  1. Over ride car stop when trying to back up with door open

    Same. It's not clear at all. Maybe the OP could try explaining again, with more details. I'm not even sure what "over ride car stop" means. Are you saying the 4runner automatically applies full braking when in reverse with the door (do you mean liftgate or driver's side door) open? Or only...
  2. Rear Dashcam Mount

    I haven't really reviewed much footage beyond the first couple days after the install. The single attachment point via the headliner bracket is not ideal, but since I use a screw and a u-nut, I can cinch it down a lot more than you could if you use the plastic push-in pin to attach the bracket...
  3. Rear Dashcam Mount

    Just to provide a visual on this, here's a pic of the metal bracket that the headliner plug (or screw) goes in to. You can only see the bracket if you pull the headliner out of the way. This is a zoomed pic with the rear hatch open, zoomed in at the top-middle of the rear opening, and also...
  4. First paint dings. Any recommendations or avoids for places selling touch up paint?

    Single stage isn't used much anymore for US cars but it's still used (maybe more for some foreign makes). There's nothing fundamentally wrong with single stage paint (I had an early 2000's vehicle and its single stage white looked just as good as new at ~15 years when I sold it), and I imagine...
  5. Not sure if I want to go through with it!

    There seems to be a high correlation between living in Florida and brake squeal for new 4runner owners. Humidity and/or dew point related, I would guess. Maybe there should be a new brake squeal poll asking if you live in a humid area and have brake squeal vs dryer areas. Are there any 2025...
  6. First paint dings. Any recommendations or avoids for places selling touch up paint?

    That's really bizarre! Here's what shows up for me: So Google's AI contradicts itself on the same question, asked only a few minutes apart. I wonder how often Google AI "answers" contradict based on the location of the person asking (that's the only real difference between them).
  7. First paint dings. Any recommendations or avoids for places selling touch up paint?

    I believe heritage blue is a single stage paint so you wouldn't need the clearcoat if that's correct. See: https://www.google.com/search?q=is+toyota+heritage+blue+a+single+stage+paint&sca_esv=ad651d970e92dbeb&source=hp&ei=vzd3Z6voLbGsur8PgLfToQo&iflsig=AL9hbdgAAAAAZ3dFzxJyEh7wgn%E2%80%A6
  8. Not sure if I want to go through with it!

    None of us know the thought process behind why you signed a fully worked out deal in the first place. Is there something about your 2023 that you really dislike and that is improved with the 2025 ORP? If no, there’s your answer; stick with the 2023 (if you can actually get out of this deal...
  9. Visual reminder to oil change during break in (at 1000 miles)

    I have a serious question, not intended to be snarky. For the people doing these early engine oil changes at or before ~1-2k miles, how come you don't do the transmission oil too? Isn't it pretty likely you'd see the same fine metal debris in the transmission pan's oil as a "normal" outcome with...
  10. Quick reference placard for 12.3" MID settings

    Thanks for updating the thread with the differences for the hybrid ORP. I wonder if the hybrid-only trims have yet another variation of selections.
  11. Quick reference placard for 12.3" MID settings

    Oh, interesting. So you saw something very different from Steve Clifford's video (that video is ~1.5 years old so maybe Toyota fixed its known problems since then). So let's go with what you saw as probably the current way it operates: the Navigation selection for either the left or right...
  12. Help! Electric issues after tint installed

    Good to hear a resolution, but it's interesting. A day and a half seems way too long for that. That almost seems like something that would pop up within the first minute of hooking the 4runner to their scan tool. Maybe something like Carista wouldn't detect or indicate a blown fuse, but if the...
  13. Quick reference placard for 12.3" MID settings

    Could you start a separate thread on these 2 complaints? It's not on-topic for this thread.
  14. What is this thing?

    Yep, the spare tire lowering rod (3 pieces) and related stuff is in there. I'd appreciate if you'd give it a yank to open it, and see if it closes tight when you re-insert the cover. I posted a question about that a while back but nobody responded. Mine doesn't quite close completely when I...
  15. Quick reference placard for 12.3" MID settings

    Yes, the "Navigation" as one of the 16 choices for the left/right screens should have been called "Compass." And there are apparently some (known to Toyota) issues with the compass disappearing randomly and coming back randomly. As far as displaying maps, that will be the middle of the 12.3"...
  16. Rear Dashcam Mount

    Since there are 3 of the push clips holding the headliner in the rear, I guess you could just use one of the outer 2 instead of the middle one? If you mount the camera off-center like that, I guess you have to choose a side to bias the aim towards. I'd probably choose to bias the aim toward the...
  17. Factory Backup Camera is horrible

    Yep, the lift and bigger tires probably needs a recalibration. Compared to a vehicle that just has a backup camera alone, I imagine they had to use a different rear camera (wider field of view, more geometric distortion) in order to stitch its view together with the 2 sides and the front camera...
  18. Quick reference placard for 12.3" MID settings

    I have a hard time keeping track of which of the 16 choices for the info displayed in the 12.3" MID I last selected, and which is on which of the 3 pages, left or right display, etc. I thought it might become second nature through repetition but since any change overwrites your previous setting...
  19. Is your dash display of outdoor temperature accurate?

    Yes, I've found the dash temperature display to match pretty closely to my various outdoor thermometers when the temperature is below say 90*F. Somewhere from the low 90's and higher, the 4runner's displayed outdoor temperature (or more specifically, the thermistor or the thermocouple that is...
  20. First oil change at 500 miles

    It seems to vary by dealer. Some will do at any interval you want, some not. I'm just going to wait til I bring my 4runner in for the first recall repair (statistically for a new model, the 1st recall should be this year some time) and get the oil changed then ;o)
