WTH?! 😳 When you say “no sound from the rear and the sub not working”, are you saying that absolutely no sound was being produced by the rear doors soeakers, the rear lift gate speakers & the subwoofer? Does the Bluetooth speaker even produce sound along with the other speakers in the vehicle...

Yeah I was speaking for those without a skid plate.

Yeah I was curious about that also. I'm not educated enough on the Fumoto valves but I have researched & used the ValvoMax valve on my Tundra. According the ValvoMax FAQ page: “Q: Does any oil get left behind in the oil pan? A: No, the valve is designed to sit flush with the inside of the pan...

Very helpful info. Thank you. I'm a novice at changing my own oil & I'm gearing up to do it soon. I want to be fully prepared to do it the best way & without any problems to figure out. I do know I'm going to replace the drain plug with a ValvoMax like I have on my Tundra to make things cleaner...

Thanks for sharing. Are you using wheel ramps or jacking it up... Or simply leaving all 4 wheels on the ground & shimmying underneath it to do the task?

Thank you for informing those who didn't know how to add their own records onto the dashboard. 🙏🏻 Very helpful information.

I use ValvoMax. Practically the same thing but with a different style of valve. Awesome product.

Not to derail the thread... After doing some research my personal top picks for the money are: 1) Pennzoil Ultra Platinum Full Synthetic (made with Natural Gas) 2) Valvoline Restore & Protect Full Synthetic 3) Valvoline Extended Protection Full Synthetic High Mileage (with Ultra Maxlife...

6thGen1419 might be referring to the first & second oil changes which will almost certainly have engine break in gunk in the oil & at the bottom of the pan.

I had that happen to me but fortunately caught it in the nick of time. I had driven 45 minutes to work & parked leaving the engine running while I ran inside to clock in as I was running late. As luck would have it my co-worker was outside & noticed oil leaking under my Tundra. He immediately...

Why did you use an OEM filter? (Not a criticism...just honestly curious about your choice.)

💯

Yeah mine works also but the volume & performance of it is very weak. The bass in the rear passenger doors is very weak also (granted that could be by design with a crossover because the subwoofer is in the rear though I'm not sure). If I had designed the system: The dash, door & liftgate...

@ Brian Day: Thanks for the like. Good to know I'm not the only one who thinks the system is not designed correctly.

As you are to yours, fellow 4Runner owner. It's okay to agree to disagree. 🤝 I'm just here to gather information from others who own the vehicle, it's options & may be having the same issue(s) I'm having with mine in an effort to resolve what I believe is a problem in the spirit of...

Again, and phrased differently this time, moving the fader to the rear which reduces the volume of the subwoofer is ridiculous. It should not be tied to the front speakers.

I'm seriously considering changing my own oil. I'm an average sized male. I have no lift kits installed so mine is at stock ground clearance. Can anyone here tell me if it can be done properly without the need for jacking up the 4Runner or without using ramps if parked on level ground?

The location of the subwoofer is not in question here. The volume performance of it & why it is tied to the front speakers is what I question. It should be independent of all of the other speakers with it's own crossover options & volume control. As it is, changing the fader to the rear & the...

I agree that $50k is the new median for new vehicles in these times thanks to inflation, government forced requirements & manufacturers stuffing vechicles with more & more technology that may not necessarily be wanted by buyers but are eventually forced to pay for. With that said, this thread is...

Respectfully, you're entitled to your opinion & I appreciate a contrasting opinion as you might be correct but it is evident based on others posting here that I'm not the only one with the same circumstances, experience & opinion concerning the sound system & it's performance. If, and I repeat...
