Rust does happen Not trying to hijack this thread, but think this is relevant. I posted recently on the forum about my 2018 that I got a few months ago. It came with the kit to blank out the roof (i.e., no roof rack). I decided I wanted a stock roof rack and found one cheap locally. I...

I just got a 2018 SR5 Premium a few months ago and it had the roof rack removed and the replacement kit installed. I found a local roof rack and installed it, sealing it properly, etc. After a hard rain the other day, I found water on my driver's side floorboard. Drove me crazy with trying to...

Rear brake shoe adjustment I don't think so because you have to turn the star adjuster to loosen or tighten them...

RE: Head Gasket repair I just had mine done. Make sure they do both sides and use Toyota OEM gaskets. They came out with a new design in 06. Some guys get their valve guides replaced. A reputable shop will replace what they see needs to be done. What's the quote for labor?

Add my 05 V6 to the List - P0304 Kept getting P0304 error code on startup with rough idling (misfire on #4). First mechanic switched coils and it seemed ok for a month. Then it got worse and the check engine light started flashing for 10 seconds on start. Took it to another shop right away...

A couple of shortcuts... I had to fix my parking brake over the weekend on the passenger side, so I wanted to add a few things here that might help because it's not easy as others have mentioned. First, the left hand brake shoe has a angle piece of metal attached to it that gets in the way...

80k miles is nothing on these Suvs. I just traded my 2012 Honda Accord for a 2005 SR5 with 155k miles on it. Things to look out for regarding my experience: * Check that the spare's good and no warning lights stay on at dash. My TPMS light was on and I had to replace two sensors to get it to...
