1999 Toyota 4Runner sr5 review from North America
"Best SUV ever-made"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced starter motor at 100000km
Fuel gauge gives wrong reading
Check engine light came on because of faulty TPS, I
replaced it, but after 1000kms it came back on.
General comments?
I love this truck, Had it for 3 years now and still runs and sounds very good, Just had some minor problems, but no biggie although its kind of costly maintaining it, but that's the cost of looking good and driving a beautiful truck. It has 133000kms on it and still I haven't change the timing belt which is not a good move, but they say technically its still alright, but for preventive measures, It needs to be replaced, bottom line 4runners are the best SUV's out there.
