I have a Limited that came with the key card. I keep it in my wallet since it's the size of credit card. Don't carry any keys anymore, my house door is touch code no key there either. There is 2 things different from fob to key card: 1) you can't remote start from the key card 2) If the...
It's happen to me a few times about six months ago. It was while using android auto and I ended the call from the Samsung phone and not the touch screen or the steering wheel button. Got fixed when I did a samsung update.
Every major city has several shops that do ceramic coating cheaper than the dealer. The dealer usually contracts with a mobile detailer to do ceramic coatings. I did it myself after watching a few youtube videos. The most important is to apply a small section at a time in a garage or in the...
Eco mode: when you press the pedal there is a little delay. Transmission shifts early around 1500 rpm. Saves gas.
Sports +: pedal response quicker aka pedal commander. Transmission shifts around 2000 rpm. Uses a little mo gas. You have a smile.
How to save gas in eco: Must drive with an...
The RAV4 has an eCVT, the Tacoma and Tundra have a regular transmission and an electric motor sandwiched between the engine and the transmission. Diffrent technologies. One for efficiency, the other for torque.
The only one I'm not sure is hub, I beleive it's 95.10. My after market wheels came with a centering ring from 106 wheel to hub 95.10. It went inside the Fuel Wheel, before mounting on vehicle. Most aftermarket wheels come with a larger diameter for the center (hub).
Also the oem lug nuts...
I have 18x9 with +20 offset, but using 275/70R18. Full turn, I can fit my finger between tire and fender. Just enough for flexing the suspension on the street, but I wouldn't want to go baja driving with that little spacing.
I have dueler ascent, but in 275/70 r18. They are a little heavier than stock, no humming, rolls good around corners. Got them from costco, not cheap $318 each, free balance/ install. 60k warranty. Lost 2mpg from stock.
It's happen to me a few times in 6 months. My only extra weight is tires about 15lbs/tire. From a stopped position turning either left/right and taking off slowly. There is a 1 second stutter, but never turns off. ICE engine on, but hybrid hasn't kicked in to help. Feels like the truck is...
Thank you everyone for the input. Only thing that works to keep ice engine on.
1) put it in tow mode, this will deactive some sensors or
2) put the gear shifter to the left in sport mode and move the gears to 8.
When I drive in stop/go traffic for 30 minutes, I use option 2. I can't beleive...
Is there a way to keep the ICE engine on all the time and the hybrid kick in only when you need extra power. I hate it when driving in traffic and every time you stop the engine cuts off.
I have bridgestone a/t dueler 275/70 r18 on a limited, no issues, stock suspension. I had oem wheels, then upgraded to fuel 18x9 +20 offset. No humming at highway speed. Check weight of what tire you want. E rated tires are usually heavy and you'll loose 2 mpg.
Your first oil change will have the most metal in it. The engine being new will shave metal anywhere two parts touch each other and are in motion constantly (microscopic like powder). You can't see it in the oil with the naked eye. There are companies that analyze your oil and send you a...
Some tonneau covers don't account for the curved edge at the front of the bed. If you stand on the side of your truck and look across the back glass, you'll notice the bed is not perfectly straight across. The tailgate not closing has to do with installation as the cover needs to be adjusted...
I have a 25 Limited hybrid. There is a noticeable engine engagement, but not a clunk. If I'm driving in traffic, I'll put it in tow haul mode so it doesn't turn off the engine. Also after a long highway drive, before getting off the highway, I'll put it in tow haul so the engine doesn't turn...
Rolling Resistance:
The wider the tire and the tread compound determines the resistance of the tire to roll. A highway tire (stock on sport) and an AT tire do not roll the same. AT tires and mud tires don't roll as smooth. They are designed to grip on gravel/mud. I had K02 on my F150 and...
The sport offroad and limited are about the same height. I have limited using bridgestone dueler at 275/70 R18. Lost 3 mpg from stock on highway. I also have wider rims fuel rebel 18x9 +25 offset. Stock no rubbing. Rims were about 400 a piece. You can get oem used trd rims much less.
