    lets see your interior mods

    I recently added some bungee straps in the cargo area so that stuff on the wheel wells was better secured... - Remove the plastic bolt covers - Use some fairly small nylon rope to create a loop at the top bolt. - Cut a flat bungee into two halves, using one half for each side. Burn the frayed...

    Ac delay after starting.

    I get this occasionally on my SR5P if I've shut off the truck with the fan speed dial "in between" two of the notches on the dial. When it starts up and there's no fan, all it takes is a very small push in either direction to find a notch. Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk

    Softex heated seats for softex ventilated seats?

    Possibly common knowledge, but... In a previous Highlander I drove, you had to set the AC to blow some cold air in the foot-wells for the ventilators to pull cool air and work properly. If you have the AC set to the upper vents only, they just blow warm air through the seat. Maybe that'll...

    Strong knocking at low-RPM

    Ok, very good info Koz, thanks for the pics and explanation. I don't suspect that to be the problem here - I guess. Not that it's impossible, but I think other issues are more likely. I'll do some more research on it though. I've never used seafoam, which seems to be popular around here -...

    Strong knocking at low-RPM

    Ok, so how does one determine if this is an issue? And how would you clean that, anyway? Manually?

    Strong knocking at low-RPM

    I'm gonna need you to elaborate on that one please... Is this somewhat common? Where exactly does it build up? On the piston head? My previous plugs were perfectly clean, so that's a good sign (I guess). ============================ So, for a moment, forget that I said it might be...

    Strong knocking at low-RPM

    Why do you say I'm running a "lower" octane? Isn't 87 the standard rating for "normal" grade gas? So, 87, 89, 91 for low, mid, premium - right? Either way, I'll definitely be raising the octane next fill up as a test. Yes, air filter is clean. It's a K&N actually. I'm in Alabama, so...

    Strong knocking at low-RPM

    Hello all. New here... Hoping for a little assistance on this one. I have a 2006 4Runner V6 2WD AT. The truck runs great overall. Power is good, starts and runs clean, just this one problem. When the truck has been at operating temp for a while... Climbing a hill using light throttle, at...
