Vegas BS Thread!

Let me know if they get it fixed and I'll take mine there.

 

They're about that distance for me too, all I ever let them do are the recalls, I usualy do my own repairs, or get help from the offroad club I'm in

 

Damn. That's pretty stupid that they didn't catch the small shit when you first bought it. You'd think they'd catch that stuff during the CPO process.

 

I hate to admit this, but I had to trade in my 2006 Tacoma in this week. It was getting old, and I needed something with a V-8 so...I upgraded to a D-Cab Tundra and a 5.7. This means I have the following item for free to a good home. I don't have pics for them, but they are self explanatory.
Front diff for a 4WD Taco
Both front halfshafts for same
Front bumper and the painted bumper cover off my truck, in Speedway Blue
Blower motor for a Tacoma
12 or so lug nuts for the factory TRD sport wheels.
I will post more items, as I find them in the garage.

You guys have a week, then I put them on Craigslist, and they are gone forever.

I also have a Famous Fabrication roof rack, but it isn't free, it is $300, it is painted gloss black, and uses the factory mount locations. I took it off before I traded in my truck. The dealer got my truck with the factory roof rack in the bed, in pieces. Like everything Famous builds, it is stupid strong, and has tabs for 4 lights across the front.

 

That sucks. Sorry you're having so much trouble. I've used DW for service 2 times under extended warranty and had no problems at all with the service dept.
Continue to give them hell. Good luck.

 

Mine got balanced twice at discount tire. Dealer put in a rear drive shaft, dealer rotate and balance, road force balance the tires. Shit is annoying that it still has a little vibration going. The vibration at 50-60 feels like a tire out of round sort of like a little up/down vibration in the seat. Every now and then at 60-65 the steering wheel vibrates slightly. When I first got the truck it was a constant vibration in the wheel. I haven't pushed it much recently because I just don't have the time to be going back and forth to the dealer. They won't cover a rental unless they find an issue. I can rent a car at enterprise for $25 a day and the dealer wants $46 a day. I opened a case with toyota corporate but haven't been back to dealer yet. It's ridiculous that a truck with 2k miles has this issue from day one and still does a little.
I have seen this thread about the east coast gear supply bushing for front diff and what people describe in there is similar to what I have. If it comes to it I will replace the bearing myself. My half shaft does have a bit of play in it but so did another new one on the lot.

 

If someone needs it, I still have the puller I got from East Coast Gear and the tools to put the bushing in the front diff. Donno D did mine at his shop (Firestone) at Ann and Decatur. You guys can borrow it, if you need it. No sense in paying a fortune for it if I have one sitting in a drawer in the garage.
The front diff bearing starts a vibe at 20, 40, and 60 MPH. Donno swapped mine out, and that vibe went away for the most part. I also had a tire out of round that vibed at 60.

 

Did it make the steering wheel shake slightly?

Might have to borrow it if it comes to that

 

Yes, the vibe is felt through the steering wheel. It hits at 20 (bad) 40 (not so bad) and 60 (barely feel it). The rear tire that was out of round would shake the whole truck at 60 but smoothed out around 65 or so. By 70 it was gone as well.
