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

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,
shanren

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

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.

The receiver issue was posted numerous times on this forum til about 6/2004. The receiver design was eventually changed, but early 2003 models had the issue. I bought my 4Runner with a manufacture date supposedly using the redesigned receiver, but mine had the old design. Needless to say, I have the same issue, so I always have my converted ball mount in the vehicle. You'll need to have someone cut about 3/8" off the end of whatever you are inserting into the receiver. It's a great excuse to buy a Milwaukee Sawzall 11amp model and do it yourself using the metal cutting blade, or pay to have a modification as you have done. Toyota should have given us a compatible ball mount or a new receiver instead of having us do all the extra legwork. Any aftermarket ball mount will still require a conversion (as you know). My dealer said Toyota didn't get enuf complaints about it to take any action on vehicles with the old receiver design.

I asked my Toyota Dealer for factory glass replacement and he stated that it was no available through the dealer. I ended up with replacement glass from a local glass company. If you know how to get original equipment glass let me know for my next replacent. I have a 03 RWD, V6.

My 2003 4-Runner has this problem also, sounds like a diesel when cold, sounds fine when warm.
Have you made any progress? My dealer changed the serpentine belt (of all stupid things) with no change in the noise.
Thanks
Tom
