To be honest, I am kind of sad to see the 4Runner start to lose it's old school, and simple identity. Don't get me wrong, I like tech features especially the 8" screen with Android Auto. However, 1 of the coolest things about the 4Runner is how it reminds me of older generations trucks. One...

2020 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro and 2020 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro Th off-road versions of Toyota's mid-size SUV and full-size truck were treated to some changes, too. The 4Runner TRD Pro gets a new grille design and all versions of the 2020 4Runner finally come standard with automatic emergency...

Why not contact someone like SOUNDMAN and see if they can do a dash panel with a tablet in it. They have done hundreds of vehicles with ipads and android tablets. I personally wouldn't touch the dash of the 4runner, but I want it to stay stock. I used to install aftermarket radios and do...

I have 97K miles on the 4runner (purchased new in 2011). I was thinking about changing the trans fluid (drain and fill not flush). I was planning on dropping the pan just to clean the pan, magnets and swapping the trans filter or strainer+pan gasket. Everything would cost around $115 for the...

Usually car manufacturers will have 1.5 - 2.0 gallons once you hit 0 MILES. If you are getting 15 mpg, then expect to drive 22 to 30 more miles after you hit 0 MILES. If you are getting more than 15 mpg then expect a little more. However, I advised you not to drive it until it runs out of...

I think it's just your "beltline weatherstrip" which sits against the glass and made of fibers/felt is wet and this is why the window is wet when you roll it up/down.

Our 2011 SR5 has almost 97K miles. We bought it brand new and I have never changed the diff nor the transfer case oils. I bought the oil earlier this week and will replace them probably next week. The front and transfer case I am not too concerned about. I do want to see the rear though...

Our 4R SR5 is a 2011 with almost 97K miles and I have never lubed the drive shaft. I bought a new grease gun and a tube of Mobil1 XHP 222 (Lithium Grease Multipurpose) and will do this PM this weekend or next. I will use the grease I purchased for both the yoke and spider. I noticed in my...

I know it's been over 2 years since I posted my last comment here on this forum, but I only roll down the window to swipe my work badge to enter the parking lot.

Hi, I am highly interested in doing this mod for my family's 2010 SR5. Did you end up getting it to work? If you did can you please let me know what exactly is needed to get this mod working? I believe you said the sensor is rewuired and the stalk or switch with the wire harness and that's...

Thanks you all for the replies. 1 last thing :) Like today we had lots of snow and I had it in 4H. I went to Walmart and their parking lot was cleaned up by the time I got there. I tried to park the truck and forgot 4H was on and thats when I felt it almost wanting to stop. I should have...

True, I did read that. But I noticed even on snow when you turn, the steering wheels gets heavy and the truck starts to wanting to stop

I am a new SR5 owner and I have to say that I think the 4Runner has the weakest windows motors I have had in any vehicle. I have never had so many stuck/frozen windows in the 10+ vehicles I have driven. I think the motors are not that strong. It bothers me, but definitely not a deal breaker...

Hello, I purchased a 2011 SR5 this past March. Overall, I am happy with the truck. I only added 1 thing to the truck, Narf Bars. I had a 2005 Honda Pilot before the SR5. This is my first REAL SUV. I never considered the Pilot a real SUV. When I bought the SR5, I never asked questions...
