Just changed the brake pads on the 4runner, how often do the rotors have to be changed? The 4runner has only 31K Miles. Thanks in Advance

Did you actually notice the power gain? Why did you choose Volant and not KN? Thanks

Your Rig looks sick, what type of Roof Rack is that?

Thanks for the replies guys, we got an appointment with our local dealer this Thursday, so hopefully the repair is not too expensive.

I have been noticing that the 2005 4Runner has a Vibration on the steering wheel when I hit the pedal, also there is a loud grinding noise when the 4Runner comes to a stop, not while pressing the pedal and slowing it down but when it stops and moves back. This 4Runner is my Pops, he...

I do have 32 inch Revo AT, but that shouldnt amount too much to the poor MPG. Sometimes I get heavy footed at the lights, but mostly I do city driving all the way to work. I have to pass my local traffic, then the Conjunction Junction, then 2 miles of freeway, and finally DC traffic. I have...

I have a 2005 4Runner V8 SR5, I am thinking of getting rid of it and getting a 2011 4Runner SR5. My gas in the V8 is about 12MPG on the computer, and I have calculated it at 11.5 MPG. Will the 2011 Provide a greater improvement in MPG of the 2005 V8, or will it not be worth trading in the V8?

I was reading about the hydrocarbon filter, does it really work?

Recently I have noticed a big change in MPGs I was averaging about 15.5 and now I am at 12.2. My driving habits have not changed and I keep up on the maintanice of my Rig. I understand that when its cold the air is thicker and thus making it hard to get better MPGs, but the weather has been...

During the winter months I get 11-13MPG but during the Summer months I get 15-16 MPG. Try not letting it warm up in the Morning, and take off any anti-arodynamic things(Bug Sheild, Window Deflectors). Also adjust your roof rack to get the best arodynamic shape from your truck. That alone...

I am def intrested in the rear bumper, I was looking at the CBI one but that is pricey. If the rear bumper is in the 1000-1700 range with powder paint, I am in.

We just had a average sized snow storm in Maryland this past week, and my 2005 4Runner V8 with Bridgestone Revo AT did excellent in the snow, no slipping, great traction, I did tried to get it stuck going up a pile of snow, but it just went up on the compacted snow. Last year I had a set of...

I just replaced my side-view mirrors on my 2005 SR5, now with the new set I have shaking from 15 mph to highway speed. Does anyone know a good way to stop this shaking, or is there a way to adjust the Mirrors?
