In all seriousness, it started working on its own. I THINK Android Auto and my phone received updates which enabled everything to work. I didn't update the head unit nor make any hardware changes. What phone do you currently have?

Thanks "daytonaviolet!" Love your Runner! I may do the same thing down the road.

Thanks guys! Let me check it out. Will let you know the outcome.

Wire Tap Question .... Hi everyone.. I recently installed LED strip lights on my running boards (2016 limited). They illuminate with my turn signals, hazards and SUPPOSED to when locking/unlocking. I don't know what wire to tap into in order for them to illuminate with my dome/interior...

Oh do tell. Whats the "special" app?

Yes I did. I called Alpine and they don't "think" it needs a firmware update. I researched Alpine's website like crazy and didn't find links for any updates either.

Hi guys, I haven't posted in a while, but I just installed the Alpine ILX-F309 last week and I'm experiencing two problems. One, Android Auto (AA) will not launch with my Samsung Galaxy S20+. Anyone else have the same issues? Secondly, older Samsung Phones will work with AA (my wifes S10+...

Hi Guys.... One of my swaybar end links needs to be replaced, so I will most likely replace both of them. I don't know if the age of the truck (2003 with 120K miles) or the lift bent the end link, but it needs to be replaced. Here is the question. I have the 3/2 Cornfed Lift on my Runner with...

Hey Guys.... Stupid question and I cannot seem to find the answer on the forums. I have the 3/2 Cornfed kit on my 4Runner. My mechanic told me that I may have to replace my sway bar in the future, but not immediately. My truck is a 2003 and 113,000 miles, so things are starting to fall...

Thanks for the suggestions. I think the boots have been ripped for a couple thousand miles and given the winter weather so far in NJ, I think replacing just the boot would not be sufficient. Probably better replacing the whole axle. Is there any chance that serious damage could occur?

Hi everyone...my cv boots are ripped and need to be replaced. My mechanic said that its not that bad and the whole cv axle needs to be replaced (he recommends after the winter). There is no clicking and it squeaks once in a while. Should I do it now or wait until after winter? For what its...

If you ever reconsider shipping it, I would be interested. I'm in NJ.

I have four 17" oem Toyota 4Runner wheels. They came off my 2003 4Runner. One is peeling, but the other three are in good shape. They are not bent. The tires are mounted and have about 45,000 miles. Tires may have a few thousand miles left (BF Goodrich Long Trail T/A 265x65x17). Please make...

So...I did some extra trimming and got the wheel alignment done. So far so good. Here is the picture of where the rubbing is occurring.

About 110,000 miles.
