Edmunds has a discussion on faulty master cylinders. I don't know if that could be it. To me, it does not sound right.

The model is the Panasonic CX-DP 610. The dealers insisted that the Toyota changer goes in the center console. I had the seller install it because they did it for about $55, and they are more familiar with ripping up dashboards and reassembling them than I am. The other information is in the...

I can relate to the contents of the article. I bought a 2001 E320, and visited the service bay 6 times in the first six months for various repairs. The night I was driving it off the lot, a malfunction indicator came on. It took me three visits and two months to get it fixed. One day I rolled...

Two different dealerships told me that it had to go into the center console, but I did not believe them, since the manual shows the DVD going into the glove box. Then when I had the Panasonic CD changer installed (same size as the Toyota CD changer), I had the installer push it into the glove...

The CD changer fits in the glove box slot, but the glove box cannot close.

The rear air suspension should be quiet, and definitely not sound like a jack hammer when you change the settings. Mine makes a click with muted metallic ring when the valve opens, a hissing sound as it expels air, and another click-muted ring when the valve closes. It hisses when the bladders...

Ant: Go to www.tweeter.com and look in the store locator for a Tweeter store near you. Tweeter is the division of chains in Jersey. I hope they operate like Soundadvice. The model is the Panasonic CX-DP 610. I paid $333 including tax, installed for the Panasonic changer. I paid an additional...

Hi Ant: You have the same 4runner like I do...V8, Nav, galactic gray, Air suspension. Congrats on a good choice of vehicle. i.e., 4runner. I added the CD changer through Soundadvice, an electronics chain here in Florida. They are part of the Tweeter Group so you might be able to do it in other...

It looks like it was cleaned up to hide some leaks. The harnesses, cables and tubes look rather haphazardly arranged as well. The radiator looks dented, as if it is a junk yard replacement. Maybe the front end was hit. It does look fishy.

If anyone has added a 6 disk CD changer to an '03 with NAV, please answer this question: Can you select CDs directly by touching the numbers on the screen, as opposed to using the scan switch to step through disks sequentially?

V8 Limited This is my first post to the board. I bought a V8 Limited about 4 weeks ago. It has Nav, side curtain air bags, air suspension, 2WD, and it is Galactic Gray. This is the most quiet vehicle I have ever had, including a 2001 MB E320. Solid feel, drinks gas, comfortable seats...
