YMMV... as they say You just about described my driving useage to a "T". Daily driver - on road 90% of the time. Only off road it sees is unimproved stone road to our cabin. I put Bilstein 5100's at all 4 corners with OME 884 front springs, front shock clips at the lowest ring and I used the...

Update.... Don't mean to bring back my old topic, but I thought you may like an update on what tool I ended up with and it's track record so far. I picked Autel as I liked the single tool for the job versus a reader and a programmer set up. I checked with the shop that does my state inspections...

Thanks much, I really appreciate the info. I did contact Autel customer service to see if they could advise on vehicle coverage, I was told to contact a re-seller of their product for that info. I was not impressed with that reply, but did try two re-sellers from Amazon, with no reply from...

jonb2, Thanks for the reply. I appreciate the info. Did you happen to try it on a Toyota yet? Could you advise if it lists the Toyota year & models it will work with? E.

With the increasing number of vehicles equipped with TPMS at our house, I'm looking to buy TPMS tools. Our Nissan Altima has the TPMS light on with the summer rims/tires and my daughter's GM says one sensor is dead. The only vehicle not having issues is my 4Runner! I'd like a "do-all" tool...

Has anyone bought the TPMS tools required to trigger, read and connect to OBD II port? I now have a Nissan in addition to our 4Runner with winter rims/tires that require identifying and connecting the sensors each seasonal swap. I've looked at Bartec and Ateq, both have some nice tools for fair...

Skippy, I have confirmed that your 2016 TE boards will not fit our 2012 SR5 due to a rocker "skirt" we have that your TE does not. Thanks for the offer. E.

Skippi, Haven't heard back yet from Hoe runner on year & model to confirm fit. I appreciate your offer. Will TE running boards fit our SR5? E.

Nerve of some people's kids... like mine Added two 12v power ports in the trim panel to the left & right of the rear seat back (for each of my Daughters) Heaven forbid they had to share a power port and wait for the other's phone to charge first. Wired them on a fused line to be hot all the...

Thanks, Waiting a few weeks is not a problem. We'd just would like to get them on before winter. Pm me your year & model so I can check the fit (pics too?) E.

Jasalvas, Yes the front settled out perfectly. I've checked it a few times since and no further settling. Thanks E.

Looking for a set of O.E. running boards for our 2012 SR5. We are near Buffalo N.Y. and would consider reasonable shipping costs if you are willing to ship. Thanks E.

Would these fit a '12 SR5?

jkchu, Thanks for the post. I wondered the same as I am in my first 4Runner. It does "rattle" a bit. I thought the specified 0w20 oil was perhaps to thin. I was tossing the idea of visiting the dealer some 60 miles away just to have it checked. You likely just saved me the $$. E.

Rear liftgate window... I have a question, Will the rear liftgate window not function if the rear wiper motor is not in place? The wiper arm got bent by previous owner so I removed the motor assembly due to the arm being seized onto it. Easier to work on removing the arm with the motor on the...
