  1. Trailhunter Snorkel Sound / Noise 'Music' – Eliminated No More!

    I used genuine OEM parts as listed above. I think the dealer would be hard pressed to prove that these parts caused any issues with the vehicle.
  2. Air Lift Air Bags Suspension installed (5th gen version fits 6th gen)

    Zero. I have run these bags on every car. I've owned since about 1999, except my grand Cherokee that had air suspension. I promise you you will not even know they are back there with only 5 pounds in them.
  3. Air Lift Air Bags Suspension installed (5th gen version fits 6th gen)

    With 5 lbs in them, which is what you need to keep them from getting pinched, you will not know they are back there at all. I have them on my JL AEV Diesel with 37's and ran them last month in Colorado on extreme trails and I can promise you that you'll never know they are back there with 5 lbs...
  4. Air Lift Air Bags Suspension installed (5th gen version fits 6th gen)

    It is my It is my opinion only that one valve is easier to get both bags inflated evenly! I would not want to mess with separate valves for each bag, and since I only use mine for trailering, I would never have a need to have the two sides at different pressures. I have had these helping...
  5. DIGITAL KEY: I lost faith in it

    So I don't believe you're talking about digital key. Digital key works on Bluetooth and you have to be very close to your car to make it work. I think what you're talking about is just starting the vehicle from the Toyota app which is different than digital key.
  6. DIGITAL KEY: I lost faith in it

    Update: Dealer took the vehicle and did a reset of the connection on my head unit. It did not fix the issue. The dealer has since spoken with the Toyota Engineer for our region, and he wants to see this error himself when he's in town in a few weeks. I will keep everyone apprised of the...
  7. Battery went dead - now check engine light on

    I will post my experience here. I have been using it for my ARB Fridge Freezer and it seems to be doing well so far. I realize that it's not my best solution for that; I carry a NOCO jump pack as insurance!!
  8. Air Lift Air Bags Suspension installed (5th gen version fits 6th gen)

    BTW, if I did it again, I'd install the valve in the exact same spot, but on the passenger side, so hot exhaust isn't blowing on me when I'm filling it! Etrailer said they've move it for me, but I haven't had time to take it up there yet.

    No issues on trailhunter. they're working great. Installed by eTrailer in St. Louis MO
  10. Battery went dead - now check engine light on

    Thank you for that info; it's always good to learn from someone that knows more than I do. I appreciate it.
  11. Battery went dead - now check engine light on

    From Chat: Some AGM designs have charging requirements that differ from flooded batteries, but the Duracell/East Penn AGM does not require an unusually high vehicle charging voltage. East Penn specifically approves it for conventional automotive charging systems operating around 13.8–14.4 V...
  12. Battery went dead - now check engine light on

    I have one of these Duracell's in my diesel Wrangler; have also used them in my old camper (pre-lithium). And while they are no odyssey, they are way better than the OEM lead acid battery. My battery wasn't dead; I just wanted an AGM, so I don't need to have the OEM tested. The 4Runner will...
  13. Battery went dead - now check engine light on

    New battery installed. Had the leads off for at least 30 minutes. Codes did not reset. Had to use my Bluetooth OBD2 tool and Carista to clear the codes. I'm glad this lead to me replacing the battery! I'll be happier with an AGM.
  14. Battery went dead - now check engine light on

    I am headed to Sam's Club right now to buy this Duracell AGM battery. I know why it died last night but I don't think that OEM battery is very powerful. I just went by the dealer and he said they would charge me $175 to clear the codes since the battery went dead on my watch. So much for being...
