First thought that pump shaft seal was leaking, however, gasket discovered leaking when pump pully removed. All they can say is that the computer says everything is okay. User forums showed this is a common problem with the 5. The repair in 2011 was before Toyota discovered the problem of water being sucked into the secondary air pump. It is sometimes the pumps and other times it is the valves that are under the manifold. Car taken to Toyota dealer. Actually doing both is a good thing if you can afford it.
Here's a question: I just bought a tranny cooler for my 97' limited. Toyota made the repair with original parts from 2007, not the 2011 fix that was the subject of the hidden warranty. The dealer asked if I would like to pay a small amount and replace the timing belt at the same time. Peoria Toyota was great, despite not purchasing Tundra at Peoria Toyota. Just install an aftermarket tranny cooler. Toyota is letting customers pick up the repair costs for their mis-design. I want to do the radiator too, can I now run a raditator for a manual transmission 4Runner since I have a seperate tranny cooler?

Sometimes it feels like you've been rear ended, after coming to a stop. Vehicle repair costs may vary from vehicle to vehicle. This was caused by the ground being slippery and the high idle speed. Ordered parts, at that time. Dealer was not the purchase dealer, but did the job free. Estimated price is customized for your vehicle make, model, year and trim, but does not include diagnostic charges, taxes, disposal or environmental fees, oil or other fluid costs, or other ancillary parts that may be needed for the repair. They deny deny deny and make you feel very small.
The vehicle was inspected by a dealer and the dealer advised her that the pump and the valve set would need to be replaced. It is the sole responsibility of the viewer to assume this risk. Tried by pass and it didn't work. The factory technician informed me that the cause of the problems with my truck were because several sensors had lost calibration due to the battery being disconnected. Dealing with the Toyota folks on the telephone is the most ugly experience I've ever had. A quick google search on the problem shows the problem is systemic with 2007+ Tundra and sequoias with the 5. I let my foot off the brake and the truck went straight, even as I applied the brakes, leaving two big ruts through my friends yard.
Toyota has treated me like crap, at the dealer level, and on the corporate level. In process of doing elimination of the problem. Mechanic noticed leaking water pump took picture, I inspected and okayed work. A review of several Toyota repair procedures, which require the battery to be disconnected contain no warning to check sensor calibration. In and out of limp mode. I have read the sticky about buying one. This is the second time for these codes with the first time at around 55,000 miles.
Sheesh, there are options people. The repair caused a leak at the air injection tube to exhaust manifold gasket, since it took 2-weeks for the poorly aligned or fitted gasket to blow out the Toyota Dealership feels they have no responsibility. Plus it is a 100% guarantee against the pink milkshake. The repairs failed to remedy the failure. The system is for emissions testing at startup and the truck will go into limp mode if the test fails to work properly.
Vehicle started having hesitation limp mode issues. Toyota knows that these parts, are defective!! Put original pump in primary position on the system in secondary pump's place. The contact stated that upon starting the vehicle, the vsc-off, four wheel drive low, check engine and traction control warning lights were illuminated. P2441 Secondary air injection pump valve stuck closed. I am a newbie to 4runners, and am not mechanically inclined yet to tackle a replacement myself.
This is a daily occurence that has been taken to different Toyota dealers with no relief. Looking forward to learning more about the 4Runner here on the forum have been a Landcruiser nut - currently enjoying three - 81, 89, 92 Thanks again for the replies. Call and get one from a different dealer just to be sure. The traction control system is one of the major safety systems of this vehicle. The above is a straightforward repair: replace the radiator, bleed the coolant of air. The failure mileage was approximately 119,000.
Its not safe and very dangerous. Man, what is with all the people wanting to replace their radiators as preventive maintenance? The manufacturer was contacted and offered to pay for fifty percent of the repair costs. The cost of replacement for the affected parts is beyond reasonable for all Toyota owners. The wasn't enough of a leak to show up on the garage floor where the vehicle is parked. It is half the price, less work, and will keep your tranny cooler than the stock one.
Sheesh, there are options people. There is no information in the owners manual nor any warning signs on the vehicle that provide any cautionary statements to the owner or a service provider that disconnecting the battery may result in the loss of calibration of sensors in the vehicle. I have had this vehicle shut down the throttle while I was trying to accelerate from a stop sign at an intersection, thus nearly causing a T-bone collision. I went from domestic, to Toyota, for the same reason, 10 years ago. When it fails, the operator may loose throttle and braking control.
