    Clunking Noise from Driver's Side Front Wheel (VIDEO)

    Tbh I can’t recall since I did the TBU 4 years ago. The pads are still at around 70%. I think given the time since they were installed, I should probably replace my brakes soon, so I’ll be sure to check. I have always put the shims and anti-squeal clips in, and I didn’t see either one of those...

    Clunking Noise from Driver's Side Front Wheel (VIDEO)

    I checked that, and it was nice and solid. Not wiggling at all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Clunking Noise from Driver's Side Front Wheel (VIDEO)

    Got a clunking noise coming from the driver's side front wheel whenever I go over a speed bump, pothole, or any uneven surface. I shot a video on my GoPro but couldn't find any anomaly when I drove around the block. Bilstein 5100s and OME 880 springs are less than 3 years old with less than 10k...

    what are the symptoms of busted LCA or UCA bushings

    For me, whenever I go up a driveway, I can hear a “thud” from the side where the bushings were bad. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Remote keyless entry stops working intermittently

    Thanks! I will definitely check it through this week. Any specific areas where the wires are prone to fail? The area underneath the black boot attached to the hatch, perhaps? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Remote keyless entry stops working intermittently

    I have a 2001 SR5 with factory keyless entry. For the past three years, the remote keyless entry works just fine, albeit the range is short compared to most cars made within the last five years, but I guess that’s just an old tech vs. new tech problem. Recently, my remote fob will not lock or...

    TBU worth it as DD (not riding Heavy)...

    I have never towed, but the TBU was the first mod I did when I got my 3rd gen. I have come down steep grades from driving in the mountains, and never once did my brakes overheated. I have been stuck driving in Sam Francisco, coming down one of those famous steep hills in the city, then bumper to...

    VSC OFF, VSC TRAC lights on, no CEL, no codes

    When I installed LEDs to my cluster, I only swapped out the three main illuminating ones (the bigger bulbs). I tried swapping out all the warning lights, and they were way too bright, and because they were way too bright, the colors were all wrong...Blue became light blue, orange became yellow...

    VSC OFF, VSC TRAC lights on, no CEL, no codes

    Yes I did. But I did it a month ago, and it just started happening yesterday. How do I jump the diagnostic port like you described? Sorry, I'm a complete noob when it comes to this, and I'm assuming you mean this diagnostic port, next to the intake manifold?

    VSC OFF, VSC TRAC lights on, no CEL, no codes

    All, I'm at a loss here. My 2001 4Runner SR5 now has both VSC OFF and VSV TRAC lights on, but no CEL. The truck drives fine with no noticeable issues. I tried doing some searches on this site, unfortunately the search function is garbage. The results I got were mostly with those two lights AND...

    VSC OFF and TRAC/VSC lights both came on

    Hi Gerjer89, sorry for resurrecting an old thread, but i did a search and after sifting through all the results, this is the most relevant thread. You had mentioned that it's bulb for the shifter, and I did change that to a LED bulb. However, I changed it last month, and for about a month...

    Best headlight bulbs?

    I had Sylvania Silver Stars, and they were good for halogen bulbs, but they are, at the end of the day, halogens. So, at the beginning of this year, I started researching LED bulbs. I’ve seen most LED bulbs and how they are just blindingly bright, or they have that ricey-looking blue or purple...
