Replying to: canddmeyer (Jun 18, 2006 10:32 pm) "doesn't bother me as much as the road noise and choppy ride with the base SR5 suspension, neither of which improved when I got rid of my Dunlop's."   The only thing that will help the ride (other than changing suspension, is a passenger car tire. I know in the stock size there are not any (passenger) tires for the 4Runner. The Revos, while an excellent tire, will not help the ride.
#11328 of 11422 Louvers in the front right wheel well? by mt_flightsuit Jun 22, 2006 (5:46 pm)
I noticed today when washing my 2006 4Runner that it had louvers exposing the wire on the fog lamps and I could see the ground through my fender well. What on earth is the purpose of these louvers? What are the engineers thinking on this design?

Replying to: mminkous (May 05, 2006 4:13 pm) 06MY & 07MY 4Runner with factory navigation includes a 4-disc CD changer that can play MP3 or WMA encoded CDRs. Plus you can initiate a call via an approved Bluetooth cell phone from the steering wheel! Even if you cell phone is in your purse or gym bag you can receive or dial a call with both hands on the steering wheel!

#11331 of 11422 Downshift Lockout Speeds for 4Runner? by ccarofknowldge Aug 09, 2006 (1:15 pm)
Replying to: chorizogrande (Sep 23, 2000 2:26 am) Can anyone tell me the "Downshift Lockout Speeds" (speed above which the transmission will not downshift into the particular gear) for 1st and 2nd gear in the 2006 4Runner?   This is not the same as the maximum speed in gear. It is always lower, but different Transmissions set different limits. Does anyone know the values for the 2006 4Runner?   TIA.
#11332 of 11422 Tire Rotation by devlopper Aug 23, 2006 (11:06 am)
2006 Limited 4WD V8   I'm wondering why the owners manual recommends keeping the spare tire only on the right side of the vehicle with each rotation? I'm used to the "full" 5 tire rotation with all previous vehicles.   Thanks! Replies to this message: kjack100 (Aug 27, 2006 4:44 am)

Replying to: devlopper (Aug 23, 2006 11:06 am) I wouldn't use the spare at all in a tire rotation. I'd only swap out the fronts with the backs, keeping them on the same side. You're going to need four new tires at some point anyway.

I own a 2003 V8 limited 4runner. My first problem was getting front rotors. When my parts place asked what wheels I had I told him I have 17" wheels. He proceeded to give me rotors that were 13.25" diameter. The ones I have are 12.6". Supposedly these are for a 4runner with 16" wheels. We finally figured that out, but has anybody had the same problem? Second, my truck has only 46,000 miles on it but has seemed to have ruined the drivers side front wheel bearing. Seems a little premature. The factory warranty is finished, is there any chance in hell to get them to warranty this. To be honest, its a shame for a 41,000 dollar truck to have this problem. I do tow a boat, but I have only done it 3 times. It has a combined weight of about 4700 pounds. Thanks Replies to this message: mike805 (Sep 12, 2006 5:22 am)
#11335 of 11422 V6 vs. V8 by dzuba Sep 06, 2006 (3:39 pm)
Looking at an 06 ($2500.00) under invoice - Limited loaded. I have heard the V6 is a dog..............true?   I'd rather the V6 with the price of gas, but need some advice/help?   No - I will never tow with this ride. Comments on the V6 vs. the V8 - I do a lot of highway driving!!

#11336 of 11422 Re: V6 vs. V8 [dzuba] by ponytrekker Sep 06, 2006 (3:59 pm)
Replying to: dzuba (Sep 06, 2006 3:39 pm) I have heard the V8 and V6 get similar mileage.   I have the V8. In strictly city driving, suburban hills, NYC traffic, averaging about 30 MPH I get about 17MPG on regular gas. On a recent long highway trip I got 20.8 MPG averaging about 58 MPH. Both numbers are according to the trip computer which is about 5% optimistic. The V8 also has great passing power.
