Very sad to hear. So, all of you, keep your key in an aluminum case or disable your key when you are home. I am thinking they might have removed the built-in GPS Toyota tracker. They may have also used a jammer, but Toyota trackers work over the internet. You can find these vehicles in the Gulf...
The problem is obvious. This screen does not have a Home screen; it defaults to GPS. You can change it, but it will always go back to the GPS (navigation) screen. I have the same issue, but once it finds a better connection (wireless), it connects to CarPlay.
6th-gen build quality is like night and day compared to the 5th gen. It is way lower than the 5th gen because most of the panels are aluminum, so road noise, shaking, and loose points are the issues.
With the 6th-gen 4Runner, if you have ever owned a 5th gen, you may notice that Toyota was...
Before spending money on upgrading any audio equipment in the 6th Gen 4Runner, I would recommend trying one simple thing first: replace the front dash speaker.
In my experience, this makes a huge improvement in sound quality. In my video, I’m showing the 5th Gen 4Runner SR5 speaker that I...
I attached a picture of the 2026 4Runner's oil filter housing. From what I can see, it's a completely separate housing mounted away from the engine block. It connects through two hoses—one for the oil supply and the other for the return.
This made me wonder: why did Toyota choose this location...
I had the same thought that the 4Runner low beams are not very strong. I had a 5th gen 4Runner, and I used LED bulbs in it, and those were very bright. That was my first thought.
I found something interesting. The 5th gen 4Runner and thats it to point to the ground , and I tried the same...
I honestly hate going back and forth to the dealership. It's a waste of time, and it feels like finding an experienced technician these days is getting harder and harder.
I was really excited to buy the 6th Gen 4Runner, but I'm honestly disappointed. It just doesn't drive the way a brand-new...
Thank you for providing the detailed information. I really appreciate it.
I still have a few questions. How can you view, reset, or manage the trip information and maintenance settings with this unit? My understanding is that these features may not work without the factory radio.
Also, what...
So how do you access the other vehicle settings that are controlled through the radio system? If you remove the original radio, can you still access the trip information and vehicle settings through the instrument cluster (speedometer)?
I don't think it will work.
I was reading through the TacomaWorld forum and found a discussion about swapping the 14-inch screen from the 2024 Tacoma into other Toyota vehicles:

Someone mentioned the possibility of using Tacoma...
I made this short video to demonstrate the vibration that comes through the driver's side floor from the engine bay.
i have 2026 SR5 4Runner - under 700 Miles .
The 5th-gen 4Runner had a similar issue, where owners experienced both vibration and shaking. needle bearing replacement helped...
Many people have reported vibration through the gas pedal at highway speeds while using the stock tires. Did you experience any vibration before changing these tires? If yes, what was the status, and how was the ride quality?
The reason I am asking is because many SR5 owners, including myself...
Once the 500-mile tire break-in period is complete, the tires may behave a little differently.
It's been a few months since your installation. Could you share your experience with the vibration? Has it improved, stayed the same, or gotten worse?
Your feedback will help everyone in the...
Here's your note with your additional point added naturally at the end.
I came from a 5th Gen 4Runner, so let me clear up a few things first.
A lot of people immediately blame the tires or say the vehicle just needs a road force balance. However, most people don't understand that road force...
Your picture isn't very clear. I can't tell if that's a broken piece from the windshield or just a plastic cover.
All of the parts are available on Toyota's parts website, but you'll probably have to pay premium prices because it's still a new vehicle.
I had a 2020 Toyota 4Runner and had the...
I had a 2020 Toyota 4Runner ORP, and when gas prices went up a few months ago, I found that if I kept my speed between 60–65 mph, I could average 23–25 MPG on my 32-mile one-way commute—even with off-road tires and a 2-inch lift. Once I discovered that, I stuck with that driving style.
Now I've...
Agree or not, my point is that Toyota needs to fix its pricing. Their vehicles are simply too expensive for the quality they offer. The quality just isn't there, and the prices of new vehicles,especially body-on-frame models, have become far too high.
I also hope Toyota addresses the short...
One interesting thing about the 6th Gen Toyota 4Runner is that it comes with LED interior lighting from the factory. However, Toyota went extremely cheap on the actual LED modules. Most of the interior lights appear to use only one or two small LED diodes, which results in very low light output...
