    Anyone Experience This?

    Nowhere near his mileage? You are just a week or two of normal driving away from him.

    Extended Warranty

    Is the extended warranty bumper to the bumper? Is everything covered? Say a cowl clip breaks when the vehicle is 9 years old due to oxidation, would that be covered?

    Rotten Egg Smell from Exhaust

    I don't have this odor in my 2011 4R but a previous 2004 accord V6 I ownded had a rotten egg smell from the exhaust and Honda considered this a sign of cat converter failure and replaced it under warranty. Honda has released several TSB's regarding the rotten egg smell coming from the converter.

    Does your 4Runner lean on the Driver Side

    I've got the lean and spoke to the dealer about it shortly after I purchased the 4runner. I'm leaning ~0.5" and I think Toyota considers a +/- 0.75" gap acceptable for production standards so there is nothing they will do for us. My lean is drivers side and is most visible in the front.

    lumbar support 'crunching'

    Sorry for the delay, it's been a busy weekend and a busy night. I've got a picture attached and it does state "new design seat back" just as the service department said. I don't have any other part numbers to compare to. <a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img...

    lumbar support 'crunching'

    New Seat back Picked my car up yesterday from Alton Toyota and they replaced my seat back and fender flare. They told me that my seat back is the corrected back from Toyota, a different part number all together. The lumbar crunch is gone and I will post pics of the service ticket before the...

    lumbar support 'crunching'

    Just left my dealer. They're calling Toyota on Monday. Ill keep everybody informed. FYI, there is no need for a test drive. This just frustrates the dealer and wastes time. The issue can be duplicated sitting still. Also if u have some1 put their hand on the seat back (aka the dealer) it...

    Horrible Gas Mileage

    "Also ask if they are running winter blended fuel or summer blended fuel , depending on where you live. I can instantly tell when they switch fuel blends. WINTER blend will drop my mpg and performance by up to 2 mpg" All are running winter blend, regardless of what they tell you. Not up to...

    Horrible Gas Mileage

    We let ours warm up before driving for ~10 minutes. After that the truck is babied and lately we CAN NOT squeeze better than 14.4 MPG out of her. This is a true calculation by dividing the number of miles on the tripometer by the number of gallons to fill the tank (until it is visibly full...

    2010 4 Wheel Drive Problem with Sharp Low Speed Turns

    You're making everybody think that you're a dummy. I'm sure you have more common sense that you are leading us to believe. It's really isn't difficult to drive 10 miles using 4wd. a) bang it out on the freeway b) just don't lock the wheel. Keep the 4runner thing in 4wd all year if you'd...

    Toyota Quality?

    I was confused. In the future, I'll get my facts straight before I post garbage.

    Toyota Quality?

    I didn't notice it at all until this evening, right after I read this thread and checked for the first time. Truck is just a few weeks old with 500 miles on it. After reading the thread, I walked out to the garage, and sure enough... I think the cold weather caused it. There is the...
