NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Chris man! That's a great idea LOL. they do make coils springs for 6112. Its not a priority right now. It was nice see you the other day, long time no see...

 

This guys got it figured out. I see post #2 and already can see a bit a troll in him. I like it.

@JDAM what's the status on your truck? I keep reading how the replacement parts are wayyyyyy backordered.

 

oh it took almost a week for Michaels to get the parts. They replaced the secondary air injection shit and I hear that Toyota updated those parts so they don't fail so easy. It's funny. You pop open my hood and everything is covered in dust except for the shiny brand new pump and hoses connected to it.

Did other people have the same issue and waiting on parts?

 

my offer on a North Bend house was accepted today. As long as inspection goes ok... I might be stoked with this man room.

 

From the various groups on FB and the growing number of posts here, I'm seeing people saying their truck (99% of the time 2012) with "x" miles in/out of warranty have died and gone to limp mode, in the driveway or even at the most unwanted time, it's becoming a big headache for Toyota. Just about everyday on FB forums, there's some explaining the symptoms their 2012 is having, and once they finally scan the CEL, the code that pops up relates to the secondary air injection system. I believe there's at least 2 CEL codes that can relate to the SAI failure.

Did they reflash your ECU with an update or anything? I had read some opinions that the failure is due to the programing in the 2012 ecus and not allowing them to fully purge after shutsown causing premature failure of the SAI components. I can't say for certain about 2013 or newer but don't recall seeing anyone have this issue post 2012.

 

I heard it was a big problem on Tundra's before it showed up on Taco's. Not sure if they reflashed my ECU. My code said that the SAI valve was stuck open. Still thinking about that bypass kit in case it ever were to happen when I'm way out somewhere.

 

Wow man, your other half is going to wonder where you are all the time.

 

What part of North bend?

 

the original 1977 intercom system is still in place but not sure if it works and not sure if I want it to work LOL

Riverbend again(bailed out on the last one because seller was a dick) but this one is a dead end street and a wilderness rim property.

 

Hmm heard they get static and interference

 

So you're looking at 2 properties? Or just one in Riverbend? I've got a handful of friends that live in there. Two live right in begining, one you can see his house from the south fork bridge, he fly's the POW-MIA and USMC flags high and proud in his backyard. Another lives towards the middle of the neighborhood.

Wilderness rim is another 3 miles up cedar falls rd just before rattle snake lake.

 

no sorry, several months ago I was going for one right by the river and we talked about it briefly. But that seller did a bunch of shotty work on the house and wouldn't fix anything or budge on price so I bailed. This one is further back closer to rattle snake lake like you say. I'm probably jinxing the whole thing now lol

 

Shit yeah, wilderness rim(banjo town) is a great area.

 

congrats man

 

@JDAM, Wilderness Rim - we are gonna be neighbors. There are a couple Tacos in various stages of builds there. Just noticed a new one a week or so ago, Quicksand color w/ a shell and cool tree decals in the shells windows right next to the entrance.

 

This guy? Almost my twin, but with a canopy and swing out rear but no snorkel.

 

a couple houses up the street there is a pretty cool older land cruiser, clean, lifted, bumper and winch.

 

That's the guy

 

431st ave? There is a house a couple houses down from me with a cleaned up land cruiser and a house not to far past that that just had an open house...
