    Profile is updated-- here come the questions

    The 05 Tacoma is at 95K. I've read through multiple threads about flushing the tanny. Here's my list of homegrown MX for the pending 100K service (do it myself). Please feel free to tell me where I'm wrong and what I should be concerned with.

    - Original serpentine belt - need to replace
    - Change out diff fluid front and rear
    - Plugs changed at 65K - leave alone
    - Not sure about the anti-freeze - flush?
    - Air filter changed at 65K - almost time
    - New battery 1 month ago - (GTG) Good to Go
    - 4WD finally figured out where the zerts were 5K ago - lubed

    What am I missing?

    I would change the plugs too. You have that listed as "leave alone"...

    Really.

    Funny thing, if you look at my avatar you can see the red Corvette. I used to have to change the pugs every 10K on that thing - ugly. some burnt, some wet. I think I went 60K on the 4runner without changing - still beautiful. I changed the 05 Tacoma's at 60K and they looked as if they had another 30K easy.
    Worried about the 04 Tacoma more. I've been reading up on the dual pin plug requirement. didn't believe it until I saw the sticker.
    The 05 pulled out Denso's and replaced with Denso's. Do you think 35K it's time to change or just good precaution?
