  1. 10,000 Mile Oil Change

    Even more reason to run 5w30 :wink:
  2. Low mileage trade in's - why??

    @GER_95 What I've shown are CAD prices (I see you're in ON). Yeah, dealers typically list prices for gently used above brand new MSRP. They've been doing that for about 4 years now, and get away with it by keep new stock inventory mostly non-existent...(you want new? Order now and wait 6...
  3. 10,000 Mile Oil Change

    Literally, embarrassingly, this was me! The oil dilution was so f'ing bad, I had to keep vacuuming out a couple quarts and topping off to the correct level. So not a full oil change, but I had to closely monitor it as the level would go way way over the full mark in a short amount of...
  4. Low mileage trade in's - why??

    @Tacohunter2024 thanks for sharing your story. I don’t think the trade in values (residual) on the 4th gens are as strong, percentage-wise, as the 3rd gens. The msrp has increased so much for the same category of vehicle, combined with some public resistance to the 4 cyl powertrain…only time...
  5. Oil/Fuel Dilution Concerns...

    This is a screenshot of my live engine data, driving highway speeds in -13f (-25c) temps, taken 1 hour into trip, burning regular 87 (10% ethanol). Engine oil temperature is simply too low (185f). My dad was driving his 5.7 hemi ram in same conditions, his engine oil temperature was 210-212f...
  6. Low mileage trade in's - why??

    Well that’s unfortunate…hopefully they can figure it out, and treat you well. I’ve only bought a couple parts there before, and they did two service campaigns on my old Tundra (CRC frame coating, and the AIPs). They were good those times, and didn’t screw anything up. But when I went there to...
  7. Low mileage trade in's - why??

    Welcome to Canada…our peso dollar sucks and overall the inflation is wild
  8. +35 Offset on Tacoma

    You did a great job! I did the exact same thing but struggled with the contour of the panel…had to make relief cuts. Still better than it being exposed
  9. +35 Offset on Tacoma

    I would say the tire are basically flush with the fender flares. Having said that tho…the SR5 has different flares, more slim. So if you’re keeping those stock flares, you’ll need to consider the poke amount. Also, check on RokBlokz website as I’m not sure if the high clearance flaps are...
  10. +35 Offset on Tacoma

    I have +35, 285/70/17 AT4 SL’s. With RokBlokz XL’s and TRD cast running boards …you’ll still have gravel flying everywhere. Put extra ppf on your rear fenders before you install your new wheels and tires
  11. Low mileage trade in's - why??

    Can definitely see this with a Ranger Raptor!
  12. Factory Horn Replacements?

    Has anyone noticed in extreme cold weather, the horn sounds like a 1992 Tercel? Meeep meeep. But in normal ambient temps it sounds like a regular horn
  13. Low mileage trade in's - why??

    The mpg point I completely understand ...
  14. Low mileage trade in's - why??

    Help me understand this. So a local dealer (name blanked out) has 3 very low mileage high-trim 2024 Tacoma hybrids in their used inventory. This is a small rural dealer, not a high density market...and new Tacoma's are still mostly on an order-only basis availability, at least in my region of...
  15. Driver's side grab handle available

    @ridetime I do find the grab handle does help in getting out of the truck, and I use it every time. I still haven't swapped the speaker grilles yet...kinda thinking that I need to keep the original trim piece for when I sell the truck.
  16. Starting Truck with Toyota App... App is Terrible.

    The app is absolutely ridiculous. Starting with lock lock hold is even more ridiculous. Why is it that GM/Ford/Dodge allows effortless starting with the key fob, and decent range at that? I remember with my GM truck you can press the start button a second time within the first 10 minutes...
  17. Anyone having problems going down from an 18 inch rim to a 17 inch rim. Specifically on a hybrid Tacoma.

    @Amorak SL tires are definitely the way to go on a Tacoma! These little trucks aren't Super Duty's
  18. Anyone having problems going down from an 18 inch rim to a 17 inch rim. Specifically on a hybrid Tacoma.

    @jackvz The front differential size is 8.0" The rear differential size is 9.5" (Hybrid and TRD M/T, same as 2022+ Tundra), the Non-Hybrid A/T and non-TRD M/T is smaller (8.2")
  19. Oil/Fuel Dilution Concerns...

    @Rocko yeah I always check it cold, and multiple times. I just don't understand what this engines problem is! Maybe it has something to do with the excessively high fuel consumption during cold weather? It chugs gas on the highway as bad or worse than my 5.7 Tundra ever did...yet with half...
  20. Oil/Fuel Dilution Concerns...

    Gas in oil. Overfull crankcase. This isn’t normal. I’ll never be able to go a full OCI in the winter…
