Thank you all for the information. It looks like since the final drive ratio went up the engine revs 200 rpm higher. I am ok with that given the increased acceleration.
You would have to have a good ear to determine the engine rpm lol. It is very quiet at high speeds. Sounds like the engine is revving low like 2000 rpm
What I meant is that when going 70 ot 80 mph the truck seems relaxed like it is revving at low rpms. But what you are telling me is that the rpms are on the high end but it doesn’t feel or sound noisy. I prefer lower rpms.
Does anyone know the difference in engine rpm at 70 mph between the 24 and 25 hybrids? I know the final drive ratio changed from a 2.91 to a 3.37. I have had the truck up to about 80 mph and it felt relaxed to me. Thanks
Thank you very much for the suggestion. I have a locking one but I can’t find it lol. I guess I have been lucky up till now. Nobody has ever touched the one on my 4Runner and it is a Harley Davidson one that has been on there for years. I will look for another locking one.
What I do before starting the truck keep your foot off the brake and hit start. Then see if the A/C light is lit. If it is turn it off. Then start truck and problem solved. This is for a 26 hybrid. I have not tried remote start to see what happens.
