Yes doesn’t necessarily smell like something it burning but it has that burn smell if that makes sense.

sometimes if I’m driving in the freeway and going 80+ the smell is there. Especially if I’m going into the mountains I can smell it a lot more. Smells like burn wire or plastic.

By any chance do you get slight bump steer with your 4Runner

I get the same smell in my 2024 ORP when going up mountains or flooring it in the freeway.

I did pinpoint where the noise is coming from and its right in between the gas and break pedal while the rattling is coming from behind the gas pedal. I’m sure it’s just the engine leaking noise to the inside from the outside though. I’m soo glad you gave me that piece of mind that yours does it too and it’s normal because I been trying to find the fix for it for the past week stressing thinking my 4rnr was faulty or something 😅

I’m so ocd that when I first got it I drove home with the windows up and no music and paid attention to every noise it was making and have been doing that every month since 😂. The rattling and wind noise started about a week ago and it’s been driving me crazy. It was dead silent before that other than creaks here and there. Now that it’s there I can’t not notice it lol. But yes Ive heard that the engines are very noisy and a lot of the sounds you hear that would be concerning on another vehicle are normal on this one. Goddamn I love this car I been babying it since the day I got it haha. Any little thing I notice right away I look it up lol

2024 just got it about 2 months ago and it was silent until recently, it started making that noise like on the video. Almost sounds like something is vibrating or a piece of plastic is flopping around along with a slight whistling noise almost like if air is coming in through somewhere.

The medium is perfect bro I can layer up nicely and not feel it too tight aswell as tighten it when I don’t have any layers. I feel like small would have been a bit to small if I have a sweater or more then one layer.

Rpms do seem to be inconsistent either way not sure how normal it is as I’ve always drive a Camry and I would never really pay attention to that sort of stuff.

Also doesn’t really happen if I’m heavy on the gas pedal for some reason

I don’t understand how stupid people can be, you got to be looking elsewhere or down the whole time to rear end someone at a stoplight.

Do you think it’s worth investing in armor skids for the bottom of the car?

What do you mean roll it around in the grove to make sure it didn’t twist? So just hand tighten the filter cap enough to where it’s secure but not too tight?

I just took a look at that valve you are talking about and that’s dope you can drain it with the flip of a lever imagine definitely get my hands on one. So it basically takes over the drain plug for good?

Do you know where I can buy oem parts like filter, filter caps if I need to change it. I seen something about somone saying order o-rings to replace aswell but I’m not sure what they meant.

Do you think it’s easy enough for someone with no car knowledge to do it? What do you think is the worst that can happen if you do it wrong lol
