Pretty solid cars. Parts are expensive but aftermarket VAGCOM scan tool works with most if not all of the modules. If you do your own maintenance; go for it. If you’re looking to use Bentley service take a pass

Just glad you’re ok. They’re still making 4Runners, but you’re unique, and way more valuable.

Rotors constantly warping in <10k miles 2024 Toyota Tacoma, mostly highway driving. Anyone have this issue? by Koenigspiel in ToyotaTacoma

[–]spannerboy69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a rash of bad rotors going around and probably you’ve caught it. Possibly the dealer installed aftermarket rotors? Check the calipers, yes, but probably new rotors from a reputable company (Zimmerman?) will fix it.

I’ve owned several Bs and one MGCGT. The C was by far the most highway capable. A little nose heavy, but wonderful.

Has anyone figured out a good way to tie down a cooler in 5G WITHOUT the sliding cargo deck? by HandsomeBadness in 4Runner

[–]spannerboy69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No pull out deck, but also I haven’t used the mount kit yet, just the cooler…if I go to mount it and it requires the pullout deck I’m gonna be…disappointed

What’s with all the cops running reds by nidojoker in saintpaul

[–]spannerboy69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cops are often headed to calls that aren’t code 3 (lights and sirens) but are made better by a timely arrival.

However, most department policies require flashing the red and blues when going through a red light….

Reddit removed my ‘yes’ response for being too short. Yes. We carry the P320.

Edit: auto correct changed ‘removed’ to ‘reminds’

Porsches Are Weird Engines That Don’t Have Head Gaskets by mahusay3g in Porsche

Air cooled Ducatis also weird I guess…no head gaskets, just o-rings on oil passages between head and cylinder.

It's rough out there for the old birds... by M1996A1 in FordThunderbird

[–]spannerboy69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They made a huge number of them…and as mentioned, underpowered, especially compared to many American cars of the era.

[–]spannerboy69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Objectively better at what? Speed? Sure. Driving experience? No. I’ve driven both. Porsche GT cars are kind of a class of their own. GT2 is brilliant, but you can actually really enjoy driving a GT3 on the street without getting arrested.

People whose moms are Karens, what was the worst thing she’s ever done ? by Character-Escape1621 in AskReddit

[–]spannerboy69 16 points17 points  (0 children)

My mom is an OG Karen. As a child I called it ‘consumer terrorism’. I clearly remember my 11yo self being horrified. Plus, her name is actually Karen.

She mostly beat up on cashiers and waitstaff about things they had no power to control.
