Thanks for the suggestion! I'll check the brake lights next time it doesn't shift. I'm not too concerned about the price (I'll just get the OEM switch). I'm more concerned about fixing the problem as its very annoying. :)

Thanks AuSeeker. Any other thoughts on what could be causing the issue? This morning I had no issues shifting, but when I stopped the vehicle after about 20 mins, shifted into P and then tried to shift to Drive a couple of mins later it wouldn't shift. Two mins later, it shifted without any...

Yes, the brake lights are working. Do you have a link to the "brake switch" so that I can order it? Thanks.

I'm having the exact same issue with a twist. Sometimes when I start the vehicle, all three lights come on and when I attempt to change gear, it won't let me change gear. I've had the codes scanned, and no codes show up. I was able to get the truck moving by pressing down on the small covered...

Thanks! I talked to a mechanic friend of mine that works for Erin Park Toyota and the OEM price on the regulator is exactly the same as what you got - CAD$180. Needless to say, I'll buy it through him and get it installed very soon. Thanks for all your help, its very much appreciated!

Would the 1550 version be significantly less bright? The 1600 is too expensive on Amazon.ca, but the 1550 is reasonably priced -...

Ok thanks. I have not had a chance to take the panel off yet. Will do that today. I hope the tabs are salvageable. The motor still works, its just the glass that fell in. How did you score that deal? I put the regulator in the cart and the shipping to Ontario is a whopping USD $100.

Hi lightfreak! This is awesome!!! :) I must have the exact same issue as you did. I also read your very detailed thread and saw all the pictures you posted. Very helpful indeed! I looked at the parts list you linked above and I think this is what I need (can you please confirm?) 1...

The window in my tail gate is stuck and its clear (at least to my inexperienced eyes) that the power mechanism (?) is broken. Can someone tell me what the part or parts are so that I can look for them online and purchase them? Its a 2005 4Runner V6 Sport Edition without the integrated spoiler...

Just curious - GTR_Mike, do you also have a GTR? :)

Here is what it cost me: 5th gen 4Runner calipers - front - $95 x 2 5th gen 4Runner calipers - rear - $85 x 2 5th gen 4Runner Rotors - WBR - front - $87.5 x 2 4th gen 4Runner Rotors - WBR - rear - $67.5 x 2 5th gen 4Runner pads - Akebono ceramic - front - $95.5 5th gen 4Runner pads - Advics...

Same place I got the calipers from - Midwest calipers

Some more pics

Thanks pjbrownva ^^ I ended up getting rebuilt calipers - 5th gen 4Runner front and back and then new rotors (5th gen 4Runner spec for the fronts and 4th gen 4Runner spec for the rears), Stoptech stainless steel braided lines from Rockauto and Motul synthetic Dot 4 fluid from Amazon. The...

How much brake fluid do we need to buy to flush the system?
