    Hello everyone! I have a 2010 4runner with a odd issue. When coming off the brake at a stop to start moving the 4Runner will jerk a little bit. Anyone had this issue?

    I didn't know if this applied to the 5th gens but apparently is does. It's a well documented issue that's been going on for years. Greasing the driveshaft u-joints with the correct grease, (it takes two different ones) sometimes will correct it. Just do a search for 4runner driveline bump or drivetrain bump. You should get plenty of results. I actually had the same thing on 2000 Tundra I had. The good news is it's mostly harmless, just annoying.

    I had the exact same issue with my FJ and greasing the front driveshaft slip joint cured the problem right away
