    Make sure the 4x4 system works - 14k probably means it wasn't used very often and things can get gummed up in there if it isn't switched on every so often. I think Toyota even recommends something like 10 miles a month in 4x4.

    CARFAX is all good except it is due the Frame service campaign. I’ll be looking at the frame close before I buy it.
    Because of the frame campaign should I be overly worried?

    Thanks

    I say no worries. We all got the letter.
    If it’s at a Toyota dealership they should do it for you.
