    5th gen interest: Opinion on after market navigation

    Yeah, you would think the premium trim would come with Nav... but there are a lot that don't have it. That's an even better answer if you can indeed install the real OEM unit into one without it. I thought it wouldn't be possible because nav setups used to have the GPS disc installed elsewhere...

    5th gen interest: Opinion on after market navigation

    Hi, long time 4th gen owner, and it was recently totaled thanks to another driver. I am looking at a 5th gen 2010 4runner limited, but it doesn't have navigation and I'm thinking it could be a deal breaker. However, I have them at a great price. I know someone is just going to tell me to look...

    VSC/ Traction control probs beyond the zero-calibration solution. 2004 4runner

    Thanks. Yeah I'm not about to pay over $500 to fix something that doesn't need to be fixed. This shop's specialty is Toyota, I just expected them to figure it out. All they did was drive it around and guess. I'm going to take it back tomorrow, drive with the errors, and then find a new shop if...

    VSC/ Traction control probs beyond the zero-calibration solution. 2004 4runner

    Hi, I would really appreciate if someone has had a similar experience and could help me figure out what's going on. I have had no work done to my car. A few weeks ago I suddenly would get the beeping swirvy tire alert on my dashboard... then eventually the two traction control lights would come...

    VSC TRAC light on, traction control issues? Skips in acceleration

    Thanks a lot... I just looked at the first page and an almost identical post was up. Sorry for not checking it out first, could have saved my breath! I also had to replace my battery a couple months ago as well... so hopefully this is what I need. Thanks.

    VSC TRAC light on, traction control issues? Skips in acceleration

    Hi- I would appreciate any advice or info if anyone has had similar issues with their traction control. I have a 2004 V8 4runner. I will start by saying, in my two years with the car, I haven't had one single issue with the car. Zero. I know what traction control does and when it kicks on...

    Painting grey centers of bumpers? (03-04)

    Wow, this plasti-dip is amazing. It's much more forgiving than spray paint. It looks like a professional job. Very happy with the results. This is exactly what I've wanted for the last two years. Thanks for the recommendation. A little painters tape and half a can did the trick: $10. It's...

    Painting grey centers of bumpers? (03-04)

    Thank you guys. I think I'll start with this nice and cheap option and give plasti-dip a try. Ark's looks good keeping the rails/boards silver as well... thanks.

    Painting grey centers of bumpers? (03-04)

    Hi, I wanted to know if anyone has painted the center areas of their 03-04 bumpers to match the rest of the car? I am personally not a fan of the mismatch... it surprises me some companies still do it. I noticed all the new Z71 Tahoes do the same thing... I think it takes away from the clean...

    Help, need to replace screw/wheel thing in back wall of cargo area. What's it called?

    I am attaching a picture of the attachment I am looking for. There is one on the left and right wall of the cargo area. The one on my right wall is missing and I'm looking into getting a replacement on eBay or something. I can't find them anywhere and in all my research I've never seen one or...

    replacing glove box latch?

    I just wanted to say thanks as well! I took out my glove box to replace the cabin filter... I didn't have the glove box lined up exactly so I forced it... and sure enough broke the latch. I'm noticing a lot of brokers selling on ebay just listing all OEM parts and they just order from these...

    Options for replacing stock JBL subwoofer in 2004 Limited

    I appreciate the responses. Jdkilroy, that would be awesome. I'll shoot you a private message to discuss. I know the sound isn't an upgrade, but after having vehicles where I tried a lot of after market stuff, I'm ready to keep things simple! I hate having to deal with running wires and...

    Options for replacing stock JBL subwoofer in 2004 Limited

    Hi, I recently bought a 2004 Limited... I couldn't be happier. I'm a first time Toyota driver, and I am beyond impressed. Tightest and smoothest ride I've ever been in, even more so than my previous Infiniti. I'm now loyal to the Toyota brand! I need some advice*** I have the JBL sound system...
