    Hi everyone,
    I am having Transmission problems on my 2nd Generation 4runner. It's a 94 SR5 automatic. When the Tranny gets hot it won't move except in reverse. Has anyone else had this problem and if so was it a solenoid?

    Thanks,
    Laurie

    Have the Check Trans or A/T Oil Temp lights been on the dash recently when you have been able to drive it regularly?

    Give this link a read. It does have good information and if you and/or someone you know and trust to work on your truck has some mechanical skill, they should be able to rig up the Switch powered solenoid system described in this conversation between a Toyota Tech and a 4Runner owner with a similar problem as you.
