No Recall on Sunroof! The sunroof on my 2004 Sport locked up last weekend. Took it to the dealer and they had it for 2-days. They replaced everything mechanical for the sunroof, including the motor. The only thing they reused was the glass. They did a very good job, even reinstalling the...

We haven't heard from him since December. He always contributed a lot to the forums...even the "off topic" forum.

I just had my Revo's rotated at Costco. I asked the manager what would happen if I had a road hazard issue with one of the Revo's. He told me they could NOT get a Revo to replace the bad tire. They will prorate it and give me 3 FREE tires of either the newest BFG or Michelin (same company)...

Re: Extended Warranty Update A long ago thread but...Just wondering if anyone who purchased the Toyota Platinum Warranty from out of state has had good luck with it. I know it was a huge savings but have you used it and have you had any problems with your local Toyota Dealer not honoring it?

Just got my $75 rebate check on Saturday after purchasing them from Costco in Sept. Less the rebate check the Revo's were just $630 including tax, mounting, free rotation, haz warranty etc, etc.

The paint code for the silver bumper insert (and the Sport Roof Rack) is Toyota/Lexus 1D4 (P/N 00258-001D4). It matches exactly. I put a scratch on the silver part of the bumper the 1st day I got it. Now I don't even know it's there. It is the brush type. It is NOT listed on the paint code sticker.

Remember...Revo's price will increase by 8% on Nov 1st. Also if you can get them before the 15th you get the rebate. I got 4 265-65-17's from Costco for $707, including (Ohio)tax. That comes out to just over $630 using the $75 rebate. With out the rebate and after the price increase the cost...

Don't wait too long for the REVO'S. Price goes up 8% on Nov. 1st. Probably the first price increase of several to come in the next few months. See info on Firestone's web site: http://firestone.com/news/news_index.asp?id=2005/050915b

Just picked up Revo's tonight from Costco. Costco's price installed was $660 for 4 tires. Firestone's price was around $830. I chose the 265-65-17's. Both prices included road hazard coverage, lifetime rotation, etc. These tires are everything that this group has stated. What a difference they...

If you read the previous replys to the oriiginal thread you will see several responses on why not to use Acetone and they are all legit. This is a very aggressive chemical that removes uncured epoxy and polyester resin. It disolves rubber and many plastics. I can't believe anyone would want to...

I figured someone would try to steal it sooner or later so I put Epoxy adhesive on the rubber and inserted it in the hitch. If someone tries to take it out they will destroy it and it will be of little use to them in pieces. I will probably never tow but if I do at least I will be the one to...

Thanks Thai for the thread. I'll keep my fingers crossed that it will last as long as I keep the truck. My worry would be that something would happen at around 40,000 miles....just after the warranty expires and Toyota wouldn't cover it. Repairing it could be mighty expensive. I guess time will...

I've searched the forums and can't find anything about maintenance on the X-Reas suspension....Is there any? Will it last the lifetime of the truck or will the shocks need replaced? If so when and what would be the cost? I"m thinkin long term ownership. Thanks!

I am unfortunately one of the few who can't figure out how to post pics. I've tried to attach them through the "Browse" button and even the "IMG'" button, I've even used the Search button to see how others have done it. I attach photo's in other forums and e-mails but no luck here. That's why I...

I went with XM (Sky Fi 2)and used the Belkin Tune Dock, only $20 at Circuit City. All wires went under the console. There was a hole drilled in the back of the cup holder to run wires through. Not even noticable. If I sell the 4R no one will never know XM was in there. I still can use steering...
