    Rough idle

    Well I ran a scan and no codes came out. What I ended up doing was I cleaned out the throttle body area, I pulled apart the plastic that connects to it coming from the air filter, I started it up and rmp's jumped from 400 to about 600-700 now and no more rattle. I hope this isnt a temp fix for a...

    Towing question

    Hi all, I will need to tow home a car 400 miles thru the hot dessert to California. I will be towing it on an auto transport, not a 2 wheel dolly. I have 02 4 runner 4x4 Limited. Will this cause any issues to my 4runner or nothing to worry about ? Thanks

    I tried unlocking my doors from my keychain, it would not unlock so I just assumed it was the battery on my keychain, a few hours later I went to go leave and start the car and it was dead. I noticed a clicking sound coming from my engine. I opened my fuse panel thats in the engine, and...

    Shifting when cold

    Hi all, When I start driving, and the 4 Runner gets into second gear, it seems like it stays in second for a while, if I accelerate faster it eventually will shift into third.
