    FS: 5th GEN RAV4 Blind Spot Mirrors, $60, Syracuse, NY

    Used set of RAV4 Blind Spot Mirrors (P/N 87931-42D50 and 87961-42D20).. were installed in my 2020 4Runner, which I removed before I traded it in for my 2023 (which has the blind spot monitors). No damage/scratches, will hit them with some Windex before I ship. New ones looks to be around...

    FS: 5th GEN High Performance LED Fog Lights, $60, Syracuse, NY

    Used set of LED fogs (P/N PT413-42190).. were installed in my 2020 4Runner, which I removed before I traded it in for my 2023 (which already came with the LED fogs). Worked fine when removed, no damage, they have some dead bugs on them in the pic, will clean before I ship. New sets look to be...

    total newbie to towing question

    I tow my 21ft boat with my 5th gen 4runner (which is probably right at the weight limit), but it is normally only a handful of times per season for a few miles (I keep the boat on a lift in the water). When I initially bought the boat, I towed it ~100miles on the highway, which was sketchy as...

    Should I trade 4R ORP for a Rav4 Hybrid ?

    Haha, pic was taken last summer when I was drinking a beer admiring my nice clean cars and a job well done. It is 35 degrees in NY today and everything is still brown so my story holds up.

    ABS, braking power low and drive start control malfunction lights

    Hi all, They ended up replacing a major wire harness in my vehicle to resolve the issue. Whatever it was, they had to pull the back seats out to do it, as I drove around without the seats secured while I waited for the part to come in. I'll check my receipt to see if a part number was called...

    ABS, braking power low and drive start control malfunction lights

    Old post, but I just had this exact issue occur on my 2020 4WD 4Runner Limited with 15000 miles. I have an appointment on Monday to have this looked at. Note that it happened to me after the vehicle sat for a day in cold weather (~10-20 degF). I'll let you all know if it ends up being a...

    What's the word re rust on this generation of 4Runners? ...

    I just this fall traded in my 2010 4Runner for a 2020. I bought the 2010 new, and it lived all 10 years in central New York. I did not have it undercoated or rust-proofed when new. I was at 155,000 miles when I traded it in. Overall, it still was in good shape, but with the 2020 updates I...

    4lo Blinking

    I have been having this issue lately on my 2010 Limited, 120k miles.. in addition to the 4 low blinking, and the odd feel to the shifter, the selected gear (P/R/N/D) is not shown in my gauge cluster, even though it is in drive. If I shift back to Park, it returns again. Odd. I have to cycle...

    How are you 5th Gen brake calipers doing?

    2010 here, 65000 miles. I have already had a seized driver side caliper. When I was at the dealer, the service manager told me a 4Runner was in earlier with both seized. Calipers are $450 each, and I got toyotacare to cover it. I Am in upstate ny, so it may just be the weather and salt. Jim

    2014 SR5 Factory Rails Cargo Box Suggestions

    I looked into this last summer for my 2010 limited with the factory bars. I ended up with a Thule pulse 614, which was short enough to fit without hitting the shark fin. It is a pretty basic box, but met my needs for family vacations. The clamps don't hit the roof, but when the box is loaded...
