    Strange static coming from dash on morning start up

    So I replaced the clamp, didn’t change anything, replaced the ground cable to the battery, that kinda helped but not all the way. Btw I just had the engine replaced so maybe a ground isn’t on all the way. Does anyone know where all the ground locations are? It’s a V6 also Sent from my iPhone...

    Strange static coming from dash on morning start up

    So unhooking the battery for a hour seemed to do the trick with switching it back to Merican units but ya I’m gonna get a different connector because it probably is arcing a bit Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Strange static coming from dash on morning start up

    I recently replaced my negative terminal connector and since on morning start ups I hear a static and my 03 t4r will have all gauges goto zero. No idea what’s causing this but this morning it happened and now my outside temperature and ac temperature is reading in Celsius and not Fahrenheit and...

    Check Engine light for P0420 and P0430

    I’ll definitely try this I talked to my mechanic and he said as long as the engine is running fine I should be good but I’ll try to clean the MAS with some iso alcohol. I already have a nice K&N air filter I probably need to clean it so hopefully that works. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Check Engine light for P0420 and P0430

    So I recently had my engine replaced in my 2003 V6 4Runner and I still keep having a check engine light pop up for the P0420 and P0430 codes for the catalytic converter bank 1 which I believe is on the passenger side. I’m moving across the country in 2 weeks and my mechanic had me put this CRC...

    Head gasket blown (2003 V6)

    So my engine started overheating I noticed my radiator blew and I replaced that the thermostat and the fan clutch. It did fine for a bit then my battery decided to take a shit, replaced that along with new spark plugs and ignition coils because it also started misfiring. It was running good for...

    Bad Fan Clutch?

    Ok well that will be fun with I’m sure. Another thing I didn’t mention earlier is that the heat was barely working. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Bad Fan Clutch?

    But it is a good possibility that it is the HG I really hope not but it is on my to do list before the next move probably sooner rather than later. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Bad Fan Clutch?

    2003, 1GR-FE, 290224 miles, I did replace the radiator cap. And I replaced the fan clutch and thermostat last night went to drive to work this morning and it still started to overheat, it may be due to me spilling some of the coolant and when I say some I mean a good amount when changing the...

    I know, another VSC light thread

    I had the VSC OFF and VSC TRAC lights on for awhile now I just did a zero point calibration yesterday and it worked fine and they are staying off. Fairly easy to do yourself just google how to do it on your t4r because I don’t remember the exact steps. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Bad Fan Clutch?

    So I had a radiator that I just replaced less than 6 months ago blow on me again (I’ll attach pictures) so I got a new radiator, fan clutch and thermostat and couldn’t drive until I replaced at least the radiator and I did that just last weekend on the 2nd of December, 2023. The fan clutch and...
