    Best quality leather seat covers for 2003-2009 4Runner

    Got mine on Ebay from these guys: upholsteryguys on eBay Only bought the drivers seat portion but it is excellent work and a perfect match for the stone leather.

    2003 Ongoing A/C issue.....

    Seems there have been more than a few issues with the 2003 or 2004 A/C's where the A/C's tend to warm then cold. Basically, when my A/C cycles because it has gotten to cold in the evaporator, it takes tooooo long to come back on. I've replaced the condenser, evaporator, expansion valve, and...

    04 Sport Edition Fuel pump issues

    Lost a fuel pump in my 07 V6. The warning I had was the fuel gauge quit working. A couple of weeks later, I was on the side of the road. Haven't heard of an intermittent fuel pump failure. Good news if you do have to do the fuel pump, there is a hole in the floor under the drivers side back seat...

    Another AC Problem

    Replaced condenser today. Denso part from Amazon. $70 to my door. Moved to desperation at this point. It acts like a restriction but the gauges tell another story of perfection. Vacuumed it down for an hour after install. Dumped 22 oz in which is 1.37. Max is 1.41 lbs. System is still cycling...

    Another AC Problem

    Well, Problem still exists. While the last tech believed it was electrical, the evap is still getting to cold like there is a restriction in the line not allowing enough freon into the evaporator. Nothing else it can be.

    Another AC Problem

    Screw driver points to the carrier. The connection top pops out. The placement seems to be very important. I had mine rotated 90 degre clockwise and nearly froze my evap coil. My tab broke when I removed it but the carrier is still intact. I'd like to see the how the carrier is placed into the...

    Another AC Problem

    Well I think I've figured it out. Replaced the amplifier and still not help. Went back to thermistor in the side of the evaporator box. Drop the glove box and bottom piece under the glove box and you'll see the carrier with a blue wire wedged in there. The blue cover has two wires in it and has...

    Another AC Problem

    AC amplifier? Is it part of the control panel? If it is a reasonable fix, I'll throw a few bucks at it. The AC guy says the temp controller works properly. Auto seems to work fine. The temp fluctuates because the compressor is off too long but it recognizes ambient temps and if the AC is...

    Another AC Problem

    Well AC guy went through it electrically, checked ohms on compressor. Pressure is good. Everything behaves properly, the AC when it cycles simply takes to long to come back on. I felt bad since he spent some time on it and wouldn't charge me. However, he acknowledged there was something going on...

    Another AC Problem

    This guy is convinced it's electrical. No tremble on gauges, pressures are where they should be, AC cycles off when it should. But he sees what I've been after where the compressor doesn't come back on soon enough to keep the air temp stable. I will definitely report back. Hopefully he...

    Interest in hump backed spoiler for 03-09 4runner?

    I see guys say this helps keep the back window clean. I could use more down force too. Does it keep the heat and exhaust from coming in while you're driving with rear window down? My 07 had a flat one and it didn't do anything other than look cool.

    Another AC Problem

    I'm not offended at all. The box streams almost a continuous stream when running fresh air. I'm down in Georgia so its a little swampy and plenty of condensation on AC line as well. Just got back from a AC "specialist". He say he can't find a problem but thinks it is electrical and asked for...

    Another AC Problem

    Zoni, You and I seem to have a similar problem. I too can smell the moisture when it warms up. This is because the compressor stays off too long. The only think I understand is that the thermistor when it gets to 32 degrees, opens and shuts off the compressor. Once it warms above this, the...

    Another AC Problem

    I have checked the vent temps. We fed a line down almost into the core and it would get to about 44 and the AC would cycle. The temp would generally come up about 20 degrees before the compressor would cycle back on. I have never noticed the change in blower volume or amount of air flow. It...
