    Android auto secret?

    Actually, before trying what I typed below, make sure you update Android Auto to latest and just try re-pairing normally again w/ the head unit. I've had less problems with it since I just updated AA to latest (v12.9). If still no joy, try disabling wireless android auto to force it to use the...

    6 MT CLUTCH ISSUE

    @Sandeep1994 Did you ever find out what this was? I'm pretty sure I'm experiencing something similar. (6MT OffRoad) Sometimes (infrequently) the action of depressing the pedal feels "rough" as it travels. It's felt at the pedal, not engine or transmission. I just can't quite reliably reproduce it.

    TSB: 2024 Tacoma Transmission Failures Issue & Replacement (9/9/24). Updated w/ VIN Lookup Tool

    Thanks for posting different manual tranny TSB. I wonder why Toyota includes manual trannys in this one though [3TYLE]... anyone got insights? Wonder if they just want me paying that much attention when I drive my manual tranny, that they just double-whammy it on an auto TSB for good measure... 🙃

    Odd Engine Noise (2024 Manual TRD)

    That sounds identical to mines! By now I'm close to 900 miles with 0 problems. I feel like the noise settled down a bit, or like someone else said in a previous reply, has just become less offensive to my ears. Agree! Man, try it in ECO for a bit, it's easier 😂😂. Then swap around to normal &...

    Rear Differential Leak -- Check Your Rear Diffs

    3TY owner here, just about 600mi or so. Just got back from checking my rear diff. Marks on my driveway always throw me off because my previous car used to leak so much oil... I've left leak marks in my garage, my driveway, and at least the 1st four visitor parking spots up front...

    Odd Engine Noise (2024 Manual TRD)

    Conclusion: That's how the direct fuel injectors sound. Looks like @26wx was right about their hunch. Took the car to the dealer and I was actually pleasantly surprised by how seriously they took me, they didn't brush me off. The 1st tech assistant was surprised by the noise too, so they took...

    Odd Engine Noise (2024 Manual TRD)

    That is exactly what it sounds like. I actually just got back from the dealer. To my surprise, they actually squeezed me in the queue for an engine diagnostic service once they heard the noise. Later tonight or tomorrow I should hear back from them. We'll see...

    Odd Engine Noise (2024 Manual TRD)

    Thx for all the feedback. I too am of the camp that generally trusts the engineering that goes behind designing these trucks. Nothing can 100% guarantee it, that's just life. I'm thinking Weds or Thurs I'll likely have some time to swing by the dealer to gauge what they can diagnose for me...

    Odd Engine Noise (2024 Manual TRD)

    Thanks for the couple of replies so far. If I wind up going to the dealer I'll update this post with their feedback. I too can hear the gears shifting, in particular from 1st to 2nd. I usually drive with my windows down except the dead of winter... In general this transmission is pretty noisy...

    Odd Engine Noise (2024 Manual TRD)

    2024 Manual Taco TRD Off-Road, about 550mi on it. Do any of your Tacos make this engine noise? (attached, bottom) As far as I can remember the engine makes this noise since I took my Taco out of the dealer. It just took me a second to recognize it stood out and another second to figure out how...

    Rough transmission shifts

    2024 4x4 TRD Off-Road Manual owner here. Wanted to give some insight from the manual POV. Interesting thing reading through this post is that, I feel like I had to learn to work through everything your auto transmissions are experiencing. Shifting from 1st to 2nd is tough, and tougher from a...
