    There is an eco setting for the AC— make sure it is turned off via the Home Screen functions

    Roughness while idling?

    Mine idles smooth— must be an issue that only affects certain GXs

    Who's the first to put regular octane gas on their GX550?

    I always use 91 except for the accidental 1/2 tank of 87 I added when I first bought my GX.

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    I wonder why only a seemingly few have these issues; I should think all of them would be affected given a mainly automated assembly line.

    Most do not have brake or vibration issues, including my Overtrail+. You will love this truck— I do!

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    Agree but not all Overtrails suffer from these issues (maybe the vast majority don’t)— maybe an assembly line or dealer prep issue?

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    Also odd not all vehicles suffer from it if they were all from the same assembly line—- mine has had none of the various vibration/flutter/brake squealing issues noted in this forum

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    200 miles and slight washboard—I don’t think any high end luxury cars or magic carpet could top that. Seriously, I think a lot of this comes down to perception, expectations and life experiences or monsters on the wing (channeling Shattner from an original series Twighlight Zone). Am just...

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    It seems to me the vibration would affect all overtrails and not just a few. Am lucky I guess!

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    I agree with MichaelT. My 550 has no issues whatsoever. If someone in San Diego has one that does, let’s compare both rigs and we can post video results. I too am surprised that no one has not posted a video of the brakes and vibration.

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    That is my experience. I assume no one expects 100% smooth ride on not so well maintained roads. On smooth California highways (which are never 100% smooth), my 550 is very smooth with no vibration.

    AC Pressure Noise GX550 OT+

    I must be lucky— no suspension vibration, no hood flutter or AC noise and the ML stereo and massage seats work great.

    Carmax offered me $12.4K for my 2014 4Runner (164K miles). I sold it for $18.5 on Craigslist in 2 days

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    I am in San Diego and mine does not vibrate. Am happy to participate in the test. No brake squeal and no lean either.

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    Mine is an O+ but what you say may be true as well!

    GX550 Overtrail Vibration

    It seems all the 550s would have a vibration issue. In my view it comes down to driver perception. At the end of the day, it is a truck and will not give a luxury car ride. Same with performance cars— a Dino, Boxer or Miura will never be as smooth as a performance BMW and a Ducati v4R or SP2...

    GX550 30 Day Stop Sale?

    Mine is a caviar overtrail+ and I have put 2400 miles on in 5 weeks. I guess I lucked out since mine has no hood shake, vibration. HUD, touchscreen or paint issues. Super happy with my purchase having come from a 2014 4Runner. BTW, I never expect a vehicle like this to be as quiet as a...

    GX550 transmission already a bit clunky?

    After 1,140 miles, mine does not do that at all. Also no hood shake or vibration and I think sound attenuation is great— love my Overtrail + !!!
