Is that not the washer for the drain plug?

Been a while so bumping this.

Price reduced. Pedal Commander for 5th Gen for sale. Works like new. $125 plus shipping or local pickup Dallas, TX Thanks!

Do you have to have aftermarket UCAs on a totally stock suspension to get the caster close to 4? Can you get there on stock? I've had the 60-65 shimmy since new. Multiple balances on Michelin Defenders and it always comes back. It's about time for new tires and was going to have them do an...

My handle ripped off as well. It's also a pain to get to latch in especially one handed. My wife's previous ride, 2006 Highlander, had much better build quality to the cover and worked like butter. Even my previous Xterra had a better one. One of my few disappointments in the 4runner.

I did the same with my 2017, straight from the dealer to Discount Tire and put the Defenders on them. Same results, wheel shakes between 60-70 mph. Several visits back for balancing and nothing works or stays working. Seems to be very sensitive to temperature, road quality and tire pressure...

I'd be curious to see if you find a change putting in the higher octane. Not sure if humidity makes a difference though, looks like you are in Nevada. Here it's 97 degrees with 80% humidity sometimes.

Not sure what the numbers mean on that map but being in Dallas I'm in either the pink or brown area. it's pretty consistent, the closer we get to 100 degrees, the more heat soaked the engine gets and she bogs down. Put in 93 and she bogs no more. I will note this is for big city driving, lots...

I just commented on another thread about this. A few years ago I posted about how my truck bogged down drastically when city driving in 90+ degree temps. I could almost put the peddle to the floor and it seemed to take several seconds to get any type of response. Someone here suggested running...

For the last couple years I started putting 93 in the tank once the temps here hit 90+ degrees. It makes a very noticeable difference in city driving. With regular my truck would just bog down the closer the temps got to 100. Now it just zooms along effortlessly, relatively speaking. I have no...

So how many of you with the AGMs have upped the charging voltage with the GM fuse? How many have simply done nothing but run stock with the AGM? I'm curious if it's really necessary.

I’m trying to decide if it’s worth going AGM for my use. The only reason I am even considering it is we recently got a Dometic CFX3 55IM. It spends 99% of its time in our house as a beer fridge. The rest of the time it will be used for road trips we take several times a year. When we get to the...

Dealer wanted $169 for a battery. 7 year warranty, I'm guessing that was a prorated warranty but didn't ask. I've considered and AGM but there seems to be much debate over whether the 4Runner can send enough volts to charge them. I don't want to mess with the electronics. Don't really want to...

So has anyone put a replacement battery in that last longer in the hot states? Don't want to go the super expensive route but if I can get one to last twice as long I would not mind going $250 or so. What I don't want to do is go the Autozone route where their batteries seem to die every 2...

Yeah I have found in Texas most batteries I have had had only lasted around 3 years. The battery in my wife's Odyssey lasted just over 1.5 years and was replaced under warranty. I was hoping with the good things I've read about the Panasonic that it would go longer, will test it myself or bring...
