4Runner 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 500 miles
Toyota 2006 4runner 4WD limited discharges a sulfur smell when I accelerate, especially when I am going up a hill. The smell is strong even when my windows are up. I'm also concerned about the smell being a health issue. I purchased the car brand new in February 2006.

4Runner 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 5 miles
When my 2006 Toyota 4runner is running or when acceleration a rotten egg smell comes from the catalytic converter. I have taken the vehicle in and the dealer claims there is nothing they can do. I have never had this problem on any other vehicles I have owned.
