Well, I really really like my Tacoma Limited. I drive it constantantly over a newer and even better equipped LEXUS RX Luxury version. It (a very well equipped Tacoma) just seems to have the right road feel. It's definitely not a sports car feel , but it just feels "well behaved" on the road...

This may not have anything to do with your present issue, but I thiought I'd mention "it" for what it's worth... - 2025 Tacoma Limited 13573 miles - 2026 Lexus RX350 Luxury 2729 miles I'm going back and forth with Lexus corporate customer satisfaction first, as they are always the easiest of...

It can take a good period of time to connect. (but I wouldn't think over 5 minutes under any condition) I'll try mine later today. Make sure your subscription is registered properly. (That's really all I can think of if the Carista device is working properly)

I don't think this is user configurable in any way. It's "supposed to be" hard coded in to the infotainment system. (I think) It's not accessible from Carista that I know of and is likely, or perhaps I should say, it might be a "bug." You might try disconnecting the battery for 20 or 30...

I'm good with the reply. I feel it's a reasonable position. Toyota is not going to play any games. I'd say they have quite a list of problems right now. But hey, you "may" know more than their engineers, and hey they might be wrong too. It's was a recommendation, not a test of wills. Stay...

I wouldn't mess with Toyota at all, esp. right now with the V35 issues. It's 0w20 until the warranty is out. Then and only then , I "might" consider 0w30. (in the summer) I tow around 5600 pounds and carry more weight on the truck. (riders and some cargo)

If you try MEK, be sure you're in a well ventilated area.

Yup, same noise, 2025 Tacoma Limited and 2026 Lexus RX350 Luxury

Im not sure exactly what your intending, but, it's not inexpensive, but maybe, Toyota part # PT944-35240 ?

I’m towing at least 5k, pretty sure more. So far, I’ve never seen the temperature rise. (engine or transmission) I expect on a very long steep hill, it would rise, but so far never even noticed a temperature change engine or transmission, so far... That Tacoma is awesome! (I use tow/haul...

I thought I'd ask ChatGpt for you. I have a Limited. FWIW, we love ours... Power running boards are not available as a factory OEM option for the 2025 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro, as the TRD Off-Road package (which includes the TRD Pro) restricts this accessory to prevent compatibility issues...

I was going to write the same thing. My limited came with a hood pad installed from the factory. I was kind of wondering, why people who want a quieter engine to just order that from the factory?

Smoothness - no ridges - I have a factory bed (tonneau?) cover and I might have to get on my knees at times - that's to only reason I put the bed cover in - to cover the ridges - mine is absolutely smooth

My 2¢ for what it's worth... Premium (always) and top tier. I will say though, I don't seem to get a boost in mileage compared to what others report. But I'm satisfied with ≈20mpg if Im not towing.
