Huh?
I went in my settings through the gauge cluster and turned it off, along with all the PDA Proactive Driving Assist functions. It has stayed off for months.
There's probably paint in the hole. You definitely DON'T want to tap that hole... It will cut away some metal with the paint. You need a thread chaser.
Your truck has DRLs. They all do. Most are the headlights running at a reduced brightness.
But if you want your lights always on full brightness, just leave the headlight switch in the ON position.
They will turn off automatically after a minute once you lock the car, or you can push the lock...
Climbing a curb is not an effective 4wd high test. There's no need to try that.
Drive somewhere that has dirt or gravel. You shouldn't be engaging 4wd on concrete/asphalt anyway.
I'm now 97.6% sure it's the clutch switch.
The ECU receives the signal from that switch to perform the rev matching, and without the signal the ECU no longer knows that you are shifting. Pull the under-dash panel and look at the clutch pedal bracket. Find the switch and wiring. Make sure all...
Gotcha.
If the only thing you did was pop out a switch blank, and then put in the knob but didn't plug it in, it's either one of two situations:
You accidentally knocked something loose or disconnected something. This seems most likely. The clutch pedal has a switch on it to detect when it is...
I had issues with mine, especially the hardware - it was all too long. I wonder if they fixed that? I emailed their team but never got a response. The long screws were breaking the OEM plastic inserts in the fenders. And the long machine screws were gouging the OEM fenders.
Mine also didn't sit...
What exactly did you install? OEM trailer brake switch?
The first step is to undo what you did to see if it fixes the problem. Warranty won't cover issues caused by a modification that you did, so it's best that you figure it out before involving the dealership.
As to the "rental car" comment...
For the first 40 years of my life, every time I'd get in a rental car, my first thought was always "wow, this is nicer than any car I've ever owned."
You have a new truck. You're doing better than the vast majority of people. Enjoy it.
FYI: If you have lights in this position, pointed straight ahead, they will glare off your hood. Even with spots. The purpose of these lights is to pointed to the side and down to see in the... Ditch (Hence the name).
The SR5 Taco is a killer truck. There are more SR5 trim Yotas in the world than any other trim level. Most people would be more than stoked to drive one.
Don't like it? Sell it and get something else.
How tall are you and your wife? That's the biggest factor here.
I'm 6' with longer legs, and my driver's seat is pushed back enough that a big kid would be cramped behind me.
My wife is 5'-6", and there's plenty of room behind her seat.
If you and your wife are both shorter, the Taco will...
The pop was probably the transfer case engaging or disengaging.
How I test modern 4 wheel drive trucks:
- Find a gravel parking lot.
- Drive in a circle in 2wd. Remember how it feels in that gravel.
- Switch to 4High. Wait for the light to stop blinking. If it takes more then 5sec, slowly roll...
I can't argue there... They don't make it easy!
It's a bunch of lines around the truck, and some X's off the corners. I plan to stick a bunch of blue painters tape on my shop floor based on those dimensions.
In the file that @Delta1Seven posted on the previous page, the manual section gives the distances from the truck that the lines need to be calibrated to. This will also affect the pedestrian detection.

AWESOME! Thanks for confirming. This is a big advancement for these trucks, allowing us to keep our camera working after any suspension lift or grill swap.
