What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Well a remote start for a 4 runner 4.0 engine will not work on a 2016 Tacoma 3.5 SR5 thanks for the information

 

That's awesome man.. Now you can start enjoying your truck!

 

Ok, Just trying to help u out, I guess it's one of those mysteries in life!

 

probably because you went 80 series profile tire.

The circumference of the wheel/tire combo is too big for the wheel well.

 

Did you have to remove bumper to do this?
Thanks

 

what wheel offset/ backspacing did u get?

 

It's a fact actually, no OEM remote start for 3rd gens

 

4.3

I still can't find my sticker, guess it's floating around in the mail somewhere.

 

i have to wonder if you just had some spidertrax wheel spacers that may work u wouldn't have to cut ur new truck

 

I'm trying to get in touch w my allignment shop to see if they can set my caster to 3.0 instead of 2.5 I think that will do it

 

My husband changed mine as well. No need to remove the bumper.

 

At Toyota of El Cajon waiting for the TSB. No questions asked. Really cool folks over here. While waiting I found Marty McFly's Back to the Future truck.

 

I never got one

 

lol....always love your open and honest posts....

 

I'm here visiting SD.I went ahead and scheduled an appointment at Kearny mesa Toyota , what a bunch of %$#@##!!! had me wait for a couple of hours,while they have a printout of the TSB on their hand they said couldn't replicate the issue and told me that they're not doing it because there was no problem. wtf !!!

 

Trying out the black center caps on my grey trd wheels. Yay or nay?

 

Ducman, go to Toyota of El Cajon. They are busy today. I had an appt, but they hooked me up with a rental for the day.

 

According to the service writer they ended up replacing the rubber/felt strip at the top of inside door panel. Smear is gone. Had this from day 1 and was a royal pain. The dealer opened it on 1 visit, found nothing and sent it home. I personally have repaired/replaced window motors/regulators for many years. I told them before this visit that if they did not find the problem that I would video myself finding the problem. Started auto tech training 42 years ago so I am a little more than a shade tree mechanic. I just know there are only a few possible causes on a new vehicle. Overgreased tracks, etc or motor tossing grease or regulator carrying grease or, my primary suspect, accidentally placed or spilled grease on the felt or rubber at assembly. For an average Joe this is fairly easy to diagnose. If was not under warranty would have been fixed months ago. Copy my previous post and take it the dealer.
