.
I have a 2010 LX and the sunglasses holder in the ceiling is tight for most sunglasses. I'm surprised to see that a brand new model still has a rather cramped sunglass holder. Seems they could have changed the shape to accommodate more sunglass sizes.
Paul. Is there any update on the knocking noice? Does this happen only in off-road mode?
It would have been nice if they had hidden the rear wiper underneath the spoiler like most top range SUVs are now doing, looks cleaner
Like the reviews ....(wishlist) a little more off-road intensity
6.84 Patrol V8 still the 🏆
They should have a 7 seat option for the GR sport and Sahara ZX
Hi Paul I would like to see the landrover discovery compared to bmw x7 and mercedes benz GLS
Second row seat leg room is a concern for a car of this size
I am still struggling with the price of these
Yay Sahara ZX
You australians are lucky, here in pakistan they cost about 500,000 USD which is absolutely insane. However what alot of people do is that they get a LC200 instead and uplift it so that it looks exactly like the LC300 apperance aside from the engine ofcourse, which i find pretty cool since its a v8 lol
CarExpert: How many reviews should we do of the new 300 series Land Cruiser?
Also CarExpert: yes
yes not one two or three of them
Yes...i want to watch all of them..currently waiting mine...in 12 month waiting list 😬
Love this review .. please do GX and GXl review too
Hey PAUL, which model would you buy?if you we're in the market for one.
What a design tragedy! The 2022 Land Cruiser 300 Series loses its split tailgate! On our LC200 we use the lower split tailgate all the time, to stand on, to sit on, as a table, as a workbench, as a place to put computers, cameras, drones etc etc etc, whilst the upper split provides protection from sun and rain. The one-piece tailgate on the new LC300 removes all of that fun and convenience and would absolutely stop us from buying one.
Good call. It's very disappointing indeed to take away such a handy bit of kit. I have a ute and I use the tailgate all the time.

You nailed it with the interior of the patrol. If we had the armada in Australia. The 300 series would be in trouble if prices remained the same
From Bangladesh 🇧🇩✌️
Looks alot nicer when you were coming doen the dirt decent then it does just sitting there.
I heard $140K & changed channels. It's far too rich for my blood.
Lexus prices, Corolla interior
Toyota tax
Ridiculous, the price. You can buy a SsangYong korando 2022, for under 40k 👍 It doesn't have as much leg room in the back, as the korando.
@@Susan-md6nd are you comparing ssang yong to Toyota? Lmao
Does MuX fulfil what lc300 offers?
Paul, you have couple of white patches on your nails, which indicates vitamin b 12 deficiency. Please check your bloods.
It was an excellent presentation as always. Good job mate.
Bro is the seven seating option available in this model or not
The 3rd row air vents make a lot of sense, even in a five seater, for the dogs 🐶 🐶
I have been disappointingly waiting for 13 months for LC 300 Sahara zx with pearl white in Darwin .I placed my order even before production was started.
They are getting arrogant with the pricing
Toyota tax
Paul, you said you'll do LC300 GX but end up doing Sahara ZX.
I think it is drastically over priced, and I don't believe it will be as reliable as previous Land Cruisers. No worries for me as we don't get it here in Canada. Another great review, Paul.
Bro this is australia. In North America this car would be 30%-40% cheaper
@@marcoadamberger4456In Canada our prices start at $129,500 so ours are $10 grand more.
Just checked with a Local sutherland car dealership - estimated wait time for delivery is 2023
For such a big car the second row space is to small and bench is not moving to make it better.
Got my GX-R (South Africa 🇿🇦 spec)
Has the same 'knock' / noise driver's side and it feels like a Steering rack + Suspension thing.
Have you heard from Toyota?
En que pais se hizo este video?

Is there a specific reason the steering is still hydraulic? It seems outdated but am I missing a Benefit to hydraulic steering?
Have had my LC300 Sahara for a month now and that knock on the front right does my head in. Spoken to the dealer and they are surprised and can't replicate it. The second row seat also rattles. Would love to hear how you go about with the noise and Toyota. It's the only let down compared to my LC200
Friend has the same issue on his 300 GR, slightly peeved is a understatement with cost of 300 !
How do you guys already have the land cruiser? Did you preorder or something?
This is what you get for shopping blind. Next time test drive it before you buy it.
Had my LC300 VX since early December and now done 2700kms and NO knocking noise whatsoever. Traded my 2021 LC200 for this and no regrets. Fuel economy is vastly improved with noticeable increase in performance. I would not go back to a LC200.
@@dennisjohnson4992 But have you tested it across low speed corrugations? That's when it makes the noise. Please advise! TIA
Wish Toyota brings back the 80 series they look good and a well performing SUV 4X4.
New 300 having that knocking noise in the steering column too? It was a common issue on the 120 and 150 prado in the same situations at low speed on corrugations. Happened to my 120. It's a uni joint bushing that was the issue and the only fix is a new intermediate shaft in the column.
nice . just wish we could get a LC 300 GX in the states $90k is only $64,490 us $ as of 1/25/2022 id buy a LC 300 over a defender, id be happy with the v6 gas, we are getting a new sequoia not sure if its global sold ?
If you want to do some serious driving around our big beautiful country LC is the only choice for mine
"It's a little bit dramatic, but it got up without any dramas" 😅
4:53 center console is moving visibilly and "very solid"
LC competes against LR Defender and Disco.
$ 90 k to $ 160 k price range.
Both LR have a higher payload, and can still tow 3.5 tonne at their GVM
LC can’t do this.
LC still has an average payload / GVM, and still can’t tow 3.5 tonne, when it’s at its low GVM.
LR are much more space efficient inside, and offer more space v the LC, particularly the Disco in Row 3.
Both LR allow Row 2 seats to slide forward / back to enable more versatility with how u seat 6 passengers
LC can’t do this.
LC Row 2 is ok, but not much toe room, and Row 3 is cramped in the LC.
All new RR gets to Australia in June.
It’s priced from $ 220 k
RR competes with LC size wise, but a RR is in another universe of luxury v the LC.
But, for its price, you’d expect that.
LC is average in so many ways.
Took Toyota 14 years to release a new LC, and it’s definitely nothing special at all.
right now seems that the 90% world production of lc 300/lx 600 are in the middle east.
What’s the difference between this model and VX-R for the Asian market?
It does steer back into its lane because it a hydraulic steering with a electric actuator add to it . (epos) .
Nah it’s a brake pulse system. It doesn’t lane keep like a proper EPAS setup.
How many bells and how many whistles exactly do you get?
what is the best trim for off road?
10:03 have you ever had a steering wheel at the back ???
Is there a 7 seater of this zx sahara
I have the same front suspension noise
How to decide which button to press when off roading
Dose it have the head up display
What I don’t get is what’s the point of wireless charging if you still need to plug in for CarPlay?
awesome Land Cruiser 300 series 3.5 L cylinder volume # steering , as i understand , has both electrical power & hydraulic power # most likely electrical motor transfers power through hydraulic pistons # ❤️🇵🇰
