The gray stuff on the plastic below my grill has started to come off. I noticed a spot when washing it and thought it was tar or something but when I washed it the gray came off leaving a darker gray showing in 3 nasty spots. Has anyone else had this happen? Mine is an 03 SR5 and I have always...

Mine has done the exact same thing 3 times. I have not glued it back in just slid it back in there. Only one car was does it. It is a brushless one though. I drove off and didn't notice it hanging down until it made a flapping noise. At least I know I am not the only one!

More I have actually driven right at 400 miles to see if I could. It has always worked well until today. Usually when you drive a little bit it readjusts but today I drove home and it stayed lower than when I put in more gas. Oh, well maybe it will change when I go to work in the morning. At...

I had 336 miles to go on my tank and just topped up. It now reads 289 after I put in $10.00 worth! All the stations here in WV are running out of gas and there is a run. My $10.00 didn't get me much at $3.09 per gallon! Anyone have any idea why the computer acted like this? I usually read about...

Just got rid of my Dunlops Those things were scary in wet weather. I went for the REVOs in the original size. I do not off road but we do deal with snow here in WV. My son has REVO's on his rig and raved about them in the snow. I Took a 1,000 mile trip soon after I got them and had no...

I have posted this several weeks ago and still have the problem so I thought I'd give it one more shot! When the truck has been sitting for several hours and I start it and put it into gear I get a noise somewhat like valve clatter- almost as if it was low on oil. This seems to be worse in the...

How about the 2003 I have a 2003 V8 are my plugs Iridium and how about the tranny? This is sort of news to me as I am not a "gearhead" at all.

All I can say is ... I drove my 03 SR5 with 2 passengers but packed for vacation 400 miles according to the map and 402 according to Mapquest and the mileage meter still had 18 more miles to go. (Yes I had a friend with me carrying a gas can just in case). The computer says 20.8. I did have my...

If you'll hold it, I will man the pressure washer! Seriously, you have to try not to take the oil out of the thing since it is a natural animal skin. (Sorry PETA!) ;):

Thanks I'll give that link a shot. I knew someone out there had an idea.

I got a brand new large chamois for Father's Day and was washing my wife's car. I forgot that she had recently had a new windshield put in and the black rubber strip came off all over my chamois! The black stuff comes off the 4Runner too, but not in this amount. I know throwing it in the washer...

VERY IMPORTANT Be sure to buy the extra insurance! My son totaled a 26 foot U-Haul on I-75 near Atlanta recently while moving. He still doesn't know what caused it - just woke up in the hospital. If he had not bought that insurance not only would his furniture, etc. been a loss BUT he (or his...

Thanks! I be sure they are at 35 PSI!

How much air? I got 265-65-17's (Stock size) No on the spare. I have been driving since 1968 and only had one flat that wasn't in my driveway and that was on my son's Saab when I ran over a piece of angle iron! I put the black side out on my Strat Mica - SR5-03 and they look good. It cost me...

Thanks for your help . . . I went with the Revos. Got a pretty good deal and a place to get them done close to home. Jim
