Description of the problem | I have a 2004 toyota 4 runner. I noticed the extreme sulfur odor within the first 500 miles of driving the vehicle. I was told it was just a coating on the engine. Naive as i am i believed them. I am at 20,000 miles and many complaints to toyota only to be told it was the gas. They have done the tsb but no avail. It is still there and not healthy. *nm |
