Another update: I just put the NAPA 703-1720 locking cap on my 2014 TE and it has been working just fine for a number of days. Actually I think this new NAPA number locking cap is still made by Stant as there is a S embossed on it just like the older part number even though it now says Balkamp...

Anyone know how to adjust the headlights left or right on the 2014 5th Gen's?

A bit of feedback. I have used the Napa 703-1641 locking gas cap on my 2010 TE for four years straight. Never one bit of problem. Now I just took that same locking gas cap off when I sold the 2010 TE and put in on my new 2014 TE. Again not one bit of problem with fit or function of this...

Yup I have the same thing happening here with my 2014 Trail w/KDSS. I have about 100 miles on it now but it did it the very first day when turning left at low speed and going over a few small road bumps. Sounds to me like suspension coil springs smacking on something. I am going into the dealer...

Hello, Is there a "Repair Manual" out for the 2014 TE 4Runners yet? I just picked up a 2014 TE 4Runner and I would like to remove the silver front bumper chin, silver rear bumper tail, and silver roof bars to get painted. Any thoughts on how to remove these would be appreciated. Regards, Tgrds

Rest in peace Mike. My sincere condolences to your family.

Well did a few things today: Added some more mechanical and chemical traps around the garage and just outside the garage even though I have not seen any activity here for the past two months. Added a few mechanical traps to the interior of the vehicle and under the hood. So far no luck. I...

Well took it into the dealer today, and the service guys said it looks like some kind of mouse or pack-rat must have gotten up in there. I asked how the heck could that happen, he just smiled and asked if I smelled anything funny to see if it had died yet. I said no, how about you rip apart my...

Cabin Air filter Debri Anyone know what the hell is this stuff clogging up my cabin air filter. All the debri you see in the bag I actually had to pull out from between the dashboard and the plastic frame containing the cabin air filter. Half of it was on top of the filter the other half was...

Never measured but knowing the battery, fuel tank, jack, and tire tool kit are all on the left side I specifically load all my heavy gear on the right side. Including spare tools under the hood on the right side where the empty battery space is. Good luck... just balance the load...

Thank you for the clarification you are correct, I was talking about the TRAC button and thought that was the A-TRAC button which is the one next to it. I will have to give that 3 second push on the TRAC button a test to see if that works, that will be most helpful helpful. Thank you. As far...

I do not think this statement holds true for all. I have a TE 4runner and click OFF the A-TRAC when in 2WD so I can spin the rear wheels as much as I like in the snow and mud. All though the warning beep and light still goes on when it senses that the vehicle is sliding. This is really really...

Thank you for being more specific in where to look, much appreciated. I am also bringing my rig in to an auto/battery specialized electronics shop tomorrow to get them squared away with putting a second battery in the front right side of the engine compartment. I will bring in these schematics...

Bump for this question. I would also like to know if anyone has solved this issue of having not only all the 12 V outlets always on but the 120 V AC outlets as well as? That link above did nothing but give me a headache.:redbrick:

That's what I figured, this is "really irritating" since I am paying the same price per gallon as I did before winter hit, and now with less miles per gallon. I am going to stop using Coscto gas for a while and take a look at one of the Chevron gas stations around here to see if it is any...
