Sheldon brown(chief engineer) had mentioned in a few videos of the new 2024 Tacoma about a 3inch water inlet hose going to the water pump typically spec for a v8. I was looking at my lower radiator hose and upper hose tonight on my iforce Tacoma sr5. I measured the hose and at best both hoses...

New tsb released today by Toyota for automatic transmission failure now includes hybrid models.

I’m at 1800 miles my truck with a 3/24 build date. I’m been gradually noticing the trans getting worse. Today it did some hard shifts and some really clunky downshifts. After work it also got caught up between 1-2 gear and really clunked hard kinda jolting the truck . That was just driving out...

my sr5 has the Manuel a/c system and here’s my question, I noticed when I set the temperature dial to the coldest setting the air blows through the vents hard, when I move the temperature dial up one notch the air flow slightly decrease almost like the fan slows down a bit without touching the...

First time driving my sr5 on the interstate and through the mountains of Pennsylvania for 180 plus miles. Waited 1k miles during break in to take her out on highway. This truck really impressed me , was super smooth and comfortable and quiet . The engine was incredible with the power delivery...

Anyone with an sr5 that removed their “snow plow” know if there is enough room to get under the truck and change the oil without having to use ramps or jacks?

If you guys check your oil make sure you double check if the o-ring is still there. I pulled my dipstick a couple times checking the oil and the last time the o-ring fell off luckily I was able to find it. It was split in half. No idea if it was a defective o-ring from the factory or something I...

With talk of these failed automatic transmissions and much confusion amongst the internet im really curious to hear how everyone’s transmission behaves. Describe your expierence, are your shifts always really smooth, are they always really hard, sometimes hard shifting, do you find the...

How many of you guys plan on keeping your 2024 Tacoma for the long haul? Anyone buying the 24s and plan on trading them in when the refresh model comes out in few years? Just curious what everyone’s plans are. I plan on keeping mine for 20 plus years

So after owning my 4th gen for 600 miles and 1 1/2 months my only “issue” or complaint would be occasionally when driving slow in a parking lot I get this strange slight vibration or shudder in the truck usually when slowing to a stop. No idea what causes it but it’s happened a few times. Other...

Thought I’d share this….so far this is all we have that Toyota put out to their dealers.

I thought I’d post this, the engine in these 4th gen tacomas idle so smooth I can’t even tell my trucks running in gear or park. Such a huge improvement over the 3rd gen that would make my head shake it idled so rough. Granted with the a/c on get a little flutter when the compressor kicks on but...

Anyone know what the Toyota genuine oil filter part number is?

I bought my 4th gen a month ago have 380 miles on it and I’m just dwelling on the oil change intervals and high quality oil brands to use. I’m really thinking of doing 3k miles oil changes on this truck because of the 4cyl and the turbocharger. Contemplating using amsoil signature series oil or...

Just installed my OEM Toyota hard bed cover. Super high quality and easy to install. Looks great too, if anyone is on the fence call your Toyota dealer and order one.

Curious if these transmissions that have failed were shipped from the factory low on fluid? Anyone have any definitive information on this topic? Just curious
