I thought I had a broken pump only to have my mechanic point out that the tube came off the nipple to wiper jets - was a simple fix

I like the one from Burtman.

I suggest getting a new one or a new used one. I gotta a load of crap of why I wanted a 4runner to begin with - big car gas guzzler yadda yadda yadda. On Christmas day a POS white celica almost side swiped me on the freeway on the way to dinner. I braked in time, and let the driver have it...

I use car shampoo and a stiff brush or P21 APC to scrub away all the dirt.

Most clay bars will come with a detailing spray which will act as a lubricant. Not all detailing sprays will work very well as a lubricant. I ran out of the Griot's detailing spray, and opted to use the NXT detailing spray thinking it was the same - not even close. You can use the soapy car...

I use a bug & tar remover sponge http://classic-motoring.stores.yahoo.net/saf-scrub.html

No nerdy guys. Just big 6' mo fo's (nam vets) who have zero tolerance to coming up in your face and telling you how pissed they are.

Okay so my Stealer says to me "hey, you missed two major services" wtf? He was referring to the 30k and 60k major service that needs to be done. Do all the fluids need to drained refilled, filters replaced, new spark plugs, etc need to done every 24 months if I don't get to the 30k miles first?

Outside of this thread there's just a ton of talk on what to do e.g. cut the wires, install a switch once you cut the wires, and then there's that whole light press the brake pedal while slowly let down the parking break. I don't like cutting wires, not installing no switch, and the parking...

Yeah, no kidding. I talked to my brother in law who has a tire store and can give me the hookup with a muffler shop down the street from him. It went from 800+ to $725 (he has to talk to "his manager"). After this I'm going to my brother in law's place for everything else. Now the total is...

So the exhaust pipe rusted and broke away from the muffler. I bring it to my local dealership, it's about $550.00 for the muffler (and exhaust pipe as quoted) yesterday. I get a call back today and they said the muffler came in, but the exhaust pipe is extra - an extra $200.00 WTF? Do the...

I have mine 2-3psi above what is labeled on the door.

Jason - what are the differences between the left and right tail lights in the picture.

Ouch I'm sorry you even had to experience being hit in the first place outside of crappy insurance service you're getting. I hope Allstate comes through and pays up on everything that needs to be fixed.

I haven't tried the UDM, but I do see more and more e-tailers are carrying them. I have the 7424 and love it.
