Let me start by saying SORRY I’m sure this has probably been covered but the search function here isn’t the best. My 2018 TRD Off Road with 50,000+ miles has developed a noise (sounds like 2 pieces of styrofoam rubbing together or possibly a dry suspension grommet) most of the time. I’ve had it...

For 30+ years I’ve purchased Toyota’s from Scott Clark Toyota in Charlotte. Great service department. In 2015 I moved to SW Virginia and bought my last 4 Runner from Mt. Airy Toyota in Mt. Airy North Carolina. Couldn’t have asked for a better buying experience and after 2 years I’ve got nothing...

My totally stock ‘18 with 7,000 miles is averaging 19.6 MPG per Fuelly which is really close to the computer read out. That’s almost all mountain driving. No level roads around here. During break in on a trip down the Blue Ridge Parkway ( speed limit 45) I got 23 on one tankful but that’s not...

When I read cautions like that I generally don’t use the product. Some will read that and feel that it’s perfectly OK to use. I get from it that it does corrode aluminum and the longer you leave it not totally rinsed, the more corroding it’s going to do. But that’s just me.

Do what you want, club, alarms, electronics, worry yourself sick over it. Doesn’t much matter. If they want it badly enough, they’ll get it. Make sure you’re insured and don’t worry about it. In 2007 I bought a Shelby GT, a retirement gift to myself. F&I salesperson tried to sell me LoJack. Said...

Welcome to the forum. Your second pic had me going for a while! Looks good.

Really looks great to my taste. I normally don't care for black or gun metal wheels (looks like a black whole to me) but the Enkei's look great. Good job!

Bingo. I knew I'd feel stupid if I asked but that was it. I generally run the lights on all the time. Going to DRL makes everything good. Thanks KarrotJuice and others.

Yes. That's the first thing I tried. The thumbwheel has no affect on the clock brightness, at least not on mine. I'm really impressed at the brightness of the instrument panel but the digital clock is really lacking in the daylight.

At night it's fine but in the daylight my clock on my 2018 TRDORP is too dim to read. I've looked in the OM and can't find any reference to adjusting it. I've also done a search to no avail. The thumbwheel adjustment for dash light brightness seems to have no affect on the clock. Does anyone...

So far I've had no problems with Nav on my 2018 T4R. Not so on my 2015 Subaru CrossTrek. On a trip from Maine back to NC last year coming through Hartford Conn. I was instructed to turn left off an elevated I-84 where there was nothing to the left but a concrete barrier and a long drop down...

Thanks for the reply. I've been out of town and just tried it today. After setting Speed Limit in options and then pushing the i icon, it worked. Thanks so much.

Like you said, trading so soon isn't the best idea but...life's to short to drive something you're not happy with. My experience is similar to yours in that I traded in a perfectly good Subaru CrossTrek that just wasn't me. I did keep it 3 years though and actually did very well on trade in...
