I’ve owned several 4Runners over the years, and the 6th Gen has had its share of quirks. One major issue I often see is with the transmission. Regular fluid checks are key to avoiding headaches later!

Absolutely! I recommend changing the transmission fluid more frequently than the manual suggests. It can really prolong the life of the vehicle.

Another common problem is with the suspension components. Keeping an eye on wear and tear can save you a lot of trouble. Consider upgrading to heavier-duty shocks if you do a lot of off-roading.

That’s great advice! I also suggest checking the bushings and ball joints regularly.

Don’t forget about the electrical systems! Some owners report issues with the infotainment system freezing. Regular software updates can help prevent this.

You’ve got to be kidding me! To think I might have to deal with an infotainment system that freezes? That’s the price we pay for fancy features, I guess!

True! And don’t forget to keep an eye on the battery as well; electrical issues can often stem from a weak battery.

I’ve also dealt with brake issues. The rear brake pads tend to wear faster, especially if you’re towing. Keep some spares ready just in case!

Good point! I had to replace mine just after 30K miles. Inspecting brakes often is definitely a must!

There’s nothing like the feeling of driving a solid 4Runner, but keeping up with maintenance is key! I prefer a DIY approach, but for complex issues, a trusted mechanic is a lifesaver!

The 4Runner does have its quirks, but it’s all part of the adventure! If you ask me, I wouldn’t trade it for anything! Just make sure to stay on top of those maintenance tasks.

I’m really excited about the 2025 4Runner! For performance, consider upgrading to a complete suspension lift. It enhances handling and gives you extra ground clearance for off-roading.

Great suggestion! I’ve also heard a cold air intake can do wonders for engine performance.

Has anyone considered aftermarket bumpers? They not only protect the vehicle but also give a rugged aesthetic. Looking for recommendations on brands though.

I’m all about aesthetics! I recommend checking out Ironman 4x4—they have durable options.

Upgrading the infotainment system can really enhance functionality. Has anyone explored custom audio setups for the new models?

18

Absolutely! I installed a Pioneer head unit in my last 4Runner and it was a game-changer!

Considering a roof rack too! It adds functionality for carrying extra gear when going on adventures. The right one can also look sleek on the 4Runner.

I hear the Rhino Rack makes a solid product. Really boosts utility without compromising style.
