    I have had to top off my overflow twice in the nine years I have had the truck. But it has never been more than a few ounces at one time. I probably have 3/4 of the gallon I bought left after topping off my truck and the wife's Camry several times.

    As far as the rattle, check to make sure your skids are tight. Mine developed a rattle in the cat recently with 94.5k miles on it.

    You may have to unplug it from the back and see if it will reset it.

    Is this easy? Can I reach behind the head unit without taking out the entire thing?

    Thanks bud! I'm not even a stereo system guy. I mainly listen to ESPN talk radio. The radio was actually still working but the screen was blank.

    I had the battery unhooked less than a month ago when I replaced it. Bought a new OEM battery. The radio and presets still worked this morning but the screen was blank. I guess I'll get real serious is actual sound stopped working. Just annoying having a blank screen and the CD player not functioning.

    You would have to have some really small hands to do that. It's alot easier to remove the head unit, plus it will save you alot of agravation and using alot of colorful 4 letter words by trying to do it with it installed.

    Awesome!

    I've seen the write up on switching to a 2012+ head unit in the 2005-11 model. I'd have to research a little because I am terrible at electrical and modifications to anything.

    Checked the skids and they all seem tight. I'm puzzled.
