I have a 2003 V6 4Runner. Since our boy Hurricane Ike is headed our way, I went to fill up my tank at lunch. The gas station was out of all but premium gas, so I filled up with that although I normally just use regular unleaded. As soon as I headed down the road, my Check Engine light and the...

Hey All, Thanks for your responses. It turns out that McGard does make the Toyota brand locks and will ship parts directly to you. The key costs $15 plus shipping. Their number is 1-800-444-5847

Thanks for the responses everybody. I don't think I got a piece of paper with the code on it, but I went to a Toyota dealer on saturday and they matched my locks with their master key set and gave me the number (54). They told me that these are Toyota brand locks, but they could be wrong. I...

I went to a dealership because I couldn't find any document relating to the wheel locks. The dealership checked them and told me that they were Toyota locks and gave me a number. I don't want to wait two weeks for the dealer to order them. Any ideas?

I need to buy a replacement stock wheel lock key for my 03 4Runner. I habve called several dealerships in the area (Houston) and have found that no one has them in stock. They can order them, but it takes at least 2 weeks to get the part in. Does anyone know of an online site that carries...

Thanks. I'll try that.

I hate to do it, but... Bump

I don't know if you are still looking, but... The Trailblazer/Envoy will probably be of substandard quality. I had a Chevy car and it was the biggest piece of garbage I have ever driven. I would never consider any GM vehicle. Even if you think the price/quality tradeoff is worth it, you...

I have an 03 Limited with the 10 speaker system. When I play certain songs with a lot of bass, I get really bad vibrations from the front door panels. The worst rattle seems to come from the power window and door lock switches vibrating. While the noise is irritating, I am more concerned with...

No Such Thing As an SR5 Limited!!! This bastard stole someone's Limited badge. Some scumbag stole all the the badges off my old 99 Limited and scratched the hell out of my paint. Luckily, the dealer either didn't notice or care when I traded it in for my 03. You have to be a sorry, insecure...

I personnaly hate the front cup holders in the 4th gen 4Runners. They cant hold anything very well. I like the ones in the back armrest better. Even so, I still think the cup holders in my previous 4Runner(99 Limited) were much better.

Maybe I'm crazy, but this doesn't seem to work on my 03 Limited. O have used RainX on other cars and it works much better than on the supposedly treated windows on my 4Runner. Maybe they just need a good cleaning.

I have noticed a few people complain about headroom. I'm 6'2" and haven't had that problem in my 2003 or my 1999. Both have sunroofs. I don't tilt the seatback very far back, but I do use the power seats to set the bottom of the seat to the lowest position in the rear part of the seat...

What is the Highlander package? I know it was offered on 3rd Gen, but I never found out what it was.

I recently traded in a 1999 Limited 2WD for a 2003. My old 4Runner had 95,000 miles and never had a single problem of any kind. The thing was still on its original brake pads. The only reason I traded it in was because I wanted the safety features of the new ones. I can't recommend 3rd Gen...
