I took my stock TRD ORP on a short dirt, washboard road today and the entire truck shook violently. The windows and other parts of the 4Runner rattled like crazy. The backseat looked like it was attached to an earthquake simulator.
Is this normal?
Thanks. The All purpose interior cleaner Gel, or the total interior cleaner? Adam's website mentions making sure the gel one doesn't remove the dye from the seats, and I don't want to chance it on a brand new car.
FWIW...me and my wife both have 25 TRD ORP's. Mine makes this noise and hers does not. Not normal characteristics IMO, but around me the Toyota dealers hate trouble shooting rattles.
It also makes the noise if you push pretty much anywhere in the middle of the door panel (to the left of the TRD badge, to the left of the door lock/handle area, and where the switches are. Basically anytime the panel flexes it squeaks. It doesn't make the sound if the window is down though...
So mine is back again. I've already spent 2 months and 7-8 trips to the dealer trying to get this fixed. Toyota Customer Service was no help either. The build quality on this truck is driving me bonkers and I'm really starting to regret my purchase.
Anyone else have this issue and find a solution?
Yes, I have it too. I already spent 2 months and 8 trips to the dealer on another noise issue, so I don't have the energy to argue with Toyota again right now. I'm hoping there will be an official TSB repair for it eventually.
When I test drove the TRD ORP, it felt a little bumpy at times but not too bad. It seemed tolerable and the cool factor of the new 4runner was really appealing. No dealers near me had the color I wanted so I purchased from a dealer about 6 hours away and had it delivered.
The one I bought...
I really don't see how people can say the ride quality is good. I test drove the Limited and TRD Sport Premium as well and they all ride jittery on small bumps in the road.
I've had a lot of vehicles...20 RAM, 23 4runner, 24 Tundra, 24 Accord, 25 Camry. Hands down, the 25 4runner has the worst...
No Pro here, just a TRD ORP, but my experience going from 5th gen to 6th gen is the same. The ride is just harsh and jittery on bumpy roads (even small bumps). I also had a new gen Tundra for a little while and had the same complaint. I wonder if it has something to do with the TNGA platform.
Any cleaner recommendations for the seats in a TRD ORP? I don't care for the shiny look and slippery feel, but want the seats to be clean and smell good.
Wait...I thought that tires with more sidewall absorb road imperfections better and result in a more comfortable ride. If you go with a smaller wheel, you can fit larger tires with more sidewall. What am I missing?
