    Heater Problems - 2001 Limited

    Hi, all- It's been awhile! I have a 2001 Limited with about 80K miles that I just took in because my heater wasn't working. I could adjust the amount of air coming out of my vents, but the actual temparature would not adjust (even if the displayed number changed) if above around 65 degrees...

    Acknowledging other 4runners

    I noticed the same thing, that I've gotten no "waves" from other Runner drivers while on the road. Then again, maybe it's because I was driving naked with all my windows down singing along to Vanilla Ice at full blast...but still! juist kidding...I will make sure to start the waving trend...

    Big Feet + 4Runner = aggggh!

    Big Foot I'm a girl and also have (approximately) size 13 feet... just kidding. I've had the same issue, but only noticed it when I wear a pair of dress shoes that have longer toes (because they get narrower towards the tips). It's a problem I've seen in all my other cars, but before my...

    Few questions...

    Hi, all- I bought a 2001 Limited 4Runner (automotic) in August '03, and I have a few questions (I travel alot for work, so I still consider it a relatively new car for me!)... 1. SAGGING - The tail end of my car seems to sag a bit...and it sits about 2 inches lower than other 3rd-gen 4Runners...
