#2 of 6 Just found out . . . by passionatemind Sep 03, 2008 (1:48 pm)
I moved to the home of a great import parts place where I can get a replacement head for about $200. (What is the dealership smoking???) Now, I need to know how to find the specific info on which parts my 4Runner needs so I can get it fixed.   Is there a way to use the VIN to find out?   Off to find out how much it'll cost to tow it home . . .

Your transmission would sell in a heart beat. So would your interior seating, A/C unit, rear end. But you'd have to part it out yourself and have the parts ready for shipment to the buyer. And have the room to store them until sold. You can make it an Auction or sell the parts at a set price. Your lower block could be sold, electric window motors ETC.

Replying to: passionatemind (Sep 03, 2008 1:15 pm) I have a 1992 4Runner, and there was a factory RECALL quite some time ago in regard to certain truck models where the head gaskets failed or were about to.   I brought my 4Runner to the dealership, and they replaced the head gaskets and associated parts for FREE. They still tallied up the cost, and it was way over $2,000.00 for these repairs. I am surprised they are charging you for something that they sent out a Recall on.   Only thing I can think of, is maybe the year of your 4Runner wasn't included. If I can dig up the paperwork on this (which I do have), I can send you more information. I would definitely ask about this. Good Luck and I hope all works out well for you   Regards, --Patricia

Replying to: passionatemind (Sep 03, 2008 1:48 pm) Hi,   Here is a link in regard to the Toyota Head Gasket issue:   http://www.brian894x4.com/V6headgasketrecall.html   Not sure if there is anything you can do about it at this point, but it wouldn't hurt to investigate. As I said prior - - Toyota completely fixed my head gasket problem on my 92 4Runner for FREE. Hope this may help you.   --Pat
