  1. What did you drive before your Tacoma?

    Nice. Does it happen to be a TME? I plan to change the exterior appearance of my X with a little TME inspiration.
  2. 12v battery (hybrid) runs low after sitting for a week

    I have an OBD Link dongle that I can use to monitor various parameters. When I am in P, R, or N, I will see the voltage indicator above reading at the halfway point (5 segments) and voltage at the OBD port is 13.7 to 14.1. Once I select D, the voltage indicator shows the same as above (3...
  3. What did you drive before your Tacoma?

    '14 EVO X was my daily. Now that the Taco is my daily, I can look into more mods for the EVO.
  4. Chipped

    Initially, your local Toyota dealership, otherwise a local automotive paint shop should be able to source the correct color touchup pen. Lastly, with the paint color code, you could source the touchup pen online.
  5. Chipped

    I think this looks more like a paint chip than a glass chip. The environment the truck is used in will determine the severity of that chip. Using a good paint touch up pen(s) (color and clear) to seal the chip will help prolong the effects the environment may have on that compromised surface.
  6. New K&N 63 Series Intake - Forum Exclusive Discount!

    Here is what the instructions actually say. Note the cleaning more often when used in dusty/off-road environments. I've always changed my serviceable air filters every oil change by simply swapping the dirty filter with a spare clean filter and then service the dirty filter, so it is ready to...
  7. Redline Tuning Hood Struts for 2024+ Tacoma 4th Gen – 10 minute Bolt-In installation! MADE IN THE USA!

    The QuickLift Elite was the first thing I ordered and installed after getting my truck. You'd think hood struts would be the norm for manufacturers.
  8. 2025 Hybrid Rear Diff Change? Rear Guard Install Problem (Solved)

    The Yota Xpedition video also does not mention the rubber sleeves and axle brackets have a specific orientation (besides the open end facing down). There is also a molded in angle, described in the Toyota install instructions, that is to point towards the wheels.
  9. 12v battery (hybrid) runs low after sitting for a week

    This is also the battery that is in my '24 OR hybrid. I carpool every other week and travel, so my truck sits for a few days and intermittently a week or so. Knocking on wood, I have yet to see an issue.
  10. Deactivate Auto Parking Brake on 2024 Tacoma -- how to DIY instructions

    Do you have the manual transmission? or the automatic?
  11. Need advice to eliminate the squat when towing!

    A bit off topic, but I like the contrasting body side molding on the doors. I almost went the same route on my silver taco but ended up installing the color matching ones. I don't see them very often.
  12. Ventilated seats performance

    Correct. It is in the service/maintenance manual.
  13. Hybrid owners: Does the gas engine turn on when you start the car?

    Agreed. Reading my previous response, I think I was answering one thought by typing another. I don't specifically defeat it on the taco. Although, I probably would if there was a dedicated button to do so. I had stumbled across the S mode defeat while exploring the features of the truck. Turns...
  14. Deactivate Auto Parking Brake on 2024 Tacoma -- how to DIY instructions

    Same here. I was not aware of the auto setting. I've just been manually operating it.
  15. Ventilated seats performance

    The service manual shows the location of the seat blower motors. Since they pull air through the seat, it will be the same temperature as the cabin air.
  16. Hybrid owners: Does the gas engine turn on when you start the car?

    For me, it's just a personal preference thing. I don't care for the delay of the I.C.E. on restart and will immediately look for the auto start/stop disable button in any rental cars I come across that have it. I wasn't aware tow/haul mode defeated it but found it interesting shifting to S mode...
  17. Clearing cruise speed

    Pressing the cruise mode button to switch between distance detection ON/OFF will clear any previously set speed. This can only be done once cruise has been deactivated via the cancel button or after applying brakes.
  18. Trip meter reset — HOw?!?

    Just needs a Step 3.1 describing how to enable the trip display if they do not appear during the UP/DN toggle.
  19. Dealership Oil Change (RCI Skids)

    I think at the same time, the dealership/tech could have raised any concerns they have with the non-factory parts and came up with a better solution than to just make do and cause a mess.
  20. Interior mod - what to do with the side slot?!

    I just figured it was for one or two phones when using the charge ports.
