    How often do you wash and wax your 4runner

    I wash my 4 Runner and the wife's Camry each week. I try to wax each a couple times in the spring and a couple times in the fall. So far this year I've waxed each 3 times. I do this to get a good coat on for the summer because no one wants to be doing it when it's so darn hot. DJJ

    Tire pressure: 32psi or 44psi??? HELP!!

    Wow...so many different answers. The specs are on the door jam and owners manual for a reason. I run 32 psi. I check them each week and adjust accordingly. The 44 psi on the tire is what never to exceed per the tire, not the vehicle. My tires are wearing perfectly.

    Going in for Paintless Dent Repair...

    I had a 2000 Tundra a fews years back and got caught in a nasty hail storm. The roof and hood were damaged pretty good. PDR fixed it up and it looked perfect again afterward. They also didn't have to remove the headliner to do the roof. They actually used hot glue and some super strong suction...

    White paint on 06 already rubbing off???? HELP

    I had a white tundra and a red solara. Any time I waxed those, the color would rub off some on the pad. Bothered me too. I believe I read somewhere that these colors do not have a separate clear coat whereas your metallic colors do. Maybe you just have some oxidation and a light polish then wax...

    Side Mirror Vibration?

    Same exact problem here as KP Texan. I looked closely and do not see any screws. Something has to be loose somewhere. Anybody with any other ideas ? DJJ

    4th Gen 4Runner Floor Mat Recall

    On my wifes 2010 Camry they cut off and rounded the bottom of the gas pedal to allow more room between that and the floor. I have a feeling they'll want to do the same with the 4 Runner. They won't be touching mine. It's a shame that the driver is no longer responsible for what they do. Gotta...

    Did you buy the extended warranty when you bought your used 4R?

    I have an '07 v6 bought certified used in May 2008. Oh yea, glad I did too. Around 45K my mileage/ temp cluster light went out. Instead of just replacing the bulb, it was replaced and covered under the Toyota Extra Care. Part cost = $1,100. Then today I took her in with 57K to have the power...

    Venting after a horrendous wheel install experience

    It's sad but most people don't take pride in their work anymore. A few weeks ago I brought my truck into a local Toyota dealer to have a headlight replaced. They had to remove the front bumper to get to some bolts underneath and also needed to remove the black plastic cowl that covers the...

    Brake squeal in reverse only.....so far

    Mine will squeal only after I wash the truck and at that they only squeal for a few minutes. I always drive the truck around the block and back it up a few feet to dry the brakes after a wash it and all is good !

    factory hitch - easy bolt on?

    I believe this is a simple bolt on procedure with no drilling required. I had the dealer do mine because I didn't have the time myself but would have otherwise. Also, I was only given one option, the heavier duty hitch that came on the V8's. I have the V6.:thumb3:

    Very loose/light steering?

    Their not stupid questions... As far as I know the power steering fluid should be between cold min and cold max when the vehicle has been sitting, like over night. Should not exceed hot max after immediate use. Now, you should have either the red tranny fluid in the reservoir or the clear power...
