    Dead mouse in the vent

    I pulled my blower motor hoping it was there. Fairly clean… I pulled the center faceplate thing and there was a decent nest in there so I vacuumed all that up but I’m still getting that scent of death coming from this vent. I stuck the vacuum as far back as it would go but got no luck there...

    Tow Truck Uh Oh

    Yeeesh, i was hoping there wouldn't be such a strong consensus on the totaling front? I've armed myself with 22 3rd gen comps within 6 hours from me on fb marketplace and craigslist to counter the lowball offer with. I also have a lead on a silver door/glass/interior panel for $100 that is about...

    Tow Truck Uh Oh

    My heater control valve failed on Saturday so i had a ton of coolant spraying on the engine. Parked it, ubered home, and researched the issue that day then decided I wouldn't be that guy asking for a tow on easter sunday so I waited until this morning... just before dropping it off at my...

    Audio Question on switching 4 ohm sub to 2 ohm sub

    hmm, I updated my previous post (autocorrect kept turning sub into sun) and tech support said I couldn't run 2ohm (my previous post erroneously said 4ohm there) bridged. I just looked at the manual and page 8 says: About suitable specification of speaker Ensure speakers conform to the...

    Audio Question on switching 4 ohm sub to 2 ohm sub

    Thanks, I spoke with crutchfield tech support and they said my particular amp doesn’t allow 2 ohms bridged so I’ll need to just run the sub off one channel at only 100w though the sub is rated at 250w. Fine by me as I don’t blast my music too loud and I’m not a bass head. If this sub ends up...

    Audio Question on switching 4 ohm sub to 2 ohm sub

    I got my subwoofer stolen from my car and I'm looking for a replacement... I set up the system in 2013 so I don't remember what will work with what anymore. I did a bunch of research back then but I have forgotten it all over time. I had a 4 ohm sub and I'd like to put a 2 ohm sub in place of...

    Plug for coil pack broke

    Same thing happened to me... since nobody else came back posting any catastrophic errors, I'll assume they stay in well enough? One was broken from the previous shop and today the other two tabs basically disintegrated... aside from that, plugs came out fine and looked pretty decent for 40k...

    Code P0442 showed up

    Yikes, hopefully mine is just the canister! I don't have that kind of tool inventory so mine will go to the shop if i need to drop the tank or do anything that involved

    Code P0442 showed up

    My P0442 popped up in January with 218k miles at sea level, i replaced the gas cap with an OEM one, came back again in March with 220.6k miles at 6,000 feet altitude (i cleared it without doing anything - hoping it was altitude related) then it just popped up again with 222.1k miles tonight...

    3rd Gen TR4 Backup cam?

    About3 months ago, I installed a bucacam200j and it didn't have enough wire for the RCA to make it back to the license plate light. I installed the camera on one of the screws that hold in the license plate lights. My head unit is a Pioneer AVH 4400 NEX (it fits fine despite what crutchfield...

    headunit too deep for a 3rd gen?

    Sorry to be so late to reply here... Yes, it works without any issues. I DID install some 90 degree (one up one down) adapters for the USB ports but it seemed like the ones provided may have worked. I also did NOT install the GPS mount and soldered in a bypass so that I had full functionality...

    headunit too deep for a 3rd gen?

    Thanks, while I hate going against crutchfield, it looks that 7.195 depth is including the USB cable that pertrudes out the back. I'll just get some USB right angle connectors on amazon and hopefully it will all work out. I'll report back to this thread after install... Thanks

    headunit too deep for a 3rd gen?

    I am looking at purchasing a Pioneer AVH-W4400NEX BUT on crutchfield it says it isn't compatible with a 3rd gen because the headunit depth is 7.195" and the 4runner only has 6.951" of space. So i was wondering if i should pull the trigger on this and try to make it work? Wondering if anyone...

    In case anyone is looking for this again, this thread provides the part number, 7137035010E0, which is vastly overpriced but there was DIY type solution on that page I might look into...

    Matte Black Vinyl Wrap

    Coming full circle here, I noticed the wrap wasn't looking as great as it once did so I looked online and saw some horror stories of removing old/dried out vinyl. Since mine stays outside and has been in the Southern California sun for 4 years (and one week) I decided to remove it. I waited...
