    Engine oil cooler

    So I bought a new travel trailer the other day a Jayco 23B about 4,100lbs empty and maybe about 4,900lbs under full load and I was wondering what people here think about the need for an engine oil cooler on my 06 V6 runner? I did install a heavy duty trans oil cooler and I have done a hitch...

    VSC and "02"

    My "06" V6 4runner the other day threw the engine light and the VSC light at the same time and they both stayed on. I took it to the dealer today and they say I need a new "02" senser? The problem im having with this is why would the "02" senser effect the VSC? Why would the VSC light even pop?

    Switching to synthetic?

    Why do you want to switch now? If you have that many miles and it grew up on good Dino oil I would just stick with what it grew up on. Although I don't think it will have any ill effects if you do switch.

    Synthetic Engine Oil

    There should be no problem in switching to mobil 1 I would go with what the manual says as far as the oil weight. As far as the filter goes I would stick with the Toyota/Denso stock filter and buy them on line for the best deal or you could get a Wix or Napa Gold "same thing" on line at Fleet...

    Who Has The Most Miles On 4th Gen T4r

    I have 50K on my 06 V6 I bought in June of "06" and it runs better and better the more miles I put on. Some of you need to find a good side mechanic to do the simple things like change the diff fluids and spark plugs I have saved big $$$ with someone I trust. I do my own oil changes except...

After cutting them open though I must say I like the stock "Toyota/Denso D-3" as a real well made filter. Is it the best??? Does it filter better then any one of...
