I had an Autopage C3 installed about a month ago. The tech used a transponder, which I was a bigger fan of. I didn't like the idea of a key in the truck. As I understand it, transponder can be tricky, but are the prefered method. I have to say that I am pleased with it, and the range is...

I would like to add an auto start to my truck and would like to get recommendation from members in Colorado. The shop that I use to go to isn't doing car stuff any longer. I want to avoid the Best Buy, Car Toys type places. I know this post should be in the audio section, but I was hoping...

I have had the them on my truck for about a year now. On my old ride I ran BFG's and was religious about rotating them...but them come with a price. I found a set of the Yoks at a Discount Tire near my house...did some internet research and pulled the trigger. The are a quiet tire and I don't...

I missed the PM sorry guys. I'm in. I have been busy moving and working. I have a great space for a BBQ, covered patio with an outdoor fireplace. Garage space is small, but should we decide to get together and BS and turn wrenches someother weekend I'm happy to host. I'm at Belleview and...

I have the geolander AT/S and l like them. The do well in the snow. I have not done much off road with them being that I purchased them in the fall right after I bought the truck. I like the huge mileage warranty. No idea if the AT/S is like the M/T.

Here is a great story... When I was shopping for my 4Runner (I had my mind made up already...I had to have a 4Runner again!) a friend of mine made me drive everything else in the class. We went to the local Hummer dealer and went for a drive in the H3. I have to admit that I was surprised...

I'm in. I don't have too much planned. I do have a wish list, but everything I want costs a bunch of money. I wouldn't mind taking on heater mirrors...

Your correct I did see the sames issues with my brothers classic, but those issues are with the Vais unit not the USA Spec. I think you should be fine. If not I can say that their tech support was great and I no problem returning the unit when I ran into problems. Good luck!

The Classic should work just fine with the USA Spec unit. The problems exist with the new nano and the USA Spec. I ended up returning the USA Spec and went with the Vais unit. A little more pricey and it doesn't have the hybrid capability. I had hoped that it would solve some of the short...

It has the most current software. I'm still waiting to hear from Vais. My guess is that it is a Toyota radio limitation. My brother's ipod classis does the same thing. I'm hoping they come out with a fix, but not counting on it!

I want to start this thread by saying that I have received that most impressive customer service from the dealership regarding this issue. It's so refreshing that you can actually find a dealership these days that although made a mistake, they admitted the mistake and corrected the problem no...

Looks to me that you are in the same situation as I am. Here is the deal. On the bottem of the second page of the TSB it states the following 17410-50450 should be replaced with 17410-50490 17450-50121 should be replaced with 17450-50131. My invoice say the same thing as yours, it states...

Update! My suspicision are confirmed. It seems that when they ordered the parts for the TSB they managed to order the parts with the old part numbers. When I went in this afternoon I spoke to a different service tech than when I initially had the repair completed. He looked over the paper...

No they didn't flash the ECM. It's not listed in the 05 V8 Sulfer TSB. I did take a closer look at the work order and I noticed that the part numbers listed on the work order are the same as the old part numbers that where listed to be removed and replaced. The TSB states that the old...

I had some what of the same reaction from the service tech as well when I took mine in for the Sulfer TSB. I had the Sulfer TSB done for an '05 V8. The total bill was crazy. 2 new cats at something like $990 a piece. Problem is that it didn't fix the problem. Stomp on the gas with the...
