I wenty to my dealer for an oil change because I had a coupon for my 4 runner. I also needed and inspection. My rig is a 2019 with 45K miles and is in great shape. So the come back after the inspection and tell me I need new windshield wipers or they will fail my inspection. The wipers were...

I just recently started using my AC this year and a new problem has developed. I get water pooling on the drivers side front mat. Any ideas on how to address? I have never had this problem in the past.

I have a 2019 4Runner with 35K miles on it. I am at a tire shop getting new tires and they said I need new brakes and rotors. Is this possible? I think I only changed my brakes and pads on my 2007 4Runner like twice since it got totaled a few years ago. And it had 200k on the clock. I will...

Our factory tires are dead on our 2019 4Runner. It basically our kids shuttle car, and my wife car. We use it to go skiing and no off road use. Are the The MICHELIN Defender2 tires a good pick to replace the current tires which suck and are dead at 30K miles? I used to run them on my Tacoma...

No itemized quote. There is a slight dent which I believe can be pulled out and then just the scratches you can see in the picture. Nothing needs to be replaced.

Hey all, The rear end of my 4Runner got hit in a parking lot. I took it to an auto body shop and the first quote I got was for $2,400 to fix. There is a slight dent in the center and the rest is just scratches. Is this a decent quote, or is it a "I am way too busy to do this small job but if...

Last night for the 1st time I needed to unload the cargo area of my 2019 runner. To my suprise there was no done light over the cargo area, just those 2 shitty lights on the tail gate when raised and standing in front - don't do much. What have you done to improve lighting in the cargo area?

I still have not used it.

My 2007 would routinely report 22 MPG Avg. My 2019, bone stock with 13,000 miles- I have not seen love 17 MPG.

Thanks - I guess I should have mentioned that a lot of manufactures are making things in a way these days that you have to take them back to a dealer to get serviced. My wife's newer Volkswagon Golf Sport Wagon needs a new water pump. I could replace this on my 2007 4Runner- but on her car...

I had a 2007 4Runner that through time I did most of the maintenance on. Pretty straight forward stuff. My new 2019 only has 12,000 miles on it at the moment, so I don't need to do anything- but in the future are basic maintenance items still serviceable by me? Thanks-

Hijack here... I have a 2016VW Golf Sport wagon with 96K on it. It started burning oil. slowly at first and now over 6+ quarts between its 10K oil changes. Not a drop of oil in our driveway. I changed the PVC valve about 20K miles ago. I took it to the stealer and they could not find...

Are you still running premium at today's gas prices?
