    Hey all,

    I Bought a 2007 double cab 6-speed with the SR5 towing and TRD Off-Road packages and 73,000 miles on it 3 days ago and I love it already for hauling a bunch of mtn bikes and all that jazz but it's got some issues already. Luckily the dealer is being helpful but it's still annoying to haev to drive there. I'll post them in the tech section so I don't clutter up the wrong section.

    I've already read through a bunch of helpful posts so I'm really looking forward to finding some more!

    Thanks guys. The 02 sensors were replaced today so hopefully that stops the VSC OFF light and slip indicators from coming on. I understand the gremlins that come with a used vehicle, I think who ever had this before me beat the crap out of it since it's missing a lot of little things. The first thing I want to fix is there are no shrouds in the rear fenders so they flap pretty easily. I haven't been able to really find them anywhere, I'm assuming they're called fender shrounds, whats a good OEM parts website or aftermarket replacement site?
