Just do a full flush on it, top it off and call it good. My sisters 07 v6 4x4 went into limp mode and through an atf temp light on the dash. Got it home after another 800+ miles through the mountains, ordered a trans cooler. Went to do the fluid flush and found, no joke, a factory plug...

Well its an end of an era for me. I sold the rig a couple days ago.

Sold.

For sale is my beloved 2002 4runner I am the 2nd owner and I bought it in 2008, I know I am going to regret it is time to let it go. Clean title in hand. It doesn't get used nearly enough and at this point is just a backup rig/camping/Tahoe ski day rig. Recently was my DD while my '19 f150 was...

Go put it in 4x4 at home on the street/in a parking lot. Let it idle and make a sharp turn, it should stop and bind up. That would confirm 4x4 is truly working and maybe it was as simple as a particularly icy spot on the road.

Any chance something is broken in the front end? its could be in 4x4 but if you have a broken CV or something, the open diff would just spin no power would be applied to the front. edit: Do you have Manual hubs swapped in? The only time(s) I've had the rear end come around on me in the snow is...

I get 65k in duratracs. Did have some cupping issues but that had to due with poor rotations and wornout lca bushings.

Front cat did it. Magnaflow Weld in. all flags set, shes good to go for a long time. It is now for sale, anyone interested? Located in Lincoln, ca.

Its time to post it up for sale unfortunately. ive put <3k miles on it in 3+ years.

Well I was going to replace the 2nd on because it's the easier one. But yes.

Oh I do not want to remove the cat completely. Just replace it. You can get CARB approved cats from magnaflow for example, they are just $$$. I was actually just reading your post and someone mentioned the gaskets in the exhaust. That is a great idea of something I am going to check. I know...

no, its not using coolant. Back to the original question. For those of you in CA, can I get away with simply replacing just one of the cats? I guess my biggest question is that legal assuming I get a CARB Cat.

Are you saying you have replaced everything and the code still comes back? Unfortunately, I wouldn't be asking if that was the case. All sensors need to be "ready" except the evap. Problem since mine is an 02, once any code pops up, it disabled Trac and VSC as well. I am sure your 01 does the...

I have been fighting emissions problems with my rig for the last 3+ years. My 4runner is a 1500/mile rig with 312k on it so I haven't put much effort in it. Its time to seriously considering letter her go. It threw a p1135 the other day. All the wiring checked out, the heater coil checked...

I get 60-65k on duratracs. I am on my 3rd set.
