    Brake rotors warp easily....

    I would quickly learn how to do this yourself and use premium parts. I use the 60 rotor vs the 25 one. Or buy the premium parts yourself and have your mechanic install them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    4th gen has ceramic pads in front and semi-metallic in rear?

    TPMS light on, all tires >42 psi

    Same thing happened to me on my 05. About 6 years ago the light came on and it was my spare. About 2 years ago it happened again but this time it was the actual sensor in the valve. I just let it go as the sensors were around 150 each. One important note; all of my tires had a slow leak so I put...

    HELP!. Wheels wont spin. Cant get out of garage. Frozen calipers?

    When my front calipers froze up it locked up pretty strong. I was already driving and I managed to drive 5 more minutes home. I got 110k miles on my first set and 55 on the aftermarket. I use the best pads available.

    Highest Mileage 4th Gen?

    Definitely change the oil regularly and flush the antifreeze. At your mileage it should be every 50k for the antifreeze.

    2004 4Runner still on OEM Panasonic battery

    I just changed my OEM battery after 8 years of use. I changed only because of a deployment. Kinda risky but I probably could have gotten another year or so.

    Frozen Calipers - How many others had this problem?

    I used fenco from advance auto. I did the job myself and replaced the pins after I cut them off. I greased the new pins real good and have had no issue so far over the last 6 months since I installed them. My front original calipers lasted to about 110k. When I changed the front pads at 62k I...
