  1. Gasoline fumes while driving and after driving - 2025 4Runner TRD Pro

    No, unless I can replicate issues 100% of the time in a way that the stupidest person in world can understand my dealership won't do anything about it. They are next to worthless for troubleshooting unfortunately, while also being the only Toyota dealership within 3 hours of me.
  2. Gasoline fumes while driving and after driving - 2025 4Runner TRD Pro

    I’ve been noticing the same in my ORP the last couple weeks, no idea where it’s coming from either.
  3. Any mods / accessory / upgrade regrets?

    Oh I remembered one more thing I regret based on comments here, I regret getting the anti-glare matte screen protector from screenprotech. I know I’m weird, but in direct light all is does is completely wash out the display making it impossible to see anything. At least with the regular...
  4. Any mods / accessory / upgrade regrets?

    Mostly just interior storage options I saw advertised here. One was a little shelf unit for the glovebox, and another was a small drawer compartment for the underside of the center console armrest. Both were cheaply made and rattled like crazy.
  5. Aspire Stealth Tail Lights, anyone running them?

    They look too similar to the stock TH tail lights IMVHO. Still waiting for someone like Alpharex to make some sexy ones, surprised it's taking so long given how long they've had headlights out.
  6. Ceramic coating on Underground … yes or no?

    Ceramic coating will not do anything for durability, they are literally only a few atoms thin. It won’t do anything against rocks or scratches. You don’t need to wax a ceramic coated car, but you do need to apply a sealant topper every 6 months to a year to keep it functioning like it was when...
  7. Everest Painted Tow Hooks

    The green pops more in person than it does in pictures, I struggled to get that to come across in the photos. I've already had a couple other 4Runner owners in my town (we have a lot of 4Runners here) stop me and ask where I got them painted so they could do the same. Thanks for providing...
  8. Everest Painted Tow Hooks

    Like a lot of people I took advantage of the recent OEM sales to pick up some front and rear tow hooks for my 4R. I wanted a more stealth look instead of the bright red, so I ordered a can of Everest spray paint from: https://www.automotivetouchup.com/ It's too cold for the foreseeable future...
  9. Best color to hide swirls/scratches

    Same, my 22 black Tacoma would scratch if you looked at it wrong. My Everest ORP paint is a hundred times better, barely any swirls or scratches after 8 months with weekly off road driving.
  10. Rumbling Noise from Rear of Vehicle

    I’d check to make sure the spare tire is secure too.
  11. Widow Door rattle / vibration source when playing music and how to actually fix door rattle permanently

    You need to remove the window guide and cover the top of that with something, just adding sound deadening to the door panel won’t fix the rattle.
  12. Trailhunter vs. TRD Off-Road Suspension 🤷🏼‍♂️ (Ride Quality, Stiffer, Rougher)?

    I drove both the ORP and TH before buying, and to ME the TH suspension felt a little bit stiffer than the ORP. The dealer said the TH was created to be ready to accept more weight for accessories people add when overlanding (rooftop tents, internal storage, fridge, etc), so the suspension over...
  13. Toyota OEM Rear Recovery Hook (Part number # PT974-89251-03 and PT974-89251-AA)

    This is what other people here recommended to me: https://store.arbusa.com/snatch-strap-17-500lb-arb705lb/ They also have a soft shackle for a decent price.
  14. Tie-down straps for cargo area - recommendations?

    Stratchits. https://www.dometic.com/en-us/product/front-runner-stratchits-pair Used these with my Tacoma all the time, works great.
  15. How to maximize buying experience at dealership?

    Tell your sales person before it arrives that you don’t want anything added that you didn’t agree to ahead of time. Mine tried adding a crappy paint protection package for $1000 after I put the deposit down for our agreed amount. Got them to remove it, but it’s a tactic a lot of dealerships do...
  16. Questions on fan blower - air not blowing strong?

    It's the opposite in my ORP, turning off the rear vents increases the air flow up front.
  17. Brakes squeal horribly backing out of driveway each day

    I brought this up with my dealer, and they specifically said that I had to wait for the 4Runner specific kits to arrive. Even though they also admitted the parts are all the same. My dealership is the only Toyota dealer within a 3 hour drive, so they know people aren't going to go elsewhere...
  18. HVAC Performance

    I find it works great in summer and winter, especially if you're lucky enough to have the heated/vented seats. Those make a huge difference.
