Changing timing belt
 
Hello,
First post on this forum, so glad we have this internet thing now.
Had my car in at the mechanics today, after checking the timing belt, he informed me that it is cracked and needs replacing. He quoted me almost $800 to change all of the pulley's, belts and water pump.
So, I'm going to put my mechanics hat on this weekend and replace the water pump and timing belt, possibly the tensioner.
From reading this forum I am looking for a few tips from you guys on how to best do this. I also have the following questions:
Is it necessary to remove the radiator?
Are there any special tools I will need to perform this procedure?
Will the TDC marks be easily visible when I get in there?
What is the easiest way to get the engine into TDC with an automatic transmission?

Thanks in advance,
-Edward

Changing timing belt
 
My father in law has a double cab hilux on a 53 plate. He had the timing belt changed last year, but now the light has come on to change the timing belt. Has anyone any idea on how to reset this light? Thanks in advance
