- This Is BAD NEWS For Toyota 4Runner Incoming Owners!
Well, today we have got bad news for Toyota lovers! There have been issues with the Toyota 4Runner, and this might be a concern for you if you own this variant! Well, as we all know the reliability and loyalty of Toyota, the company will try and figure out the solution soon, or maybe they have found it! You're watching “TECH ADDICTS”, so “let's go places” to find out the whole story! Shall we?
Well, the reliability of the Toyota 4Runner SUV may be traced back over a lengthy period. The transmission and the starter are two components of the Toyota 4Runner that are known to cause issues quite frequently, but it's not all bad news. Anyone looking for a long-lasting sport utility vehicle that has enough resources to keep it operating may find that this Toyota fulfills all of its requirements.
One of the most frequently encountered issues with Toyota 4Runners, according to owner reports, is The transmission is a major source of frustration for Toyota 4Runner owners, according to the information that can be found on the RepairPal website regarding the most typical issues with these vehicles. At the time of publication, there were 263 reports of problems with the automatic transmission of the 4Runner not shifting correctly at high miles. This is more than any other typical fault with the 4Runner.
In addition, the issue is stated as a problem that occurs with the automatic transmission at higher mileage, specifically between 125,000 and 150,000 kilometers. It's possible that the throttle position sensor needs to be adjusted, or the shift solenoid could need repair. Both of these issues could be affecting the transmission. Thankfully, addressing this issue typically does not involve replacing the transmission as a whole.
The most typical issue with the Toyota 4Runner occurs somewhere around 206,347 miles into the vehicle's lifetime, and it affects 23 distinct model years. Yet, a number of owners have stated that it can take up to 75,000 miles or more until it occurs.
Is the Toyota 4Runner a respectable sport-utility vehicle?
Even though it has had some problems in the past, the Toyota 4Runner is still a very capable sport utility vehicle. According to the reports of Toyota 4Runner owners, the issue of a check engine light is the second most prevalent complaint with the vehicle. Owners assert that the Check Engine Light is triggered whenever the charcoal canister is unable to function properly (CEL).
According to RepairPal, the evaporative emission (EVAP) system of the 4Runner has the potential to trigger the check engine light (CEL) if it detects an issue with the "charcoal canister purge control solenoid valve or canister failure." The charcoal canister breaking could result in debris being airborne, which would lead to an even greater number of issues. During the course of nine model years, there were around 78 persons who reported having this condition. The typical mileage was 154,785, however, owners reported experiencing issues ranging from 48,900 to 290,000 miles after purchasing the vehicle.
Because the 4Runner has been on the market for so many years, there have been numerous reports of difficulties from customers. This pre-owned Toyota SUV has a number of issues, one of which is connected to a solenoid contact on the starter that is either worn out or rusted. You will not be able to start the 4Runner, but you may be able to fix the problem by replacing the solenoid contacts rather than the starter. Since the year 1990 onward, all 4Runners have had this problem for the past eighteen years. The typical range of mileage at which this problem manifests itself is between 47,000 and 350,000 miles. Should you find it necessary to replace the starter, the price may range anywhere from $442 to $604.

None of this is true
My coworker hit 1,000,000 miles in her 2000 model 4Runner. Her father bought it new and after he died her mother give the 4Runner to her. She said she only did the normal services on time and once changed the water pump. In 960,000 miles the 4WD system run out of fluids and once she changed that the vehicle was good to go. She sold it back to Toyota USA $62,000 with a little over a million miles driven all over the US including Alaska.
That's what 4runner is all about! Love this story!
Toyota paid $62,000 for her million mile 4Runner?
I have 1 million miles on one of my 2000 4runners also this videos is speaking about the 5th gen no generation before the 5th gen
@@WolverineXOXO it's not a waist of gas if the vehicle driven is enjoyed.. your comment is quite rude
Nice!
I swear this video is talking about some truck other than the 4runner. Must have mixed up in editing.
Is this a joke. You will run through 3 GM vehicles in order to reach mileage where the 4 runner starts having issues lol
AINT THAT THE TRUTH!😂
This video is so lame
I think maybe more like 5 or 6 GM junkers.
I have a 2004 4Runner Sport with the 4.7-liter V8. I am coming up on 200,000 miles and have had no problems at all. I know several guys who have older 4Runners and they're all near or past the 500,000 mile mark and still going strong.
Lmao 🤣 there's no issues. It's common for 5th gen with 300k on the original transmissions. The transmission becomes an issue when owners don't change oil properly. The first oil change needs to be done at 20k miles and the next 30k miles later and there after. Change the transfercase oil and lube the shaft.
"The most typical issue with the Toyota 4Runner occurs somewhere around 206,347 miles into the vehicle's lifetime." lol
Damn. My 99 is 202,300 right now. I'm scared. I'm almost there. :( lol
I don’t know what he’s talking about when I see 300k to 500kmiles posted with numerous pictures and videos of many owners. The hater Kool-Aid is real😂
@@a.r4835 would you buy another one, I'm considering one any model years to stay away from
@@oldguysrule-iv7sh absolutely do a TH-cam search for The Car Care Nut 4runner. Love this guy! He has a whole series on the 5th gen but throws in other years info. He's Tha' Man on all things Toyota and more. Let me know what you think.
" The charcoal canister is unable to function properly...during the course of 9 years 78 people reported problems"
😂😂😂
In other words, 78 people over 9 years didn't know better than NOT to force the gasoline pump handle past the full click-off signal while refueling and so eventually FLOODED their charcoal canister with liquid gas thus causing to malfunction.
@@squirelova1815 so this is what happens when people do that? Gtk
@@madellynpineda5020 Yes, unfortunately. If the drivers don't do it themselves some overzealous pump attendant sure will and THAT is why I won't buy gas in New Jersey since most places aren't allowed by "law" to let you pump your own gas in there in NJ. Self Service or nothing for me.
The main reason for charcoal, canister failure is do to people over filling their vehicles with fuel. When the handle clicks at the pump you should stop filling your vehicle. When you don’t stop it over flows into the charcoal canister and over time will q ruin it.
I stopped rounding up my fuel back in the early 2000's on the first vehicle that I owned for business purposes. I didn't trust that I was actually getting my moneys worth it in the long run and I also wondered why I would try to overfill my tank, just to round out the cost. Had no idea that it was actually bad for the vehicle!
Even says in the manual to not overfill the tank.
Amen
The problems mentioned are miniscule vs the problems ford, gm, mercedes, BMW, Korean crap have after 1 month out of the show room.
🤣
Don’t forget the biggest POS - VW…
I agree
As a current happy 4runner owner currently owning 2 3rd gens trucks, I did all of my research before choosing on what gen I wanted, the best for reliability and best looking IMO is the 3rd gen, as myself growing up in the 90’s era as a kid I been seeing lots of 1st-3rd gen back in the day, no doubt the 4th is best in my book for power and performance but there is a memory in my heart that the 3rd gen is my favorite 4runner, don’t like the technology nowadays sticking to old school! 👍🏼
1997 4x4 (daily driver)166,000 miles
1999 sports edition 4wd with 67,000 miles garage kept toy truck! 👍🏼
I’m not even a 4Runner owner, but this video is complete eyewash.
4 runners are the best SUVs out there
I've had two 4runners.
My first one was 2004 limited. I put 300,000 miles on it with regular maintenance and no problems.
I have a 2018 SR5 now. I have had an unusual problem with it. Some of the wiring is partly soy based. A rat chewed my wiring. I always keep my vehicles garaged. I had the wiring repaired and now keep rodent repellent around the engine.
I live in SoCal and see plenty of 3rd and 4th gen T4Rs on the road. Cant say the same for domestic SUVs. Still have my 03 and it runs like new.
What a load of crap….. this is most reliable vehicle on the road today.
Wow.... I've owned a 3rd (96 Ltd 4x4 w/e-locker) gen 4runner now for 15yr. I purchased it of Craigslist for $4500 and had 67k. This vehicle was sitting in storage for 6yrs prior to my ownership. She currently has 170k but isn't my daily driver anymore but works perfectly without any problems throughout the yrs. She actually sits more than is driven but won't get ride of her.
What's the point of this video? There are over a million 5th gen 4runners sold in the US, saying that there are 200 reports of anything on these trucks is pretty insignificant.
I'm not a 4runner fan though, it's mostly outdated and unchanged in the last 10 years, but that lends itself to the reliability side of things.
Get yours before it’s all hybrid
I'll pass on "modern" vehicles, don't want my 4WD subscription running out in the middle of a trail.
"Tech" Addicts... really says everything you need to know about this.
You get a 4runner to explore, not for the fuel economy. That's why they're great for overlanding, campgin, trail driving. I hope that when they bring the new gen 4Runner, they dont limit the trunk space like they did in the mew Sequoia. There's no need to make shelves out of seats. That would only make outdoor activities that much more difficult. If anyone has seen what people do with these 4Runners, they'd understand what I mean.
A couple could live in one a year or so after buying property and building a home
exactly bro, I tell people if you want good fuel economy, get the city version, which is the Highlander. The 4runner if for going off-road, camping and preforming well over the years.
@RoMo Ummm, you cant take a Cruze on the trails to go camping. Plus it has no space for gear, equipment, extra food. If your idea of exploring is simply driving on main roads and stopping at hotels and fast food joints than sure. But owning a 4Runner would be for ACTUAL exploring.
I started yesterday and I saw blue smoke is this normal on 4Runner wit 1300 miles
To bad toyota dropped the 6sp manual transmission, if they put it on the FJ how come toyota could not make 4 runners either a manual? Same engine
I had a 1999 4runner that had still so much to give and no signs of slowing down but I sold it on 2016 because I got a brand new one.
They really had to dig into the weeds to find something unreliable about the 4Runner lol. Try this video with any German car and it will need to be an hour long instead of 9 mins lol. Coming from an owner who has owned 2 German cars. Never again
@@WolverineXOXO the 4Runner really isn’t that bad for its class though. If you compare the fuel costs vs Wrangler or Bronco then there isn’t much of a difference. If you’re comparing 4Runner to hybrid Highlander then yeah of course there’s a huge difference
"4Runner owners run the distinct risk of never encountering serious service issues with the lifetime of their eggshell of a vehicle"
underrated comment
2015 LTD, 150k miles since new. Transmission developed a shudder around 40mph at 130k, did a flush and added Shudder Fixx and so far so good. Also I am on my 3rd driver side doorlock actuator and my 2nd passenger side, and neither currently work. Other than that it drives exactly as it did when I drove it off the lot as new. Overall it has averaged 18mpg
Service the transmission with Amsoil and it will perform like new
Flush or drain and fill?? @@HTTR_FOREVER21
Outstanding yall. Outsatnding !!!! Would love to get my hands on new 2024 4Runner Knaw what im saying pleya!!!! 😊
The only real issue with Toyota 4 runners is Rust ...
And thst occurs in places where you have snow and salt is used on the roads.
Even that can be prevented with regular cleaning with a power wash or under coating.
Im in the market for 4Runner and there's a mechanic out of Chicago who works on 4Rumners for over 10 years now...he has a YT channel. He says the same exact thing... notably to get the underside coating. And he claims he's never ever had to open up the engine on these...which is aces.
This is so true they don't die they just rust away.
I bought my 2004 with a bad head gasket drove it half way across the state bought new gasket timing chain and bolts. Replaced parts and back on road 0 problems. These vehicles are tough as nails. They don't die they just rust away.
His sounds like A.I report 😂
Hmmm. I've owned a 2005 4-Runner for 18 years (bought it new). It's always been SUCH an UNcomfortable vehicle for me (noticed it after my first "real" road trip after buying it). I've been trying to kill that thing for nearly two decades so I can get a more comfortable vehicle and a 4-Runner just won't die. It's THAT reliable. (At least in my experience.) Every time I take it in for an oil change, the dealder tries to buy it from me. LOL!. I literally have had ZERO major repairs since buying it. The body will rust out on that thing long before there will be any major mechianical issues.
When can I test drive the 2024 4Runner? Is it available for 7passengers?
I will be buying "old" 4runner. I HATE hybrids!
What a joke.
They are reliable because they made in japan and not in the US lol😅
Only continuous issue with my 2016 Trail Premium is steering wheel vibration at about 60-65mph. I've changed to 3 different brand of tires so far (within 70k mi.), always rotate and balance (road force balance) at approx. 5k mi., religiously check tire pressure bi-wkly., and lastly... all stock!!! Still though... I can't seem to get rid of this particular gremlin. I know many others have complained of the same, but curious if anyone on here as found a fix? 🤔
I had the same issue. 2023 trd offroadwith nitto grapplers Took it back to toyota and one of the tires needed balancing. I had left it sitting for a whole month which might have caused this. Another thing that was making it worse was the the tires were at 31psi and I didnt know that I can keep them at 36
everytime im watching videos to hype me up on a purchase, one of these vids has to pop up...
Non of the inside video are 4Runners they even show a manual shift that they do not have
It’s still a pure solid truck. Should be a huge issues. These beast can take a beating. As long as u maintain it. It will take care of u, as long as u take care of them
1:46 So why did you show the 5th gen twice if it affects 23 model years?
4runner the best ever ❤. Can say this,bicose work en forestery industry for 20 years.
The real things WE WANT ITS SW4 and HILUX
Where did they get their crack 😂
Does 2023 4runner have hill start assist? If it does? How to operate?
It has in all variants. parts.olathetoyota.com/blog/7249/hac-dac-explained...th-cam.com/video/nbKlQ4TvBFg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=zLfN9HcAV9mCYBuy...I hope these helps.
It's possible without a transmission dip stick the owner didn't realize he had a leak till it was to late. Change your transmission fluid once a year. Ill bet my Chihuahua you can drive past 300 thousand without issues.
Change your Transmission fluid every 50k miles and it will live forever. The rest of this is just petty. I will put the reliability of the 4runner up against ANY vehicle at ANY price.
4th gen Tacoma is coming out not second gen Taco
These are 5th gen issues not 4th gen or 3rd gen or before issues at all
I average 22 MPG with an on frame vehicle, tried and true 5 speed auto, cast iron everywhere. Not unibody. You guys are nuts. Simple is better. If I want infotainment, I'll stay home and watch a movie on my big screen and crank up the surround sound. No wonder people can't drive anymore. I'll buy another one the end of the year before they screw it up.
That auto transmission is bulletproof but shifts abysmally slow. Hope Toyota brings that twin turbo I force max engine for the next generation 4Runner.
I'm going to wait and see the next generation. If it's not amazing, then I'll get one of the last 5th gens, and that should take care of my transportation needs until at least 2050 or so.
1:13 think we found the real issue
Next gen Tacoma will be the 4th generation not 2nd
Or maybe Toyota will try to cover it up until they can't.
This is only because Toyota tells you do not change the transmission fluid and filter it should be done every 60,000 mi in Toyota will tell you don't do it, if you change the fluid every 60,000 mi of transmission will last $500,000
This is a BIG nothing-burger
This brought to you by Ram Ford & Chevy..😂
Hell, I might spring a leak after a few beers. What the hell kind of joke is this video? What competition is the Jeep or Ford?? LMAO
263 reports of shifting issues.... out of hundreds of thousands of vehicles. Now go look at the number of transmission complaints for Chevy/GM. Then look at the number of engine complaints for Ram and Ford.
And you're talking 100,000 miles plus when these problems might start. Ford, GM, Ram...... you'll see all their common problems as early as 20,000 miles.
Being the most reliable doesn't mean it'll never have issues. It means you'll go longer than the competition before issues happen.
This guy is full of craps. “Report transmission issues at high mile” like 500k. The transmission on this 4runner is bulletproof.
Have a second gen still running strong and the 2023 40th anv. Our lasting all other vehicles i and the rest of my family have owned. 😂 take care of ur shit and it’ll last
I dont understand the humor
Can you imagine a bmw at 175k miles! Hahahahaah owner claims car fell apart and said kaput! At 5000 mi
My 2011 SR5 4runner started having problems with it's transmission around 65k and it became a nightmare. Toyota refused to even acknowledge the transmission was bad. I still loved my 4runner and don't think my transmission issues were typical to the product line. But Toyota does have issues admitting when there is a systemic problem with their cars. The transmission is too small for the weight of the vehicle and you need to be careful allowing the truck to slow using the transmission and not the brakes. But the transmission is still too small but does it really matter at this point.
I'm surprised to hear this. I researched the 4runner for about a year before buying a 2015 SR5 a few years back. I did not come across a single comment or trend around transmission issues. If anything, the 4Runner gets praise for how bulletproof the drivetrain is. Unfortunately I had to trade my SR5 in for a van for the family, but I have an opportunity to trade my Highlander for a '22 TRD Off-Road that I might just jump on.
The only issue Toyota got is the 4runner last 300,000 miles plus all the 80s, 90s,2000, still on the road including mine 265k miles still have no plan to buy a new one still running and running , let go place Toyota.
I want to buy a new one but I can't come up with a good excuse to get rid of my 2004 4Runner Sport - plus I know I am going to miss that 4.7-liter V8.
this guy is drunk my 4 runner has 4500000 miles running perfect
Who wrote this crap?!
I traded my 2021 4 runner in on my 2024 4xe Willy’s Jeep and it’s the best decision I’ve made 100%
lol. Obsolete? No way. Nobody wants hybrid cause it’s too complicated and expensive to fix. Get real
No mention of frame rust?
Also mpg improvement from new engine with turbo charging is gonna get offset by the requirement of using premium fuel:(
How do you figure on the fuel cost?
If you drive 100mi at 17mpg you use 5.9g in my area (N.Cal) 89oct is $4.20g = $24.70
If the new turbo gets 25mpg as many think
That same equation yields 4g used at $4.60/g for premium = $18.40
That’s a $6.3 or 25% savings
There’s absolutely not one vehicle that will not experience frame rust if they spend a good amount of time on snow. That does not result in just the 4runnner. And also, there’s a thing called undercoating to protect that. 😂
@@Anomize23Amen
Buy the 5th gen 4runner before they mess it up forever with their EPA required future...
U don’t buy a 5th gen 4Runner for mpg. Come on now, u buy that for fun and for enthusiasts. I would love to own these beautiful models.

Lol junk
Have with that beta male car. Weak af
The CX9 is nice, but there's no comparison between it and a 4Runner. It's a lot closer to the Highlander. I had a Mazda B2000 pickup way back when and traded it for a Tacoma, then ended up in a 4Runner. Toyotas have a way of really winning people over.
@@zzanatos2001 I'm sorry but I just can't justify paying 50k for an overrated, overpriced and outdated SUV that is full of plastic interior and horrible suspension. Not to mention 4runners are gas guzzlers.
Lies
The 2023 4Runner will be the last reliable Toyota that will last 20 years. All the engines with turbo will start leaking with all the cheap plastic and all the electronic garbages within 60k to 80k miles.
Jjjjjjjj me da risa estos comerciales. Y más aún. Recomendar una jeep cherroke. O una Ford cuando sabemos que la cheroke es la reina en problemas tanto de problemas de trasmisión como en problemas de electricidad y plásticos baratos y la Ford otro tareco más que tienen problemas de todo tipo. (( EL ÚNICO PROBLEMA REAL... de la toyota fort runner.....es que se oxida el tren. Delantero...y que es bastante rígida y algo de consumo de gasolina. Por lo demás es un vehículo para toda la vida......te compras un sprays de undercoatin....para proteger la superficie de el shasis y problema resuelto. No engañes más a la gente. Que yo manejo Ford todos los días y lo único que tienen es comodidad por lo Demás un problema. FORD. SIGNIFICA. fabricación. Ordinaria Roturas..Diarias. .y el cherokee. Es el rey de el confort. Pero también es la reina de los problemas de trasmisión y te deja botado por problemas eléctricos. Puro cacharro...remodelado......Toyota AVANZA CONFIADO. y que conste no tengo toyota yo tengo un silverado 1500 HD 2002......pero las nuevas son unos tarecos. No las quiero problemas de trasmisión problemas con el AFM de el motor ect ect. Yo prefiero una toyota four runner. Millones de veces.
Overrated by Toyota / 4Runner cultists.
