My son’s ‘98 has a really whiny pump after a few hours of driving. Last year I cleaned the reservoir and flushed the system. If it needs a new pump - my guess is yes - what brand is a good one to purchase?

My son’s 98 Limited got tagged in a parking lot the other day. Looks like I need a bumper cover, and maybe a right front fender. I was looking at carparts.com... the have a bumper cover with the valence for about $260.00 shipped. Any tips or suggestions on who to purchase parts from?

At the moment seems limited to the driver window switch. Deoxit sprayed on the contacts (harness and plug side) resolves temporarily. I’ve ordered a replacement assembly from SwitchDoctor.com.

It appears to be the switch.

1998 4Runner Limited. Right side required a lot of push/pull on the switch to move - I cleaned the harness/plug with deoxit a few months back but now it is both sides/windows and any/either switch. I’m thinking a common point but this is my 16 year old sons vehicle (new to him) and I’m not too...

Well... I've had time today to put my own basic OBD II tool on the machine. I did not pull the codes that O'Reilly did - I got a P0136 code. IIRC that is more specific to the rear O2 sensor. I reset it, and will see if it reappears. Looked to me like the computer had stored two instances of the...

Thanks. The “box” that read the codes mentioned... o2 sensor banks. I understand O/D and ECT, I had put on ECT several minutes prior in fact but neither was in play when the CEL came on. It drove 85 miles home, just fine.

So I’ve had the new toy two weeks, highway trip today with my 15 year old behind the wheel. He complained that it wasn’t accelerating. I took over and pushed the pedal in, several times to check. Engine power was fine but I got the CEL light. Pulled codes at O’Reillys. I know what they are but...

Yeah I agree about the cover, was concerned the steering wheel might have cosmetic damage? I’ll look around for info/solutions.

Happily a Tacoma owner since 2006, I’ve been looking for a 3rd gen for my son and I (he will be 16 soon). Located a very clean limited with an initially two year lease, then a single owner since 2000. Very excited, it has just over 200,000 which worries me when I started looking BUT no so much...

It does have the rear e-locker.

Greetings, In the market for a 4Runner; this is a third car/for my son. The vehicle in question has 85k (no really), all records, leather, premium sound, very good plus to not quite excellent interior, no rust... I can go on. Timing belt has been done as well. It drove great, red paint is in...

Wish I could have seen the pics. Did you get it?
