I have a 2000 t4r with 108,000 miles, and I've been reading posts about the "pink milkshake." My question is, is there an average mileage it usually happens at, or is it more random? I don't know if my radiator was ever replaced, but it appears to be in excellent shape, no corrosion, basically...

I would look into having it fixed, as it will probably be leaking soon if its not already (it may be leaking without you even knowing it yet) I would think any auto glass place should be able to fix it, probably have to replace the seal.

heres my .02: Im not an expert, but I do work for a company that delivers oil. I only use whats recommended, if the book says 5w30, use 5w30. It wouldnt hurt to use 10w30 in the summer but there's no real advantage either. 5w20 or 0w20 should not be used in vehicles that recommend 5w30 because...

after doing a little more reading, i think i am going to try replacing the front diff sensor (part # 84222-35070) although with yours being an 01 i believe i read it should have 2 sensors with different part #'s. Check this out: 4WD won't disengage on 99 4Runner LTD - YotaTech Forums also try...

I have a '00, and from what i've seen on here and the toyota mechanic i've talked to, basically the shift fork inside the shift module sticks. It doesn't feel like its engaged when you're turning because its not, rather its stuck in between 2wd and 4wd. Make sure you don't drive over 60mph while...

I have a 2000 limited. If you push the button, only the 4 green lights should come on (all the lights may flash first) then the orange light should stay on only after moving the shifter back to H4L. according to the owners manual you have to press the button first, then if you need more...

I saw an ad for a Gforce performance chip that improves gas mileage, horsepower etc, for $69. Anybody using a performance chip? does it do what its supposed to do? just wondering if its worth the $

Ok, got a spare key made. I deliver oil for a living and happened to be at a Toyota dealer yesterday. The guys in the parts dept hooked me up with a key at their cost ($34) and one of the mechanics offered to program it for me for free.

I just bought my first 4runner last week. went down the street to a dealer to look at a jeep grand cherokee that I saw on their website. ended up not liking it all that much and looked around at what else they had. Ended up getting a 2000 4runner limited, v6 4x4 with just over 105,000 miles for...

the key for the door/engine. tried home depot, they said they couldnt make one since it has the chip in it. I did get a regular spare that will open only the doors but im looking to get a spare ignition key.

Hi, im new to this site and just recently bought a 2000 4runner limited at a dealer. I have the owners manual but not the maintenance schedule booklet or the owners manual supplement booklet. Any ideas where to get these? Also it only came with one key. The book says only the dealer can make a...
