  1. Trailhunter vs. TRD Off-Road Suspension 🤷🏼‍♂️ (Ride Quality, Stiffer, Rougher)?

    I like the TH for all it is. However, the snorkel had to go, so I added the TRD Pro air intake (OEM). https://www.4runner6g.com/forum/threads/trailhunter-snorkel-sound-noise-music-%E2%80%93-eliminated-no-more.6934/post-85356
  2. Owner's Manual & Warranty Maintenance Guide: 2025 4Runner 6th Gen 📕

    Apparently, there are different 'versions' of the 2025 4Runner Owner’s Manual (possibly hybrid, non-hybrid) or at least updated editions. At the bottom of page 1 of the manual you provided a link too, the manual version is: Owners Manual_USA_M35B85_en. This manual does not include information...

  4. Installing ‘raptor’ lights on grill (Hybrid TRD ORP)?

    MartyMcFly: I'm installing the same Marty McFly: I'm installing the same lights. Did you disconnect the battery first? Seems like disconnecting the battery is not needed since you connected to the Aux 4 switch, that was in the 'off' position.
  5. Differential Fluid Change DIY Guide (Front & Rear Diff) - for 2025+ 4Runner 6th gen

    When it comes to changing differential fluids, it’s much like changing engine oil. The first thing you need to ask yourself is how long do you intend to keep the vehicle? If you swap vehicles at 60-70,000 miles, then just follow the Owner’s Manual “Recommended Service” or “Special Operating...
  6. Differential Fluid Change DIY Guide (Front & Rear Diff) - for 2025+ 4Runner 6th gen

    Great write-up! However, there are differences between the Tacoma and 2025 4runner. Different quantities of oil needed for 6th gen 4Runner: Front Diff w/parttime 4WD – 1.4 qt. Front Diff w/fulltime 4WD – 1.3 qt. Rear Diff (except Trailhunter) – 5.9 qt. Rear Diff Trailhunter – 6.9 qt. (Yes...
  7. 6th 4Runner TRD Pro 1st - 2nd Gear Shift ISSUE

    Update as of December 5, 2025: It has been about 70 days since the mechanic reset the TCM. As previously noted, for the first 10 days or so, the shifting was all over the place but got steadily smoother and the TCM ‘relearned’ my driving habits. The issue is about 90+% resolved, meaning the...
  8. Tire Rotation - TPMS Recalibration needed or not

    This is my experience. I have a second set of winter wheels with new never used Toyota TPMS. I used the settings to indicate that I installed the second wheel set (you can ‘register’ two wheels sets). After I installed the second set of wheels, I received the same message you did – something...

    This what I use: For every 10°F change in temperature, tire pressure changes by about 1-2 PSI.
  11. 6th 4Runner TRD Pro 1st - 2nd Gear Shift ISSUE

    Update - October 31, 2025: It has been 24 days since the Mechanic reset the TCM. For the first 10 days or so, the shifting was all over the place but has steadily got smoother and it appears the TCM has ‘relearned’ my driving habits. As of today, the ‘rough shift, cold truck’ issue appears to...

  13. 6th 4Runner TRD Pro 1st - 2nd Gear Shift ISSUE

    Rough shifting – Cold Truck As noted previous, I'm also experiencing the rough shifting from 1st to 2nd in the morning when the truck is cold. I developed a log (Excel spreadsheet) where I recorded the date, milage, and description of the shifting problem for 35 days. I logged over 20 rough...
  14. Switched from Regular to Premium gas. 4Runner runs better (more power & smoother)

    Naturally aspirated engines, which rely on atmospheric pressure to draw air into the cylinders, are significantly affected by altitude. With reduced air density at higher altitudes, a lower Octane level can be used. This same general statement cannot be made with modern turbo engines. A...
  15. Trailhunter Snorkel Sound / Noise 'Music' – Eliminated No More!

    Thanks for your comments! One thing I did not include in the post is that once you install the TRD Pro intake (4A, 'foam method') you can switch between "music" (Trailhunter) and no music(TRD pro), by simply installing or removing the foam from the snorkel inlet only. No need to plug the TRD...
  16. Switched from Regular to Premium gas. 4Runner runs better (more power & smoother)

    Both the LC and 4R have a 11:1 compression ratio. I have not yet read a reasonable explanation why Toyota recommends 87 for the 4R and 91 for the LC?
  17. Trailhunter Snorkel Sound / Noise 'Music' – Eliminated No More!

    If you like the Trailhunter, but don’t like the snorkel noise, this post is for you. This post builds on many other threads on this and other forums. Here are two options to eliminate the Snorkel noise: Option#1: Plug the Snorkel Steps: Unclip the four clips and move the air box cover to the...
  18. Winter Tires or AT Recommendations

    I have lived in Utah for 25 years at an elevation of 7500’ where we get about 20’ of snow annually. This is my tire setup: Summer tires - Falken WildPeak A/T4W (off-road AT tire). I have used KO3 and others. I spend a little time off-roading in southern Utah on not too friendly roads! Winter...
  19. Hitch Mounted Bike Rack - how to stop auto braking when reversing?

    Using your multi-informational screen (center of gauge cluster), go to settings and turn off PKSB (Parking Support Brake). This will stop the braking. You will still get an alarm but the brakes will not be applied. You can also turn off the alarm, but I don't turn it off. NOTE: The PKSB will...
  20. Not Happy with Toyo 265/70/18 OEM Tires

    Thanks for the info! Had no idea there are two 'versions' of the 265 70R 18 SL Toyo AT 3. That explains my bewilderment when I replaced a OEM tire and the new tire had different tread depth!
