Hi Tom:
 
I have a 1999 4runner with the same problem... Probably happens only when it's cold, right?? I am told it may be an issue with a thrust bearing connected to the crankshaft... Mine started at 45K miles, and it's gettign worse.
 
I am trying to research the problem and take action, I am really unhappy about this situation. Please supply me with your e-mail and we can chat further.
 
Thanks,
 
-Todd

cold start knock by nedzel

My 2003 V8 has it too. Sure sounds like piston slap to me. I haven't had any luck getting it fixed. My guess is that a fix would very expensive indeed.

How many miles do you have on your 4-Runner, have you talked to the Toyota rep or just the dealer about getting a repair?

2005 Sport 4Runner can't get 3rd row seat??? by 4runrsport1
Apr 06, 2005 (1:40 pm)

I just ordered a 2005 Sport. You can only get the 3rd row seat with a SR5 or Limited, not with a sport model. So I have a need occasionally for a 3rd row seat. I checked the parts to order and install, over $2000! It was only a $730 option. I have also look at some of the aftermarket 3rd row seats online. What I would like to do I get one seat {they split in the middle and hang on the sides} for the left side from a wrecked late model 4runnery. Any one find themselves in this same dilema?

Since it only happens in cold weather and goes away quickly when warmed up, the dealer response was '"could not duplicate."

1998 4runner clock does not work by shanren_2001

I got this SUV not long ago and I just realize that the clock is not working, no display at all. I checked fuses and they look fine. Any other reason can cause the clock stop working?
 
Thanks,

Have you thought of having an oil analysis done to check for engine wear?

I have a 2003 with the loose seat issue. I have had my truck in 4 times for this issue. They replaced the bottom of the seat, then the whole seat. They have taken out the seat and tightened the seat......IT STILL MOVES. All 4 times they tried to fix the seat they damaged my door panel taking it out-I finally gave up on it. My dealer tells me it is like this on all the models, its seat has just too many adjustments. I got the impression I am just suppost to live with it.

Using My Hitch by cbures
Apr 09, 2005 (11:22 pm)

I have a 2003,RWD, SR5-tried using the hitch and found the spare tire was in the way-couldn't insert the ball mount. I have to remove the spare tire to use the hitch. I don't see any messages about this issue-I even have a bike carrier that uses the hitch and had to have it re-drilled so it would work. I am truly not interested in removing the tire every time I want to pull something.
