Hello I am currently in the market for purchasing a used FJ. I'm looking at a 2008 with close to 100k miles and a 2011 model with less. As far as I can tell they are the same except the engine. It seems the oil filter is on top of the engine for the 08 model and underneath the car for the 11 model. Is that the only real difference? Can someone please explain any significant differences? All help is appreciated thank you
Ps. I am looking for a manual transmission. Is there anything I should look out for when looking for such a transmission? Are they known as being reliable, or unreliable? And did they make two wheeled models also? Is there a way to tell it to make sure that I am looking at a 4 Wheel Drive as opposed to a 2 Wheel drive? The differentail shifter doesn't have a 4H and 4L It just has an H and HL with a N and LL Thank you
