Makes sense. Thanks

Recently Ive had an issue where when I try to accelerate, the RPMS go up but it takes a second to kick in and go. I have to lay off the gas for it to catch up. I looked underneath and it look like something has been slowly dripping on my driveway but I cant tell what it is exactly.. Any ideas?

Sweet. Thanks guys Ill look at the options. I guess first action is to flush and put new fluid in.

This morning I noticed the steering was just a tad harder to steer....it wasnt hard but it wasnt smooth either. I checked the fluid and it looks fine. Its not a major concern yet but I obviously want to fix it before it gets serious. Anything else I should look at?

Just searched this issue and came up with your thread. I noticed today when I opened my sunroof, I had a 2 inch or so part that was rusting...never noticed it before. After doing some research it seems like others have the same issue and the gasket isnt replaceable like you said. I am thinking...

Decided I couldn't use the stock radio anymore and upgraded to the pioneer nex4200. It has Android auto and apple carplay. I had JBL system so I wanted to keep the sound I had so I got the pac radio4 converter. It works great. I also didn't want to have USB wires coming out of glove box or...

I am looking to hook up my backup camera easily to the wires in the hatch. All i need is a ground and 12v power. I am running a wireless backup camera, thats why my wires are not going thru the whole car.

I just purchased a Pioneer nex 4200 and a PAC RP4.2 harness. From what I read it will hook up the JBL and HU together....also the steering wheel. The PAC gets delivered on Monday so I am hoping most of it is just plug and play and not much guessing.

UPDATE: So after reading your responses and doing some searching it looks like I have found the problem. It looks to be liquid wax from the side mirror that leaked out during the rain. I have tried to get it off by water and scratch remover but nothing works. So I then tried a simple pencil...

I took it to a local auto body shop and they couldn't say what it was caused from but it does indeed look to below the clear coat. If you look at the running boards it seems like the white dripped down like something came off from the rain but I don't know what could do that. I called the...

It doesnt feel any different at all.

It doesnt react to water. It doesnt feel any different than the rest of the panel. Its smooth as everything else.

Its not vandalism. My wife parks right next to me and her car is fine. The paint isn't peeling, its almost like some kind of chemical was splashed on there. I honestly cant make sense of it.

I purchased the 4runner on Saturday. Came out this morning and noticed this on the side door. We had a hard rain all day yesterday but I am trying to figure out what could cause this and what the heck is it. I would have noticed this at the dealership. Any ideas?
