torque converter seal. any idea when pipes were done? seal damage usually quick. if it was awhile ago and its not leaking you might be ok. its a tranny out job, yuk. google it...plenty of reading.
gotcha, thanks sir...I'm not sure when the pipes were done but it was at least 4-6 months back..no leaks that I am aware of..how much is labor on this starter job typically from an Indy shop?

We had a similar problem
I would say 99% the starter is the problem
I read on either Renntech or 6speed about someone just letting this go w/o replacement... and stating that if you can tolerate the noise it will last a few years, any truth to this or should I just dive in and get a new one? still need opinions on labor costs..
I would estimate an experienced indy can swap out just the starter in a couple of hours plus 3.5-400 for the part. I guess if you can stand the noise you can uses as is until it dies.
I'm in the exact same friggin' boat. Coolant tubes replaced 6 months ago; starter began screeching 4 months ago; red fluid (TCP seal) on garage floor this morning.
Wondering if anyone has used the re-man starters available online for ~$200??

This is very expensive
Once you get through the pipes and tcp seal. It's much gets better. I didn't have the alternator problem after my pipes were done. It's been almost a year now.
I ran away indeed..so far the 4runner has been great, but its no Cayenne that is for sure! I don't drive the 4runner much though, my wife has taken a liking to it.
