2003 Coming out of warranty - need suggestions on key maintenance issues

[gill4]

To all:

My 2003 4Runner is about to come out of warranty, and I would like suggestions as to what to check out before it does...I'd obviously like to get any major items done under the warranty if possible.

The car has 45K miles. I recently had to replace the AC compressor motor.

If anyone has experienced minor or major issues from 45K-60K that I might look into I would appreciate the input!!

Many thanks,

Gill4

Normal warranty is 36 months/36k miles --- so are you talking about the 60 month/60k power train warranty? It doesn't cover much that normally goes wrong - your AC compressor wasn't covered was it?

Wow! My 2003 4Runner has 72500 miles on it! Coincidentally, my 4Runner is in the shop right now. The Check Engine, VSC TRAC, VSC OFF lights where all at the same time. Just as I thought, and through the help of this board, I knew it was an emmissions problem. The problem was the catalytic converter, so I'll be on my 3rd one. OEM one was replaced, b/c of sulfer recall.

Other than that, I haven't had any major problems with the truck, other than a random bulb in my dashboard on the drivers side center console went out about 20k miles ago.
