    "Electrical" hum after engine turned off?

    I've searched the 5th gen forum and can't locate anything on this. My 2016 Runner (all stock,) will, on occasion, after shut down, emit a low "humming" sound - it almost sounds like a small electrical motor. And, it continues long after the engine's been turned off. I'm a bit hard of hearing...

    Solution for Console Handgun Mount

    Agreed. I've used the "betwixt the seat and console" approach for a long time when I'm in the vehicle. For those with concerns about holstering, I find a "Sneaky Pete" holster works great for my wheel gun... which by definition if fully loaded has "one in the chamber." I'll not get into the...

    Central OH 4Runners

    Hiking Trails - Ohio Agree with the comment about NWO. Flat. Just plain flat. Many of the state parks in SE Ohio - and Southern Ohio have reasonable trail systems, it just takes a bit of sleuthing to find the. The BT in Southern Ohio has some stretches that are honestly pretty challenging...

    Anyone regret going yellow on fogs?

    Yellow Would never go back. Yellow works much better for me on those rainy, wet road nights by far.

    Oil Change 5th Gen: How To- LOTS of PICS!

    Thanks! First, Thanks Antman and all who've added insights. Did my first change in my '16SR5 this week. In fact, first change I've done on my own in something like 30 years (did my own 'til I hit the mid-30s, then got lazy). This thread convinced me I needed to do my own on the 4R if only...

    Maintenance light reset... WTF am I doing wrong?

    tr4.org to the resuce once again Always helpful to learn I'm not the only dull knife. 10 minutes of trying to reset.... Pushing the darned DISP button. Jesh. Agreed - the manual isn't exceptionally clear on this. Thanks!

    jacking points

    Chart source? Thanks for the chart. I cannot find this anywhere in the owner's manual and my 2016 did not come with a maintenance supplement mentioned in so many posts in this forum. Would you mind sharing where you found this info...? I'm hoping to find much of the maintenance info that...

    5th Gen 4Runner Oil Change Video

    Thanks! Much appreciated (and timely) for my first personal attempt. Been years n years since I've done my own oil change but have read enough to realize I shouldn't trust others. Well done.

    Dealer Shenanigans, need advice

    Fool me once... shame on you... Never pays, IMO to do business with an organization you already know you cannot trust. BOOM. For me, they're permanently off the "will do business with" list. (fool me twice, shame on me).

    How to install roof rack crossbars

    Great thread - THANKS 25 minutes, was a bit concerned about the risk of breaking the rear caps and had my doubts about the paint can opener. Cold in Ohio today so used a hair dryer to warm the plastic caps just a bit. Tried a putty knife and switched to the paint can opener after quickly...
