The tail pipe is too short, and should be have a right-angled piece added on the end of it.

Hi, I'm having a huge problem with my 4runner smelling like eggs. The Toyota rep is coming out to talk to my husband and I on Wednesday. I'm sure that he is just going to give me the run around like every other Toyota rep, so I plan on going to arbritration. Do you have any suggestions? I would really appreciate it. Did you get your 4runner repurchased or replaced? Thanks for your time!

ktodd, did you read the messages in this forum? there is a TSB on the 4runner (and on other models) calling for a reprogramming of the ECM (Engine Control Module), and replacement of the Catalytic Convertor.

i have a 2006 4runner that smells every time i drive it, it is so unbarable i get sick from the smell. the dealer keeps telling me to change gas and it is a normal thing for new cars. well the b.s. keeps changing they changed the exhaust front pipe subassy r&r and 2 weeks later the smell is back.$30,0000 truck and they think I am going to smell this everyday you're joking right? furthermore what about the enviroment and health issues this could potentially cause some serious side effects that i don't want to take.
please reply if you're experiencing the same smell with your 4runner

2006 4Runner has same problem

Merolle - I too am having the same problem. Every time I accelerate, the smell is so obvious that I get a big head-ache. The dealership replaced the catalytic convertor but the smell resurfaced 2-3 weeks later. Also, my average mile per gallon has decreased by 2 miles. I'm supposed to drop it off this Wednesday. Probably get the run around. Let me know your status or anybody else having the experience, please share with us. Thanks

You need to make sure that your dealer used the convertors from the TSB. Do you get the odor with all 5 windows up while driving down the road?

Hi...Are any of you still having issues with the sulfur smell, and if so, how have you handled it. I have a 2003 4Runner and have notice the smell as well.
