    Can you link us to where Toyota states up to a 3" lift is OK as far as the warranty goes

    As expected- "Oh, Toyota contradicts my opinion on the matter? They must not know what they are talking about!" :p

    I'm going to have to go play in a parking lot this winter. I'll be mildly annoyed if, no matter what buttons I push, I can't slide my truck around! :)

    My dealer told me that when I purchased this last June, but you might contact the help desk and they could verify it.

    If you want the link, go find it or STFU about it. savedone mentioned it once in passing, then you latched onto it like it's his obligation to provide it to you.

    That reply is from a customer service rep not a tech or someone who engineered the damn system. I shut mine off by holding it in and did donuts in an empty parking lot (lots of snow) and what do you know it kicked back on.

    You got a problem ?

    He said that Toyota was fine with lifts up to 3" as far as warranty is concerned , I asked him to provide that info as it would be beneficial to others

    You're a nice enough guy most of the time, but you start with the smartass picking sometimes like you did with savedone. "I'm waiting, I'm still waiting, still here" and all that garbage. If you wanted the link so dang bad, you should have just gone and got it instead of all the garbage posts.

    Our switch, the one I sent you the wiring for, completely disables VSC and TRAC right? I know it kills ABS all the way ;)

    Then you should have said so right away instead of all that prissy "I'll be waiting, I'm still waiting, still here" garbage.

    I had this really long post for how dumb you are but I'll try to remain nice...

    There is no link.. If OZ wants the info from someone else obviously he can't find it himself therefore he is asking for help. If this link is so easy to find I will PayPal you $100 if you find it within an hour

    Sorry to interupt the discussion about how my experience concerning VSC is incorrect

    Show some respect for members that have been here much longer than you and clearly are aware of circumstances that you are unaware of.

    You 2 arguing that off is off clearly have way too much faith in the Toyota help desk. I went through an 18 month long lemon law case with my truck and a team of Toyota "engineers" were unable to find the problem. Somehow they failed to realize the front diff actuator is responsible for engaging the front axle, and the motor inside the actuator needs to be able to work. For it to be able to work, it has to be clean and dry. For it to be clean and dry it needs to have a vent hose connected to the nipple. As is clearly shown in every diagram and parts breakdown for the front of our trucks.

    And yet a team of engineers and a dozen mechanical inspections were unable to realize that?

    After winning my case I replaced my front diff actuator and breather hose and had working 4wd a week later for a total of $350. I bought a new rear bumper with the remaining settlement money.



    So don't ever show your lack of knowledge again by continuing to argue with people that have experienced something that you fail to believe just because "Toyota says so"...

    Asking for help is one thing, that prissy little girl act "I'll be waiting, I'm still here, I'm still waiting" is another thing. Men understand that, apparently you don't.

    This thread is decending into a full tampon-a-thon

    If you want to believe that turning VSC off via the VSC button turns it off 100% that's fine by me , it's just not my experience with it

    No need to take sides with anyone , go figure it out on your own
