I found a transient rattle that was intermittent in my car. Here's a video of it that could be what you're referring to. This tube is responsible for sending washer fluid to the rear wiper, so if you're only hearing it sometimes the rear wiper moving could be stifling it.
I literally just took...
I’ve been on a quest to remove rattles from my 4Runner and naturally the next on the list was the rear spoiler.
It was surprisingly easy to remove with six bolts along the inner edge. 4 are hidden behind the rubber grommets.
Once these are removed it’s as simple as gently lifting up and away...
I went in to Toyota quoting the TSB that went out. They had the replacement parts in stock for immediate repair. Looks to be a shim kit and a full front brake replacement. No issues with any squealing in post
I have been chasing a rattle that seemed to be coming from the entire rear cargo area at random and I finally thought to look at the rear hatch panel.
If you’re having intermittent clacking and rattling this is the fix.
These highlighted red circles areas are the principle offenders. You’ll...
Diagnosed and pinpointed a rattling sound from my rear seats when the car goes over rough patches of road.
I sound deadened the area with fuzzy Velcro strips cut to size and my rattle disappeared. Could be handy for those who might have the same issue.
It doesn’t. I’d recommend doing it though since it’s tough to get the headliner to pull down enough to route cables to the windshield without removing.
This new 6th gen has been the first vehicle I’ve had where the A/C on startup consistently smells like sour armpit when the car is started. I live in SoCal so it’s not like it’s all that moist here either. Not a huge issue, but definitely of note compared to the host of previous vehicles I’ve...
It’s been about a month since Lasfit did a full scan of my cars interior and they just installed all the floor mats.
Fits the third row nicely and allows for it to come up and down without losing coverage. They let me know that second row seat back coverage is also on the way.
Dropping another quick update for everyone. Consistently getting an average of around 21-22 mpg with mixed driving between socal traffic ridden highways and the hilly Laguna area.
Drove down to San Diego today at a brisk pace between 75-85 mph and got nearly the 25 mpg value. Extremely...
