    4runner compression at 11 isn't really regarded as a high compression motor last fillup....been running 91 in the SR5...it does seem to respond to the higher octane but will I keep putting in 91 or 93 ? no way, it runs great on 87 too

  14. Low Tire Pressure Alert

    air them up, or reset TPWS to a lower warning pressure technically you should keep cold pressures at door sticker pressures if using OEM size tires so when winter comes that means add more air so it's what, 36psi when cold ?

    radar is different chipset and antenna, camera is different lensing and chipset, it's always hardware and software which allows the next version of TSS to provide better features and sensing TSS 3.0 camera is useless to TSS 4.0 and TSS 2.5 TSS 3.0 can only use firmware updates to fix or enhance...
