    Where to find Factory Service Manuals

    Hi, Im looking for a 2000 toyota 4runner FSM. I was able to download the 96-2002 4runner manual a long time ago, but when I open it, it says its for a 96 tacoma. I have noticed some info in there does not pertain to my 2000 4runner. Does anyone have, or know where I can obtain one. Much thanks...

    jh91304 - I have the exact Radio you have. Have you found your problem yet? I was doing some tinkering on mine and found those pots to not be what they are on the previous posters working mod. I think they are some sort of gain adjustment for the pre-amp, no signal going through them. Maybe a...

    Which Pads to buy? Organic, Semi-Metallic, Ceramic

    I would like to go all OEM, but cost prevents me. I cant afford to drop a ton of money on brakes. Also, what is the difference between a Texas Toyota dealer vs any other state dealer? Are OEM pads organic, ceramic, metallic? The online Toyota parts that I was able to find were all priced pretty...

    Which Pads to buy? Organic, Semi-Metallic, Ceramic

    Hey, Im sure this has been posted before, but I searched and didnt find much what I was looking for. I looking to do a brake job, I get shaky braking after driving for a while. I dont want to have my rotors cut because last time I had that done, who ever turned them did a poor job and the two...

    Shudder while braking - after driving a bit.

    I just got new drums off amazon and installed them yesterday. Made the problem worse. Turns out the drums I got were defective and were not concentric to the axle. What a bummer. So i put my old ones back on. When I spin the rear wheels I dont hear a big change in drag on the brakes. I suspect...

    Rear spring issue / ride hight?

    I installed the lift thingys( technical term), and it rides great. I ordered the 1.5" ones but it sure looks like its more than that. But it rides smooth and no more bouncing over small bumps.

    Intermittent Sputter when idle

    I do not have wires as in the traditional sense. I have 4 separate ignition coil packs that sit one on top of each plug. The only wires going each coil pack are small wires controlled by the ecu

    Rear spring issue / ride hight?

    Thanks, Ill put the order in right now. Im so tired of my back end going down and then coming to a hard stop on small bumps. Small as in normal driving on the streets, its horrible. The pics are from it not even loaded, as soon as me and my wife get in and go for a drive, the gap closes even...

    Intermittent Sputter when idle

    Yeah only at idle. It may do it while driving, but I cannot feel anything while its under load. Also, I have no plug wires, I have individual coil packs on top each. I think the ticking is from lifters. Its very faint, and I know its not a major problem tick noise, and its not my injectors...

    Rear spring issue / ride hight?

    Can someone tell me if these pics are normal? When I am driving I feel as if the rear is bottoming out, and these pics show the bumpers really close together. Is this normal, or do I need new springs? The truck itself doesn't look like its sagging. Can I remove the bottom rubber bumper for a...

    Intermittent Sputter when idle

    I got a 2000 4Runner 4 cyl with 160K miles. It runs great and has no leaks, but there is a concern of a problem in the future. When I am sitting in park idling, cold or warm doesnt matter, I have what seems to be a miss fire. I would say when idling at 700rpm, I feel a engine sputter every...

    Shudder while braking - after driving a bit.

    yes, i suspect its the rears as well because of how frequent the pulsing was. I know how a front rotor feels at a given speed, and this seems to feel double that rate. so I figure, drums have two spots of contact 180 apart as compared to rotors and their on spot. And perhaps thats where the...
