    Oil Change @ 435K

    400K miles +, you are doing something right for sure! Mine is 11 years older with only 170K miles. As I recall yours gets a lot of road miles going to Montanna or somewhere.

    Welcome to the new platform

    S far I don't like it. Not user friendly IMO. The usual when apps get 'upgraded', they are not as useful as before.

    2021 4Runner Limited: 2" front / 1" rear lift with 275/60R/20 tires ?

    Threads become 'useless' when the people stop responding. With this one there was no 'problem' to be solved, so it just died off.

    Thoughts on how long the 4 banger + turbo will last?

    Base engine probably go 200K with good mainteneance, but the turbo may not make it that far unless it is treated kindly.

    '08 not holding alignment after ft end rebuild

    So let us know if your last trip with 'steering nice and tight' deteriorates quickly. Do you off road, or are you street only, like me?

    Check This Out

    I have that gurgling sound as well on my V8, been doing it for couple of years but no other signs of anything wrong, HVAC works fine.

    What happened to "What I did to my 4runner today"!?! Also, suspension borked

    Use your floor jack under your LCA as your spring compressor, much simpler and quicker then using a spring compressor.

    5100 OME Kit Regrets - Way higher than expected

    You should have measured your fender height before the install then you'd know where you are relative to it. Secondly, on what clip did the shop install the front?

    I replaced the drivers seat cover on my '03 a few months ago and very pleased as well.

    2005 4Runner, perforated passenger side frame, dealer says unsafe. 2nd opinion?

    Only YOU can decide if it's WORTH getting fixed. I had two plates welded on my passenger side 5 years ago, for $1000 but rust is a yearly battle that still continues.

    Possible MC ABS unit failure

    I checked it with my Vin for my '03/V8 and got a confirmed fit, so it must be V8 specific for some reason.

    Possible MC ABS unit failure

    Did you thoroughly inspect your rotors, pulled each one off and looked at both sides? I was sure my M/C was failing earlier this year but on advice from Car Care Nut, I did a thorough inspection and found a seized caliper and backside of one front rotor wiped out. Replaced with new and all is good!
