Fitment here is exact: the 2013 Toyota 4Runner this manual was written for is the 4.0L V6 (1GR-FE) truck in the trim you own, so every clearance, torque value and service sequence you work from is what Toyota set for this model year rather than a figure borrowed from the year either side of it.
Engines
- 4.0L 4000CC V6 GAS DOHC Naturally Aspirated
Trims
- Limited
- SR5
- Trail
Known issues on the 2013 4Runner. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers the passenger-side frontal air bag inflator module, part of a campaign spanning 2010-2016 4Runners alongside a long list of other Toyota models: an inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants. The second, from Southeast Toyota Distributors, covers the exhaust system, where contact with an exhaust tip may result in personal injury. The third covers accessory hood scoops installed by Southeast Toyota or its dealers; if the hood scoop detaches, it may become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash. Owners have filed 46 complaints for the year and Toyota has issued 144 technical service bulletins.
Whether the job is an air bag system check after that inflator campaign, an inspection of dealer-fitted exhaust or hood-scoop accessories, or routine work on the 4.0L V6, the manual holds you to the OEM procedure and the right specification for this 2013 4Runner.
