Hey Mark I believe the culprit for my code was due to a poor crimp on one of the connections. When I was inspecting everything, one of the wires, I believe it was the 12v positive, was broken and causing intermittent power to the relay. I've rewired the connections with a proper solder and...

I would also look into filing for diminished value against the other driver's insurance policy

Thanks for your reply. I was able to look at a freeze frame at the time the code was thrown, and the Coolant temperature was 52, and the IAT was 54, which were both very close to the actual temperatures outside at the time, so I believe they are both reporting accurate temperatures, unless the...

Second time in my '08 that I've gotten the P011B error code using Slyfox's bypass kit. Has anyone else run into a similar issue? It's easy to reset, but it's frustrating that it disables VSC and TCS.

Thanks for your reply. It was my understanding that the bypass kit tricks the ECU into thinking the temperature is higher than it actually is, to prevent the air pump from actually running. I think the computer was unhappy of the difference between the IAT's and the coolant temps. I have...

I've had the slyfox kit installed in my '08 now for over a year, and out of the blue now I'm getting a P011B error code, which of course makes the dash light up with traction and VSC lights. I believe it's throwing the error, due to the difference between the IAT and the coolant temperature...

That looks pretty slick! Any chance you have a parts list or more pictures?

Does anyone have a picture of a confirmed genuine Toyota/Lexus TPMS sensor and the box it came in? I've been tracking down a very random TPMS sensor issue in my 4th Gen where sometimes the light is solid, usually it flashes for a bit and then goes solid, and sometimes when it's cold, it's off...

I know this is posted in the 3rd Gen section, but as a heads up, the 4th Gens have the hose barb pointing straight down, and not at a 90 degree angle. So while they will fit, they really aren't plug and play as it puts a nice kink in both the hoses. Will have to continue searching for a...

Tow straps are typically not dynamic, and snatch straps are. Dynamic meaning they can stretch some, to limit the shock to both vehicles and give a rubber band type effect to the recovery.

It looks like a lot of the aftermarket engine skids, while offering more protection than the stock piece, reduce ground clearance, especially models with KDSS. The lower bars sit well in front of the front wheels, which make the skid plate the first thing to hit lot of obstacles. Anyone have...

Possibly interested in one set depending on the shipped price. Thank you!

Pick up your favorite polish and a microfiber, and go to town. Most of the scratches will be light enough, that you can do it by hand. After it's fixed, you can get some 3M or clearbra pieces for behind the handles, so it doesn't happen anymore.

Looks good! Wonder how long it will hold up for. I'm tempted to dip or wrap some of the interior pieces as well

Free bump for you. Do you have all the mounting hardware as well?
