Why bother with hood struts, thereās already a plethora of them on Amazon from anywhere $35-$55ā¦. Are you saying these will come in at less than $35ā
Thereās more to it than emissions, drivability could become an issue due to fouled spark plugs. Turbos and higher compression ratios and heats are failure point for spark plugs
Wasnāt my point. Just saying the same symptoms could arise should spark plugs not get changed at proper intervals and that the new Tacomaās change interval for spark plugs is unusually frequent for a modern vehicle.
To your point, the change interval for spark plugs on the new Tacoma surprised me, every 60K km. i havenāt noticed spark plugs needing to be changed at that mileage in over 20 years. Most plugs get changed well over 100K km.
The fix sounded too good to be true. Iām sure itās something that needs to be fixed by Toyota, not a jump up and down on one foot while rubbing your stomach and blink three times.
Take that garbage aftermarket Bluetooth battery monitor off the truck and stop relying on it. It just may be your problem period. Itāll be the first thing the dealer tells you before they even think about covering a battery.
As so goes the story of aftermarket crap, and the cost of DIY business. As a licensed automotive technician, the stories we could share. I know enough to stay away from most of that sort of stuff. Iāve seen cars where the customer decided to put a new customizable ECU in their vehicle, and...
Interesting- but of note, since this discussion, Iāve traded in my ā24 on a ā26 and there are zero issues with the TPMS saving on the display. I mean seems odd to have to jump up and down while rubbing your tummy, blink you eyes 3 times and then stand on one foot for 5 seconds. Toyota should...
Following, I asked when I had my PPF installed if there was anything for the door panels, theyāre super delicate. My ā24 door panels got so scratched so easily, I now have ā26 and wanted to find a way to protect them
Iāve traded my ā24 in and am now driving a ā26, the shake is still there but doesnāt seem as bad, although I only have 1000 miles on it so far.
The thing with the TAG system is they guarantee recovery, so it takes the burden of the loss off the insurance company. in all honestly if my truck were to get stolen, just keep it, I wouldnāt want it back. I keep mine parked in a garage at night and at work itās never out of my sight. Pretty...
