    Shoulda kept it!

    TL;DR - Of the many vehicles I've enjoyed owning over the years, the 2005 T4R V8 LTD 4x4 is one that I wish I kept. I bought my 4R private sale with 116k miles and immediately fell in love with it. The locking center diff, the VSC disable, the comfort, the rear roll down window...I could...

    Thank you and goodbye, 4th Genners

    For the most part, yes. I quickly found out I was spoiled by certain "creature comforts" of the 4R like the mini visors, the permanent 4WD system, locking center diff, auto heat/ A/C, ease of installing an aftermarket sound system and a few other small things however I am totally enjoying the...

    Thank you and goodbye, 4th Genners

    Well, a sad day has come and gone as I sold my 05 V8 recently. I can say with certainty the 2005 V8 4R is squarely in the top 3 favorite cage vehicles I've owned. It did everything I needed and it not once left me stranded. I could go on for many thousands of words that would describe my time...

    V8 Throttle body buildup? Any ideas?

    Well, yeah, that's kinda the obvious answer. My comment was more about the immediate option of repairing the leak in the event the seal wasn't available.....figured OP might be in a situation of needing his vehicle since I saw that RTV was being used.

    I would advise against RTV and instead spend the $4 for a sheet of gasket material and cut your own.

    Does anyone actually use DAC?

    I use it more often than I care to admit............. which is every fricken time my GPS cord gets caught between the fold out armrest tray and the DAC button. Otherwise not used.

    How to turn off traction control?!

    You misspelled "My parents have a 2007 4Runner SR5 4WD..." :yo:

    Screeching noise from engine-most likely cause?

    Guessing plastic pulley contacting the rubber belt is what's making the noise. I know mine sounds horrible for at least the first 30min of driving. Loss of coolant might be related to the radiator seams failing . Consider inspecting the radiator for signs of leakage.

    4th Gen specific for sale thread

    No worries beween you and I. What got me is the instant gratification crowd showed up and felt the need to butt in with their two cents. The good thing is, there are 4 people whose word I probably wouldn't trust when securing a sale being that they apparently don't possess a basic level of...

    I also said to PM me but since you dont have time to wait around then I'd guess you also wouldnt offer something to someone after they clearly stated it might be a day or two before they get back to you...,.....I mean since you're in such a rush to sell a bumper that's been collecting dust for 6...

    Do I get a chance to respond? Seems kinda shitty to make the offer to one person then make a deal with someone else before that first person responds..... But that's just me. :tsk:
