    First 2010 road test. Questions.

    Can't say anything about sounds, 4Runners are not exactly quiet, but shouldn't be excessively loud. Original keys should start 4Runner, I had my 2010 SR5 for 11 years, never had problems with keys, think I replaced key battery no more than 2 times for that time. As per rear window - key should...

    LT tires need more air pressure.

    my take on it that tire pressure should be able to support vehicle weight and don't go over maximum tire pressure. So for any vehicle each tire should support weight no less than than 1/2 of the Gross Axle Weight Ratings (GAWR). So if you check air pressure table for your size and type of tire...

    OBD port lock

    Thieves break rear passenger window, get inside, connect their device to OBD port and start the truck. But it's only for newer models with push button start.

    OBD port lock

    I would recommend to look up OBD relocation kit, I got it on ebay I think. And then use this lock for fake port. The thing is that in 4Runner ODB port is easily accessed from behind and thieves most likely use needle probes with their hacking devices. At least my ODB lock didn't delay thieves...

    TRD Pro vs old Trail

    No heated steering wheel in my truck unfortunately. it's a really useful thing though, I would have it for instead of push button start, collision assist or blind spot mirror lights.

    TRD Pro vs old Trail

    I thought all 2022 have DCM module but I have 2022 TRD Offroad Canadian Edition, so maybe it's different from US version. My T4R has Remote Connect app, dealer helper to register app with Toyota, I had to press SOS button and Toyota representative sent me the code to activate app. But it's only...

    TRD Pro vs old Trail

    I upgraded from 2010 SR5 to 2022 Trd Offroad. I got new fancy dashboard, push start button, big screen rear and front cameras with panoramic view (sort of grainy, but useable), auto lights, auto high beams, bunch of electronic assists like bling spot check, collision detection and adaptive...

    Winter Tire vs All Terrain Snow Rated Tire

    I use Duratracs for the past maybe 10 years and they were good to me so far all year round. I'm quite pleased with winter and trail performance and I don't have to change tires every winter and mess with TPMS sensors. Duratracs last about 90,000 km and become a little noisy at the end of life...

    Key fob question on 2020+ 4Rs

    I tried to use fob without battery on my 2022. As soon as I turned physical key in the lock alarm went off , but it stopped when I put the fob against start button and started the truck. So it starts just fine but alarm is embarrassing.

    Entering GPS coordinates into the Navigation system

    Thanks, it will work for some points, I guess I will carry my Garmin and when I arrive to destination I save it in my truck Nav. But it would be nice to find a way to enter gps coordinates directly. It strange that truck made for off-road has purely street navigation system...

    Entering GPS coordinates into the Navigation system

    My GPS coordinates are places with no address - camp sites, trail heads, lake access points, points of interest on logging roads and so on.

    Auto emergency braking

    If you are talking about brake assist - it was in T4R in 2010 already. It's not fully auto though, you have to press brake sharp and fast and system will press if all the way scaring the hell out of you.
