@@VikingsGarageWhat do you recommend for someone living in the southern part of the rust belt (MD) as far as rust prevention? Only saw a little rust on the welds on the frame but I want to prevent what I can. Figured using Fluid Film a few times a year on these areas. Thoughts???

What people don't realize about the 4Runner body style is that other manufacturer's have maintained well like body style's for year's with examples like Cadillac,Mercedes,Volks Wagen,Chevrolet and the list goes on. I have no complaint's about the body style because it has always maintained a Masculine and Capable Appeal that keeps Driver's in line waiting to buy one!

Regular oil changes/tire rotations and a complete tune up/flush by Toyotas maintenance schedule and this incredible truck has not had an issue ever. I am OCD so i keep it very well maintained but this truck has been nothing but amazing.

After driving a 3rd gen for 20 years, I bought a 5th gen. It feels like a boat compared to the 3rd gen, and even after 6 years I never have grown to love how it drives compared to the 3rd gen. Only 20K miles on it since I continue to drive the third gen whenever I can. (that's when its cool since the air broke down long ago)

I just stumbled across this. I feel like I could really add to it. I own two Toyotas. My daily driver is a 1985 4wd pickup with just under 300k on it, and my back up is a 1990 4runner with just under 200K. I have owned them both since new, so I have a long history.. At this point, rust is my biggest enemy for sure. I've had to replace the entire exhaust system on both a couple time as they just rust away every decade or so. (I'm in Alaska) The 22re engine in the truck has proven to be almost bullet proof. The 3.0 in the 4runner not as much. Thanks for posting as now I have a couple other things to watch for.

Here’s a tip: after owning the 2014 4Runner from new. The AC died in summer of 2022 @ 75K miles. After servicing three times with a refrigerant charge and adding a Dye during the third attempt. I identified the leak on the upper Condenser (the silver mesh thing when u look through the front grill above the front bumper) rotted out. The OEM Condenser was $400 through Toyota (Denso). U can get other brands from other makes and sellers. I generally use OEM, coz I have a shop acct. Just note if u are replacing your Condenser it’s easiest to remove the mount brackets drop the Condenser down through the plastic cover hole fwd of the gravel shield. Clean the radiator grill of blockage when the Condenser has been removed. Replacement of the Condenser was about 30 minutes and recharge /vacuum was :45 minutes. When the AC refrigerant is properly charged; it’s a freezing 47F output! Good luck and stay chill.

At 98k developed a “flutter” in my steering wheel only during acceleration between 35 and 40 mph. Had all 4 tires check balanced and all was good. Had a Toyota mechanic test drive vehicle and could not recreate. Comes down to how hard you accelerate. Had Toyota Mexhanic glycol test my transmission cooler and found a leak. Long story short, failed transmission cooler leaked coolant into transmission causing a transmission failure. New transmission was required. I’m sure my vehicle was an anomaly but I had an extended warranty which covered majority of my repair. Still love my 5th gen and plan to drive this vehicle forever. Wanted to share my experience and symptoms.

I owned my brand new 2013 Toyota 4runner SR5 since 2012. I have 135k mostly highway mileage. Since working from home due to 2020 Covid, I drive once or twice a week to stores and run chores. I never had any major issues. Just regular maintenance, one time battery replacement, brake replacement, and one new set of tire replacement from the original. I love my 4runner! Waiting for 2023 to see if it's worth giving up my 2013 Toyota 4runner! It's reliable, dependable, unbreakable, and wonderful to drive on and off road. I guess the only few things which you mentioned is the driver's seat. I have the same issue too. Another one is the steering wheel wearing out on the left side. I drive using my left hand on the steering wheel most of the time. Thought about buying a steering wheel cover. Another one, are my headlights are beginning to not look so clear. It's like some white coated are building up around inside the headlights. Not a sure what it is. One nice feature that I noticed on 2014- maybe to 2022 is Toyota stop building the puddle light on both side mirrors. Mine SR5 has it and this helps when you walked to the vehicle at night with hardly any light.

1st 4runner was a 2015, then traded in for a 2021 TRD ORP. No issues on both! Change oil every 8Km and thats it. Starts everytime on cold -20 to -40 on harsh Canadian winter. Done countless cross country trips in US and Canada. Gone to places where only few capable 4wd cars have been and "returned" safely. Very comfortable for both driver and passengers on long trips. But this SUV is definitely not for millenials and soccer moms who needs fancy interiors, latest tech/gimmicks and trendy exteriors. Some fancy after market accessories are available though whihc can be installed to make it look more mean, bullet proof and menacing.

Thanks for sharing your hands on experience with the problems that these Runners have . I’m a proud owner of a 2018 TRD Off Road Premium purchased brand new and I love it ! And still do .. There’s 33,755 miles on it now ,5 years old & I have already had some of these issues , 1 - The front brakes was a issue from the start & It (wasn’t covered) because I had it undercoated and they said it got on the pistons. (I hate the nose dive under heavy braking) (Bilstein struts someday) 2- I did have the intake manifold sensor problem from rodents covered by my car insurance ($2400) luckily 😅 3- I’m starting to notice the blemish on the trim that you mentioned, also starting on the dashboard . (I use complete weather tech in all windows) ,it’s still crazy hot in there .. but they will help keep it from fading away.. I’m doing regular maintenance and will keep an eye out for these other problems. Next will be brake fluid change, I was told that I don’t need to do differential’s, transfer case ,transmission and antifreeze unit 60,000 . Is that correct ? Let me know what you think….

Thank you for this video!! May 2020 I bought a brand new VW Atlas (first new car ever) and said it would be my long term car… fast forward to December 2021 and it’s sitting at the dealership waiting for a new engine with 19000 miles on it. I guess the atlas has an issue with head gaskets and in my opinion they didn’t fix it correctly cause 6 months after they fixed it, it’s needing a new engine. So here I am in the market for a new car… no one wants to buy in this market but here I am😢. I’ve been eyeing the 4Runner, but have been so afraid of what costly fixes they require and this video was so helpful with easing my anxiety of getting a 4Runner. I keep hearing about all the complains that it doesn’t have all those cool tech things that my atlas had, but at the end of the day all those things are, are more chance for things to break! I feel a lot more confident buying the 4Runner now!! Thanks for this!!!

Recently purchased a ‘21 SR5 w/47k miles; pavement princess out of Southern California. Now, it is in the middle of nowhere Utah and salt is used liberally during the winter; however, we do not have the humidity during the summer months, which is a help to the frame. Friends with ‘97 Taco, ‘04 Runner, ‘06 Tundra, ‘07 Runner, ‘07 Sequoia, ‘18 Runner, ‘19 Runner, zero frame issues and no film applied. What I have done for years on my other full-frame trucks is run them on a lot of dirt roads (which is the reason we got her and, I drive like a grandpa……wait, I am one……so as to keep the suspension repairs to a minimum), so the under carriage is coated with a heavy layer of dust, not mud. This acts as a protector to an extent. Then come spring, two runs through the carwash with undercarriage wash, and a summer full of dust in preparation for the next winter. The only issue I have is mine sounds like a diesel; lots of lifter noise which, inside the cab or near the bottom of the door below the A-pillar, sounds like an SBC with a rocker knock. Under the hood, sounds of normal whir from the chain and tick from the injectors and lifters; resonance down the exhaust is my guess. Using a high end Group 4 oil; online search indicates this can exacerbate the noise. I’ve had diesels before; as long as she lasts, I’m good. Thanks for your good info. Cheers and success!

Man I really want a 4 runner for my retirement vehicle. The only think that scares me is the rust issues . I live in the detroit area , lots of road salt . They also put down calcium chloride on the dirt roads up north in summer. Thats a double dose of pain for the undercarriage.

Thank you for sharing, I totally forgot the radio update. Didn’t see it as an actual issue, but I get it. I’ve updated my radio 3 times during my ownership,just because I can. The radio has never given me an issue. Front bearing, very interesting . Never seen one go bad.
@mrbaker8841
@mrbaker8841 2 года назад
@@VikingsGarage I only updated it because it started rebooting periodically. Front bearing would be an obsolete TSB as they've changed the remedy to an updated diff. Unfortunately I put a diff in it before the update and had to do it again due to noise. Luckily was still under powertrain warranty.

I am now on my 2nd $Runner. The 1st was the 2016 SR5. I loved it until there was an accident from a Driver turning left in front of me. The damage was repaired mostly with the exception of what was not obvious at the time. I hit a Compact Car that spun like a Top that sprouted all of it's Air Bag's! I needed to get a 4 wheel alignment about every 6 month's and couldn't understand why??? I had 2 Dealership's look deep into the issue but never told them of the accident. The Lower Right Tie Rod's had been been ever so slightly, but it was just enough to where even using heat would not loosen it. The option was to have the entire assembly on that side taken out removing a splined shaft that goes into the engine. The job was $1500.00 from1 Dealer and $1.900.00 from the other Dealer that I trusted more from year's of previous experience. I opted for a Trade-in and now have the 2023 TRD Off Road Premium. If it wasn't for the accident, I would still have the other one,but I have found that I love this one even more! Rust Proofing is a must! I saw one yesterday that had a lot of see through rust on the lock of the rear hatch! I had no idea that rust could happen that way! This one will also be Rust Proofed!

Yoda should have put a grab handle on driver's side A pillar. It would help w seat wear sliding out (especially if lifted truck) another problem with all 4runners is they are slow. #1 fix is to drive it in manual sport mode and shift it later in the powerband it runs soo much better. Another fix is to add the Magnuson/trd supercharger its makes it a 350hp less slow vehicle and is totally worth it being able to out drag new 6.2 liter GM LS trucks and get 14mpg on 33" rubber. Love mine. If you can afford posuer rooftop tents and glamping overland gear you can get a supercharger instead and truly enjoy driving the heavy tank around.

My 2018 is too new with only 25,000 mi for any of that stuff but I have a couple of comments pertaining to my 2004 with 240,000 miles. 4th and 5th gens are mostly identical so my experience applies to both. 1. Intermediate steering shaft. Hell it's pain in the ass to remove! Yes, because of corrosion. I replaced it recently because the truck started wondering all over the road at high speed, and everything else checked OK but you can't even check the damn shaft without removing it. It turned out to be OK (RATS!) but I damaged it during teardown. It turned out to be a not tight (not loose, just not tight all the way) rear trailing arm bushing bolt. 2. Never had issues with heat shields 3. Yes, did replace front calipers 5-6 years ago. Bought AM for $180 a pair but (BUT!!!!) they - unlike OEM - have spring snap rings around lower piston dust boots that supposed to prevent water - and subsequent corrosion - contamination. So far so good. 4. No seal leaks anywhere On top of the above stuff, replaced AC condenser, radiator, a couple of O2 sensors, and one ignition coil. The latter five years ago. Bought two just in case because urban legend has it that if one goes, the others follow. Hasn't happened so far. All-in-all, all repairs cost me around $500-600 because I never let anyone touch any of my vehicles. Relevant detail: the truck did go through Chicago/Denver/SLC/Idaho winters, no California.
@VikingsGarage
@VikingsGarage 2 года назад
That’s a perfect example to how solid this vehicles are. Thank you for sharing with us your experience. Yeah that shaft can be a pain to confim failure, I usually go by feel.

Fox shocks for the 19 and 20s is a big one. I picked up a 19 trd pro 31k miles. Dealer sold it to me with a non compressing rear shock and the front two struts had the design flaw where they knock like crazy. I had to bring corporate down on the dealership to get things repaired. I am pretty sure the dealership shop manager who " certified it " just didn't want to admit they were wrong. The tail lights seem to get moisture in them which toyota tries to claim is normal. I ended up replacing them with after market.

The car seat wear is typical of any vehicle, especially ones that ride high. I have a front grab handle that I use to try to minimize rubbing on that area whenever I get out of my FJ Cruiser, but not every car has a grab handle. My RAV4, which rides lower and has no grab handle, has worse seat wear. I wonder if there's a better way to keep these seats maintained because it is an issue in most cars. Another great vid, keep em coming.
