The Drive-Start Control Malfunction came up in my 2025 TRD ORP non-hybri twice today. We are out of town and were out shopping. It came on, and I tried turning the truck off and back on. We went to a local dealership. I looked it up while waiting on the service doors to open and saw some had...

As in, the dealership replaced them after your report?

I just ordered a set from a different manufacturer, no offense to Banks though. It’s my understanding these are an excellent choice. I’m going to have a Downpipe, more efficient intercooler and the charge pipes all installed at the same time. Pushing for (or chasing) that last 10%!

Almost everything was in consideration for me, but it all boiled down to reliability and longevity. I like the appearance and short term (70,000-100,000 miles) reliability of almost everythIng on the market. While this platform has been updated, the engine isn’t new. It’s been around for a...

I laughed, but you aren’t lying! Get used to this technology, because in 3-5 years, you’ll be setting your destination in your map, and the car will drive itself. These vehicles can adapt to that new technology.

I replaced my cabin filter just shy of 15k. It looked horrible.

I was very impressed with the results. I couldn’t even get out of the parking lot without noticing a difference!

It’s happened to me as well, and it’s while using CarPlay, specifically the Waze app. I believe it‘s a passive form of advertising.

Ditto. Not much of a problem for me either. I live in rural SC with lots of farmland and dirt roads on my commute.

We have Gunner kennels for our dogs. We had a dog that passed not long ago who was skittish, so we loaded her in the kennel then in the 4Runner. Our remaining dog can be picked up quite easily. I’ve always tried to have a way to load crate first or load dogs into crate that was already in the...

Not seeing anything like this with 13k and taking it to the SC coast quite a bit.

ChatGPT works well too. You feed it the file an ask it questions.

Congratulations, MagnaFlow! I like the exhaust you have developed for the 4Runner. If anyone has an upgraded catted downpipe with the MagnaFlow exhaust, let’s hear some sound clips!

I test drove a 25 LC, a 5th gen 4R and finally a 25 non-hybrid 4R before I made my decision. The LC just didn’t feel right. It was as if I was driving a bread truck. I didn’t really want a hybrid yet, and I didn’t want to use the higher octane fuel unless I wanted to do so. It was more than...

Man, I couldn’t have said it any better! Shell is my goto. The only difference is Costco is my alternative.

It includes a catalytic converter, so it’s expensive.

New technology and developments have brought these battery powered devices a long way. Fortunately, what’s horrible one day will result in changes to remain competitive. The Green Works that I have is horrible. It leaks chain oil about as fast as you add it and will throw the chain at the...

The DP is $1,500. The performance gain, paired with other mods and compensating tune should be significant. Estimates I’ve found in my research and limited knowledge indicate 340-370 HP for non-hybrid, but @JustDSM will have a much better idea than me.

I don’t have the exact dimensions, but I did place it on the floor by a yard stick, so you can get an idea about how big the Downpipe is. On another note, there’s a clip from CAMTuning with a cold start of a different brand of DP and a aftermarket exhaust. If this one is even remotely similar...

I’ll agree. This is one mod I’m not sold on. I’m certain I’ve seen another thread or a video on this topic. A guy installed one on a 6 gen, and he reported back that he did not see any benefit.
