2004 v6 4wd with 20,000 miles. I bought it with 4890 miles on it. Oil and oil filter changes once a year. I am looking at changing the transmission oil and cooling fluids this Spring. About 85% of the mileage is stop and go driving in an urban setting. Right now, I am experiencing low mileage and will test at the next fillup. I was wondering whether if I also should have the mechanic check the fuel injectors? If so, then is on the vehicle cleaning ok or should I go with off the vehicle cleaning. I have only used 95 octane gas. What does the toyota mechanic check when low mileage is the complaint? Should I also consider other maintenance?

Hello everyone, New to the forum. My wife's 02 HL's CEL, VSC & TRAC lights came on after a wash after a car wash sometime ago. After a couple of days, the lights went out so I figured that a connection got wet and caused the lights. Buy a pressure washer about three weeks ago, and wife decided to wash the HL with it. Lo and behold, here they are again on the dash. After two weeks, I disconnected the battery and restored. Lights went away. After a few times of driving, they are back on and the SUV cannot be inspected. Any ideas of where a connection might be, that could cause this so I can begin to troubleshoot? (The engine compartment was not opened for the wash) Thanks for any replies.

Replying to: thattrailerguy (Sep 10, 2007 1:23 pm) 13 -- No IGf Signal 42 -- No IDL or NSW or A/C Signal 43 -- No Speed Sensor Signal. Jumping out the plug for base timing doesn't work. (Same effect as not jumpering). I dont notice very much change in truck RPM when I connect the jumper either...seems a bit strange. I Know the timing is "close" because otherwise the truck would run like a real turd rather then rough, hesitate, poor gas mileage and maaad vibration at about 110km/h

| I have a 1999 4runner limited, how do I know which tire air pressure to use? The value that the tire says, or the value written inside the driver door area? Sorry if it's a newb question, I wasn't sure as both values are pretty different. (The one on the tire is a lot higher). | |
I am looking to buy a '06 4 runner. I looked at one available from my favorite dealer. Test drove it and stopped in a parking lot to check it over. Notice the latch for the rear door was rusted. Tried to check the oil and the tube that holds the dip stick was rusted and could not get the dip st. out. Read a couple reviews about water getting in somewhere and getting the rear rugs soaked. They had no answers or satisfaction from toyota. Any help GREATLY appreciated.
