Is it really that bad? Are your issues mostly with the actual navigation feature or the way the entire unit functions? I've been looking at GX's for a little while now and I'd really like to get something with the NAV system, but more for the backup camera than anything. It is pretty rare that...

The police should just give their guns to the property/business owners and let them all sort it out themselves.

I put a set of those on my '93 pickup, and painted them black: I've been thinking of doing the same for my 4runner. The only thing I was worried about was the backspacing, and I can't remember if they were 16" or 17" wheels?

I guess I might as well update this. Everything was fine for a while with the cold weather, but then after it warmed up a bit, the system tried to turn on and a code popped for either a valve stuck open or pump stuck on. This was expected, so I just bypassed the system. Everything went well...

That's good that they offer a warranty on the parts and labor. There is a bypass for the tundra/sequoia/4runner's with the v8, so I don't know if it will work on the 3rd generation.

My bad, took a look around the 3rd gen, general discussion and pictures section and didn't see anything

Well, okay it is actually "under" the snow: The Most Compelling Photos in the World Right Now http://s7d2.scene7.com/is/image/TWCRoadRunner/_2014-11-20T09-34-30_71d75d96a87e42e0872549392d418a9b?wid=617&hei=446&fit=constrain

I would be calling back to their customer service people since you had better luck with them. Two threads on an internet forum as technical research is just plain lazy. I'd be asking the customer service people if you can talk to a supervisor in the tech department. You have to remember that...

They aren't going to warranty anything parts related. If you have a 4Runner and they were nice enough to fix the problem under warranty, I wouldn't count on them doing it again after you are out of warranty (even with the known issues with the sequoia and tundra). There are people who have...

Sorry, for the old thread bump, found this while searching for something else. One question: Is it your truck or his truck? Since you are married, it doesn't matter who's name it is in, it belongs to both of you. Hell, my last motorcycle was in my wife's name, didn't mean a damn thing...

Well after messing around with it some this weekend, it appears to be fixed. The first shot was placing two equal resistors in the system. One (R1) between the sensor input (blue/red wire) and output (white/blue wire), and one (R2) between the sensor output (white/blue wire) and ground...

Sorry for your loss. Is your name also on the lease? If not, I see no reason to keep it. If it is on there, I'd be taking a good look at the lease contract to see if you are really forced to keep it. I say this because while your 4Runner may indeed be worth what you are asking, it may take...

Okay, after looking into the system some more, and reading a huge thread on the bypass over on tundra solutions, I've found what I think will trick the ECU into thinking the sensor is on. The bypass will only trick the ecu into not turning the AIP system on when the engine is starting. My...

Interesting. I haven't even seen any 2wd V8's for sale here, only V6's. I just assumed they didn't make them.

Well after looking into it, the sensor is part of the valve. Well at least I can't find the sensor anywhere by itself. I think I am going to bypass the sensor at the ecu and give it an artificial 2.5v from somewhere. I'm not 100% sure what the logic of the ECU is with this input and if it...
