coming to the source...i have a 05 4runner v8 but its too big for the wife.. she needs to replace her kia POS sorento.. and was considering a highlander.
but shes read about the trans issues several newer models have.
what "older" years should we look at that dont have trans issues..preferable with awd or 4wd
TIA
im located in De, a deer decided to suicide itself 3 weeks ago in mybway to work. we looked into replacing it with a prospective INS payout and its just no worth it as the car is mechanically fine, ive kept all maintenace up, where is best place to look for body parts? LKQ used to be my go-to but called them and they said they have nothing in stock. no local pick and pull yards either. need passenger fender and both passenger doors.
TIA

looking at working for L3 in camden, online zillow shows that the housing market is good for amount of house/space for the $$ compared to florida. but thats about all i see
can anyone give me some additional info on the area? city life? events? local hunting? shopping options? farming community?
last post about camden was 4 yrs ago that ive found. dont want to up and move 1/2 across the country for a job that isnt going to pan out over time or the area isnt what we thought it would be
how is arkansas for retirement? not looking to move again in my older years
ive had a FB business account for my small farm for the last 10 yrs, started getting weird popups last week, telling me to log in on my mobile device.
pick up phome and log open FB and cant navigate. seems that FB (via meta chat bot) is now requiring all accounts to have a govt ID or selfie vid on file for access.
i validated via my email but that was not sufficent. if i dont submit i have extremely limited access to FB and my online sales options are no longer a option.
has anyone else dealt with this?
this is the only thing still holding my old blown turbo in place.. it wont come out. pulled on it.. tapped with brass punch..tried a pry bar.. any suggestions?
for the love of god.. can someone please tell me what tool and proper size to use to remove the hex nut in the heat shield that sits on the far right as you are looking into the engine bay? you know the one that is under the lip in the corner.
ive sprayed it down, tried 6,7,8 mm..torx.. allen, ball.. nothing seems to fit at all.. spent the batter part of 4 hours on this one.
driving to work and a 175 lb deer decided it no longer wanted to live, so it un -alived itself while i was doing 40mph... passenger headlight, passenger side fender, passenger front and rear door all damaged. its a red 06 with 201k on it. all
locally in delaware there are none for sale, insurance said its going to be totalled. how would i get replacement value estimates to ensure i get my actual value for the car?
ive stopped at a few car lots and similiar yr/mileage cars are priced at 6-8k.. but i cant find many volvos
so my steering column went out on my P2 xc70, im ay 200k miles and it was OEM. so i replaced it, got a alignment.
now when going at "high speed" it drives fine, but when at low speed like in parking lots, and starting from a stop, the turning is tighter then usual. its not binding anywhere, system has been "burped" and flushed.
what else could be the issue?
