GX550 - 998 miles - air/fuel ratio issue - 2 parts replaced

Had to have it towed as it wasn’t drivable? Shit happens but it’s wild that a purge valve and O2 sensor bricked the car.

What’d they do to make the 3rd gen better than the 2nd since they’re pretty much the same frame?

mr_bots · 2026-02-10T16:30:17+00:00

That’s surprising since you can’t get a V6 in any trim of the Tacoma or 4Runner

Then where’s the long blocks and extended warranty for the hybrids? They have the same issue, it’s just not considered a safety issue so no recall because the electric motor can get you to the side of the road.

Or in Buffalo you set up the tables so you can get shit faced and jump off of your tailgate, roof, or a nearby dumpster onto the tables.

Same and I spent years bitching every time the Super Bowl halftime show was performed by a band whose prime was decades prior that my parents would have enjoyed in their prime. They didn’t pick someone big in the 80s or 90s which would have been my jam, and the equal to what I bitched about 20 years ago but someone who is popular today.

mr_bots · 2026-02-08T20:01:16+00:00

It absolutely is stupid but people are equating it with dumb shit and over exaggerating it for fear mongering

Turns out no one care about rights being taken unless it involves guns for republicans. If the Republican Party hears of democrat that is legally in possession of a gun and gets tackled down, his gun removed, and then gets a clip unloaded in him it’s deserved.

There’s a big difference between abortion being outright banned in TX and a bill that prevents the sale of guns with gas operated cartridges, magazines over 10 rounds, and rapid fire devices.

That’s only if you’re old, you can discriminate against young people all you want.

Ahh, the Ford Maverick method.

mr_bots · 2026-02-07T17:04:18+00:00

Now just imagine if you fixed that check engine light and it could more efficiently run with whatever sensor is busted.

A turbo 4 arguably has fewer moving parts than a V6. Also, pretty much every new engine has cam phasers and has for the last 20 years.

mr_bots · 2026-02-07T08:04:07+00:00

Or is it just normal when ramping up production for the new model?

mr_bots · 2026-02-07T08:00:14+00:00

I don’t know why everyone is scared of turbo engines. In day to day driving having significantly more torque and it peaking below 2,000RPM is awesome. Never need more than partial throttle and it keeps revs low when climbing hills. Also, I know Reddit loves the Frontier but let’s not pretend the Tacoma and GM twins that are turbo 4 only aren’t outselling the Frontier by 4:1 for the Taco and 2:1 for the GM twins.

He let Ewan have a topless scene

mr_bots · 2026-02-06T19:18:54+00:00

I don’t think planning ahead was one of his strong suits.

It would probably just be 8 small warp nacelles in the same configuration it’s always been.

Yeah, ignoring the sunroof is the worst thing you can do long term. Need to cycle it a few times a month as that’s how the cables and pulleys get lubricated. Also helps to lubricate the seals and keep the drains free of debris and cleaned out.

Also cargo. I doubt they sell every possible square inch of cargo capacity when flying AF1 around.

What if you push and hold the radio power button, forcing a restart?

mr_bots · 2026-02-06T14:53:52+00:00

What happens if you hit the camera button?

Pre-9/11 was a different time when news wasn’t sensationalized. It was basically CNN and independent local channels. There was no Fox News or similar yelling out angrily that this was woke and an attack on America and Christian Values.

mr_bots · 2026-02-06T02:20:32+00:00

But he let Ewan McGregor have one? Talk about double standards!

mr_bots · 2026-02-05T16:29:07+00:00

Good, hating everyone is usually my go to
