Hi everyone,
Finally I bought my 2005 SR5 4x4. I really appreciate all of you in this forum who had given your valuable comments about this truck. So far, I have 150 miles on it already. It feels great on the road.
Here are something I noticed when I am driving on the road since I owned it.
1. On top of the front driver window, I heard rattling noise. I found that there was a screw on the roof cross bar that was loose. I have tightened it down. hope that the problem is solved. I will need to get up on the highway again to make sure.
2. The steering alignment is off. The service department will take care of that for me this Saturday.
3. I smelt something from the engine the first day I brought the truck back home. I was not sure it is the so called "sulphur" smell. To me, it is more like a electric fuse burning smell. It is gone now after 50 miles.
One thing I want to ask the experts here. With regards to changing from H2 to H4. Are you supposed to "feel" anything indicating the 4 wheels has been engaged? I feel nothing except I see the light is on.
Overall, I like my 4Runner.

, but if you had just gotten in the car, you can't turn the heater up that high and have it blow hot air out at you. In fact, I've experienced the same thing you have - the heater knows it's not warm enough, so it won't let you just blow cold air at the "high" setting. When you turn the temp setting back down to 65 or 66, it might be warm enough to blow that temp air, so it lets the fan speed back up. Once the car is fully warmed up, however, you should be able to blow 75 or 80 degree air out at the "high" setting. If not, then something is wrong. Other than that, sounds like it's operating perfectly normal to me.
