    Problem with Softex seat cover

    Yea, my appointment is next Saturday. I am hoping they can fix it. If not, there will be an open warranty case on it, and will push it along/escalate. Did the same with my wife's Infiniti FX. Got all the issue resolved right before the warranty ran out. Got one year left on the 4Runner. In...

    Problem with Softex seat cover

    After 2 years of having my 2015 SR5, this is the only issue that I have experienced. Bringing in for service, will see about getting the 60% rear seat fixed. The other issue is the infotainment locked up 3 times. The fix is to hold in the power button/volume knob....that seems to reset it, then...

    Porsche Cayenne S

    These are really nice, just not cheap to own. Have owned 2 European cars and not again. (Audi and Mini) My concern was when the warranty ends. For me it's either Nissan, Infiniti, Toyota or Lexus. But the Cayennes look nice. One of my favorite SUVs on the road. Congrats on the Porsche.

    How to use a usb hard drive for music

    Thanks for the info on this. I will definitely have to use the utility and format a smaller drive and copy over my 150GB music. I have been using my Plex server for my audio needs. I have unlimited data on my phone, it works.....but this just makes more sense.

    Looking for new SR5 without a sunroof

    most of the models that I found in the South Bay are SR5 non premium as well. Then again, I simply wanted 4x4. TE models seemed rare as well out here.

    Dealer Options?

    A year and a half into my 4Runner and not one single issue. 2x Tacomas and an FJ Cruiser later, no extended warranties.

    PC Mag says Entune is "best"

    I do not mind it. It is much better than the infotainment system that is in my Infiniti. That is a kludgy mess. Apple CarPlay looks nice.

    Just purchased a 16 SR5 Premium with the Xp package

    Nice looking 4Runner, like the xp package. For the roof rack. I like the look of the oem rails. If you want to hold more weight, then I would go with Yakima. I have used Yakima cross bars to hold 2 Kayaks and mountain bikes. The heavier duty cross bars work better for roof baskets if you hold...

    Just Rode in a Wrangler Unlimited again...

    I miss my old jeep. Used to ride around with the half doors off, and the rear window open. It only had a 4cyl, and stick but was a lot of fun. Had it for 3 years and no maintenance issues.

    TRD rims on SR5

    Quick question. Do the TRD rims that are on the TRD Pro fit on a 2015 SR5? I would like to swap out the rims, and re-use my tires since they only have 10k miles. The upgrade the tires when I am in need for a replacement. Thanks,

    16 Tacoma better than 4runner..

    I looked at the new Tacoma as well, when I brought in my 4Runner for its servicing. Very glad that I chose the 4Runner. As for reliability, it is over a year now, and not one single issue. Much better than Infinti. I find that I like secured rear storage as apprised to an open bed. When I...

    Test drove 16 TE...seems sluggish

    To be honest the 4Runner seems adequate to me. I also have a 2015 Infiniti Q60 Convertible and a 2012 FX35. Both are much quicker. The only add on that I did with the 4Runner is add a drop-in KN air filter. I went nuts when I had my 2008 Mustang GT. Tuner, exhaust, etc. The 4Runner is more...

    Etune locked up

    Yea, thinking it was just app updates. When I ran the Etune updates. The issue was with the volume knob. It got stuck at a certain level. I turned the car off then on and the issue went away. It has only happened 1x, so it may be a one-off. I was adjusting the treble and base and listed to a...
