Mine is when I accelerate or decelerating

Can anyone help with a link or write up or replacing pinion bearing? I’m getting a humming noise when I accelerate and decelerate after replacing wheel bearings. I had a shop check and they confirmed the noise is from the differential but said to determine what part it is would be $1,400 in...

How hard is the timing belt? I’m fairly inclined mechanically. I’ve done the upper and lower balls joints, inner and outer tie rods, replaced belts (on a different car) and generally do my own work. I’ve never tackled a timing belt and it is a bit intimidating. I’m really worried about ****ing...

I really don’t like the interiors anymore. My 01 4Runner with CarPlay is perfect. I get the services I want but not the insane junk and build with these ones. It just becomes too much, IMO. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have given up on working the system and taken to Firestone since the installed and warranty it. I hope that fixed the idle and will continue to troubleshoot from there if it doesn’t. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m sorry to be a pain or make this hard. It is something I haven’t worked on before and have limited knowledge. It is a pink color, Maybe fuchsia describes it best. Not light but not dark pink. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Fluid smells fine, looks a little dark but doesn’t smell burnt at all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No smoke at all. Oil is clean and looks good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Engine oil is clean, transmission fluid is clean. No smoke. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It is from a shit job of being installed. The clamp is too big and loose. Replacing it tonight. I assumed Firestone installed it correctly but clearly they didn’t and don’t feel comfortable with them doing it again. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Please help. My truck has been idling real rough. I started working on different issues but noticed the coolant reservoir was empty. I put coolant in and it ran better. Next day it was empty again (not sure how low it was, there wasn’t a puddle under the truck) and it was again running poorly...

Get the truck in the air, remove at least the back half of the skid plate, with that off you’ll have easy access to look at the rack. I had movement from my rack and replaced the bushings with Poly and it’s great. The bushing in mine were so bad the rack would move left and right, we could...

Got front tires and an alignment. Over the past two weekends I replaced the upper/lower ball joints, inner/outer tie rods and rack and pinion bushings (blown out, the rack would move side to side). The loose bushings and bad ball joints caused a lot of wear on the tires. Got a new battery too...
