  1. Do you change your own oil or have Toyota service center do it?

    I was at a local Toyota dealership picking up some stuff I ordered recently and asked how they drain the oil. It's gravity drain, not vaccum drain. The Service Manager also mentioned that he’s not aware of any local Toyota dealerships using vaccum drain. He said you could also ask to see the...
  2. 2025 4Runner turning on iphone WiFi

    Apple CarPlay uses both Bluetooth (BT) and WiFi. Bluetooth is initially used for the “handshake” to CarPlay then WiFi takes over. This is also why if you're having trouble connecting to a dashcam, turning BT off on your phone will also establishment of a connection to your dashcam as, if Apple...
  3. Why go with 17" wheels over factory 18" wheels?

    My 4Runner came with 20”, winters are in 18”, to compensate, the aspect ratio is adjusted so you get the same rolling circumference for accurate miles/hour. As previously mentioned, you get a softer ride because the sidewall/bead size increase but also… its generally cheaper for the cost of the...
  4. Do you change your own oil or have Toyota service center do it?

    The dealership I bought the Toyota, gives free oil changes twice a year for life, so long as I perform Toyota's recommended service intervals, so I'll be letting them do so until at least until the warranty ends.
  5. Engine Immobilizer - Insurance Requirement

    The 2024 Tacoma is on the Top 10 stole most stolen in Ontario and, I saw it on CAA’s list when I uploaded the proof of installation. The agent said that although the 2025 4Runner is not top 10, its also too soon to make that determination, hence the reason they make it a requirement to have one...

  7. Engine Immobilizer - Insurance Requirement

    Well, i did have a wee bit of buyers remorse for the first week as I sold my 8 year old BMW M Series Coupe to to buy it. 8 years of 0% problems and 100% enjoyment but, I’m glad I did it and I’m really enjoying driving it now…. Much more relaxing and my driving habits have begun to conform to...

    Fingers crossed that I don’t go through what you’re dealing with. Sadly, living “next door” to the Captial of Car Theives is unfortunate for me too!
  9. Engine Immobilizer - Insurance Requirement

    I'm sorry to hear about your ordeal! 😢 For what it's worth, I got mine installed at Stealth Motorsports in Cambridge, Ontario. I suggest if and when you do get an immobilizer installed, call Dale, the owner; he's a really nice guy. Also, better pricing than what you were quoted as well, and...

    Sorry to hear about your unfortunate ordeal. The Ghost Immobilizer is exactly what CAA recommended. I got the same quote for the install cost which, coincidentally, is the same premium annual surcharge on automobile insurance with CAA… go figure! Between Toyota’s (new lack of) inventory...

  14. Engine Immobilizer - Insurance Requirement

    Hi. I'm currently in the process and have decided to order a 4Runner Platinum once the 2026 pricing becomes available in Canada 🇨🇦. My research included getting auto insurance quotes and my insurance provider, CAA, has a requirement to install a 3rd party (approved) engine immobilizer (dispite...
