Love my 2024 4Runner SR5
I have the 2019 4runner the only thing I replacement was the neutral safety switch
+1 to road force balancing. Toyota service department, Kal-tire, neither were able to solve my 50-60 rattle, or they would solve it temporarily before eventually creeping back up.
I took my 5th gen to a proper off-road shop who specializes in Toyota models and does road force balancing – I haven't seen the issue come back since. Not even a blip!
2013 4Runner with 220k miles. Oil changed every 5k miles, religiously.
Just get an X5 Sean and be done with it, fun channel; you go friend
Thanks you for these videos
I have owned three 4runners… (1988,2016 and 2024)… I purchased the 2024 ORP because it was the last year of the 5th gen. And IMHO the BEST year! ZERO Recalls, ZERO TSB’s….Toyota has Perfected it by 2024…… I plan on keeping it FOREVER… I am sure it will OUTLAST me…. The ONLY issue I have had was the difficulty in balancing my tires….
Thank you for the video, waxoyl for your frame is awesome! I found it lasted the longest.
These videos are a blessing
AND AC drain…on the front right portion of the frame behind the passenger front wheel.
I have 2018 Sr5 never had an issue I do a lot of maintenance myself, these vehicles are beasts, not the nicest inside but the peace of mind is worth it 143,000 miles on it( mostly highway). Can’t complain
Could have left a link to the bearings.
Always great video's – Thanks! Love my 2018 but only one Major Problem – cross bar just below AC condensor they have a foam pad that holds moisture – after only 8 years this beam is now totally rusted! not sure where to go to get it fixed / welded. No other rust on rest of the truck. Have you seen this in your runners yet?
I'm just happy that I don't drive my vehicle in a rust belt state.
