  1. SmartCap EVOd Defender Truck Cap installed

    The cap, directly from SmartCap was $3600 shipped to Alaska in a week and a half. Surprisingly fast and Its definitely quite well made. My last tacoma had an ARE fiberglass. I think any future caps will be metal from now on.
  2. Can't Drive 2024 Trailhunter Past 75 mph

    Alot of times when wheels cant be balanced, the tires have runout that tend to be more pronounced at higher speeds. Theres nothing you can do but change the tire. They should be able to see it on a lift with the tire spinning. Ive seen mostly off road style, knobby tires have these issues...
  3. Second oil change at 5000 miles. More metal debris found (with pics!)

    Im at 10,000 miles and ive done 3 oil changes already. Two under 5000 during break in, and the last one at 5000. I have noticed it looks quite darker and more of a smokey smell to the oil at 5000, than my third gen. The turbo is definitely working the oil more. Using Amsoil synthetic and Im...
  4. What Did You Name Your Taco?

    Laquisha ShaQueen Mobley.
  5. Removal of panel around chargers

    I purchased the service manual from Factorymanuals.net
  6. Removal of panel around chargers

    Looks like its just held on by clips. Pull out. Looks like its just held on by clips
  7. Trailer detected glitch?

    Mine works as normal. I shouldve given it more time before i wrote this post. After you disconnect it just prompts you again once it realizes its not there.
  8. Magnefine Transmission filter

    I wouldnt mess around with that on a modern vehicle. That would surely void a warranty, almost guaranteed. Also, the debris left behind in the trans' was sand from the castings, not metal particles. This would be something that could potentially be used on an old 80's or 90's vehicle, even...
  9. Thoughts on no engine cover and exposed wires, etc.

    You literally overthought all of this. Every engine for the last couple decades has wire loom/tape. The cover is entirely cosmetic and theres little to no point to its existence. Its probably better for the engine in terms of heat removal. Probably the worst thing you could do to your engine...
  10. TSB: Hybrid Tacoma Now Included in Transmission Failure Issues & Replacement (October 2024)

    One thought about the smell..for the first few thousand miles, my Tacoma had a very sharp and peculiar smell i could not pinpoint. I believe it was either something in the Catalyst being burned off or some new coating on either the exhaust or engine that has slowly faded off. I initially it was...
  11. TSB: Hybrid Tacoma Now Included in Transmission Failure Issues & Replacement (October 2024)

    The transmission is entirely different, and the sand castings wouldnt affect a manual transmission the same it would an Automatic. Now, for discussions sake, lets say there was casting material left inside the gearbox of the manual transmissions as well. The exteral "acrid" smell you would...
  12. Low Fuel Warning - 4 gallons left?

    If i remember, my third gen was about the same. Even on a bone empty tanks saying there was 20 miles left, it would only take about 17-18 gallons of the 21 gallon tank. I think they just leave a healthy reserve in there.
  13. My favorite 4th gen Tacoma upgrades over the 3rd gen

    Rear suspension and brakes are one of the biggest improvements. Tacomas always had the worst rear end. You forgot to mention the incredible engine/trans combo, that tows like an 8 cyl, and has pretty wild low end torque. I still cant believe how well this thing tows.
  14. Thoughts on the 2024 Tacoma after 17,000km

    Ive had every gen Tacoma brand new from the factory. Drove the 3rd gen for 8 years. It seemed outdated because it was. They hadnt changed the chassis since 2005. I didnt realize how shitty it was until i got the 4th gen. 2nd and 4th gens are the best. The 2ng gens were great for the time period...
  15. Possible Engine Failure in 2024 Tacoma TRD Sport

    Thank you. That information is good in case this becomes a common problem, it could be referenced with a search.
  16. Possible Engine Failure in 2024 Tacoma TRD Sport

    Very interesting. You really never hear of Injectors failing. Thanks for letting everyone know. Would you happen to have the write up receipt with the information with Codes? Maybe you can block out all your personal information for privacy, if that matters. If not, no problem :)
  17. BROKE MY TRUCK (ADD? Same issue as TFL?)

    If i remember... i saw a video where the "lead engineer" guy, whos in all the youtube videos, stated that the TFL break was a Software issue, which im finding a bit hard to imagine. He stated there is a sacrificial shear point in there, and they were working on a new algorithm or something, so...
