    There is an awful rotten egg sulfur smell being emitted from my 2005 toyota 4 runner when driving with back window open. After doing much research, i see there have been many tsb's issued for 4 runners dating back to 2003 and up to the 2006 models. I brought my car into the dealer, but they tell me my engine is not covered under the tsb's issued. I feel this is a problem that should be covered. *jb

    Dt: the contact stated that there was a rotten egg odor in vehicle. The service dealer referred the consumer to the manufacturer, and they stated that the odor was coming from the fuel that was being used in the vehicle because new england fuel had a higher rate of sulfur. *ak
