    surging forward when at stop

    FWIW my surging because very noticeable right before I discovered that one of the calipers had two stuck pistons. -E

    2005 V8 Overheating.

    It does say that. People tow in OD anyways when the transmission doesn't hunt, but what they are not thinking of is that the additional RPM gained by towing in 4th spins both the water pump and the transmission oil pump faster, effectively moving heat away quicker. -E

    as full as it gets ( gas pump )

    Yes, you don't want to do this on a modern vehicle. Fuel can go down the vent line, like the others are saying. -E

    Difficult to pump gas

    This happens to me unless I put the metal part of the filler nozzle as far in as it would go. It can't hang partway out with the "trigger guard" resting against the truck, the fill nozzle has to go all the way in the truck's filler neck, as far as you can get it, with the whole thing hanging in...

    Is there actually truth to the "buy SUV's in summer, not winter" saying?

    Salesmen always say something like that to make you think whatever vehicle you're looking at has ten million other people clawing at a barbwire gate around the lot, waiting to get in to buy that truck you're looking at. "Someone's on their way here to look at this" is another one. Like...

    Traction Control OFF??

    I know what you mean. I was pulling out of a dirt road, making a left onto a paved road that has a big tilt towards the road I was coming out of. There's a small bridge to my right, visibility is very limited, and cars come fast. I was towing my boat. Everything looked good so I started to...

    So i got rear ended...

    Heh, yeah, does happen. I don't know what it is about the area I live in, but people are always tapping into the back of other people's cars. I've been "hit" (if you can even call it that) 3 times by cars behind me, while both of us were stopped at a red light. I also had an old man drive...

    I leave my hitch in just to maximize damage to the other vehicle if I am rear ended. -E

    The Virus problem on this site is getting out of control

    I found this blog post which may help, it's all I could really find Sneaky vBulletin Script Injections | Sucuri Blog . It's definitely not the exact same issue, because although I was coming from Google right to the 4th gen landing page (was too lazy to type URL, just googled "4runner forums")...

    The Virus problem on this site is getting out of control

    I haven't seen it come back but I don't usually look at the source code, I only noticed it this time because the page was "hanging" while loading and that URL was in firefox's lower left corner. The url looked sketchy so I opened the page source and there it was. -E

    The Virus problem on this site is getting out of control

    The site definitely still has issues. When I just landed on 4th Gen T4Rs - Toyota 4Runner Forum this snippet came in the HTML: ... /** * vBulletin 3.8.7 CSS * Style: 'Child of New Look!'; Style ID: 6 */ <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"...

    What to think - oil pan stripped

    I wonder if it could be tapped out to a larger size plug. -E

    Rodent strikes again!

    This will sound crazy, but if you piss near your tires, the rodents will stay away. -E

    You bumped a three year old thread, there's nothing at that link about a remote starter anymore. -E
