    Sunroof and drainage question

    I noticed something today when washing the 4Runner. There were some drops of water something through the rear of the sunroof around the seal. None was coming in the car or on the headliner that I could see. Then I noticed drainage holes in the front corners of the sunroof, so I am wordering...

    hail damage, head liner removal

    Got hit with hail damage last week. The shop is saying $3800 for the fix. They plan on replacing the hood. To fix the roof, they are planning on removing head liner and using PDR method. This makes me nervous. Having rattles or squeaks would be worse than having the dents to me. Has anyone...

    Scan Guage II transmission temp readout

    I have a 2005 V8. My question is if SCII will display transmission temp. I have read many threads, but there does not appear to be anything definitive. Thanks.

    removing cargo shelf

    The gap will be in the carpet You will see the metal floor. I do not remember seeing a vertial gap. There is a vertical area that is part of the shelf, but that part comes out with the shelf. I am not sure if the liners cover or not, but I have removed my shelf before. Good luck.

    Differential question

    Thanks for the help. Follow-up question. Does anyone have a picture of the front differential that shows the check and fill spots? I am sure it is under my skid plate, but I would like to see what I am in for before I pull the plate. Thanks.

    Differential question

    2005 SR5 V8 4WD. I hear folks talking about three differentials, which is confusing me. There is obviously one in the rear. What other two are there? The one where the transaxle is could also be considered one I guess. Even the Chilton manual refers to two, not three. Is there one that...

    Sunroof question

    I have a 2005 SR5 V8. Noticed today going down the interstate at 70 with the sunroof open, every now and then I could hear sound as if it was adjusting or something. I have never noticed this before and use it fairly often, although 99% of the time I am running around town at 45, not 70.. It...

    Towing a boat help- 06 V8 SR5

    Might try flipping your receiver hitch That may help a little before you buy a new receiver hitch. You will also have to flip the ball, but this will give you almost 2" of rise. I have a bassboat, but it has dual axles, so I do not have the swag.
