    ANCEL FX 2000 OBD2: anyone use this to read transmission temp?

    I purchased this OBD reader (ANCEL FX2000) a month ago and have not been able to figure out how to read transmission temp for the fluid drain and fill process. Is there anyone out there that has used this reader for this purpose? I contacted their customer support and they claim it does read...

    Repair XREAS system - not replace

    What did you end up doing with your XREAS suspension? Its 2021, I looked under the 2015 Limited today and saw both fronts sweating oil. Also, a clanking/knocking when going over bumps slowly. So I would like to consider keeping the system as well.

    Automatic Running Boards Issue

    Fixed my problem - Easy I have a '15 Limited here in Michigan with 64k miles. Two winters ago the auto running boards started acting up like many of yours. Sometimes hesitated stowing and deployment. Sometimes you had to step on it to trick it to stay out. Anyway, they were an expensive option...

    Way to override recirc time limit?

    My 2 cents... I live in Michigan. All of the heating in all of my Toyota's have always been sufficient. If its slow to heat, you may be low on Anti-Freeze(coolant). Only use Toyota Brand coolant. It is bright pink and cannot be mixed with anything else. Their coolant is made for 100k miles of...

    Rust starting on my lift gate already %&*&$#!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    That is absolutely not good news and definitely bad for reputation. It sounds like a common problem. I will have to get a coat of clear coat this spring. I can't keep up with clay and wax. I already have a paid unlimited car wash plan. I can go there everyday, sometimes I do but I still get rust...

    DRL / HighBeam Lights

    Try These I just put these in two months ago. I've been hesitating thinking they will blind people..etc. Here's my two cents. The dual voltage that is produced in the high beam creates two light intensities. High and low(DRL mode). In DRL mode, they're pretty bright but no one has complained...

    Post up your Silver 4runners....

    2nd Silver LTD -another begining It took 3 weeks to finally touch dirt. This is a copy of my 3rd gen that lasted 16 years+. This is looking upon the Mackinac Bridge over the Straits of Mackinac(Mackinaw). My lesson with the 4Runner is to buy more than I need at the time. In the 16 years that I...

    Headlight Dis-assembly '14+

    So I had a bumper accident a couple of months ago. The body shop said that I had a couple of gouges in the right headlight cover and that they were going to replace it along with the other work. They were so happy to do it. These are pictures of the right and left. The right is actually hazy...

    Ideas to prevent rodents from eating our wiring

    Your grandmother used it... We have an MR2 Spyder that we store during the winters in a garage at our house on the lake. We won't see it or touch it for 3 or 4 months. The garage is a warm place for mice to find shelter in the winter. The first year, they got into the "Frunk" and reproduced...

    Help! My 2013 Trail might be burning oil..

    Consider this... Consider this scenario... (I sold cars for a long time). Clean oil is always a positive selling factor. Your not going to consider a car with black motor oil. So when you pull up that dipstick and its golden brown, you have all of your fears dismissed. You may not even look at...
