    PSA for those in cold climates: Aux heater usage

    Got a OBDLink MX+ for Christmas so I can see all the PIDS that Tech stream can see. (I can see TPMS finally!) With my 2014 Limited, those conditions aren't all true. It'll run the PTCs at idle rpm. With dual climate you just need the damper on full hot. The temp dial can be whatever until the...

    I can't get the part in the US. What's the Canadian PN?

    5th gen Block Heaters

    I emailed my local dealer. They say there is no block heater available.

    5th gen Block Heaters

    It appears PU140-00905 is NLA and has been recalled in Canada. What's the current PN for a block heater?

    How is your Toyota original paint?

    My 2014 Nautical Blue has the clear on the roof flaking like crazy. Just started on the hood a few weeks ago. The horizontal portion of the doors by the windows is starting to flake too. Pretty disappointing for a 9 year old vehicle.

    5th Gen Extended PIDs for Torque App

    OBDLink? I took a quick look. It appears they use the same structure as Torque. I know Scangauge uses a wonky structure that has to be translated to use in Torque. There appears to be a way to import a list of PIDs into OBDLink. Would make it easy as long as the source file was configured properly.

    2021 4Runner OEM LED Headlights/Lights Performance and Retrofit

    I think your issue is specific to the 4Runner, not Toyota. We've had a Prius v and Highlander with LED headlights. No dead spot.

    Portable 12v water heater

    300 Watts will heat up 2 gallons from 60-120 in an hour with no thermal losses. What are you going to use it for?

    Internet shopping. How to tell if a 4Runner has KDSS without looking underneath?

    :shrug: I've put in a shit-ton of Highlander VINs while looking at new ones this week. Invaluable resource given the Dealer Inventory on the Toyota website is the hottest of hot garbage. Autotrader/Cars.com will get you inventory and the VIN website will get you options. The VIN site will miss...

    L4l, H4l, H4f - H4f ??

    Freedom. Freedom for the front wheels and rear wheels to do as they please independent of each other. 'Cause this is America!!

    *** SOLVED***!!!Filled up to the "click" drove 80ft and it died. No Spark!

    Most modern fuel systems are returnless and use a PWM pump to supply pressure. Instead of pumping 100% all the time and returning the excess fuel, the pump only pumps as hard as it has to. Modern pumps don't run as hard as they used to. Empty tanks causing bad pumps is a bit of an old wives tale...

    Garmin Overlander

    The Oregon/inReach are not in the same class and not comparable to the Overlander. The Oregon is a 3", 240x400 pixel screen. Tiny compared to the 7" of the Overlander, which has >5 times the screen area of the Oregon 3 (4 in^2 vs 21 in^2). Oregon can give you turn-by-turn. But it doesn't...

    Garmin Overlander

    $700. Holy sheeeetz. It looks like a ruggedized version of their RV 780 (which is $400). However, it's only IP5X - Dust Protected. No Water Protection. I think you can get all the mapping capabilities from the RV780. The Overlander adds in some dust/shock protection, inReach compatibility...

    Any good sun screens for the windshield?

    I vote for Covercraft. I've got one for our 4Runner. I've got a Heatshield for our Pruis v. HS covers the edges a little better, but the CC is much easier to put up and take down.
