What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

Did 60K service today. Pretty much everything I did was the first time I had done it on any vehicle. We will see if the truck blows up because of it.

1. Spark plugs
2. Front diff, transfer case, and rear diff fluid changed
3. Coolant drain and refill
4. Grease driveshaft
5. Can't forget about most importantly, change cabin air filter

 

what type coolant u using?

 

Sounds like about $750 in maintenance fees you saved.

 

For sure. Had some help from your videos. Big fan by the way. Everything went smoothly except for stepping in dog poop.

 

Thanks man!

Lol! Of all the things that could go wrong when working on your truck, I suppose stepping in dog poop is not too bad.

 

It is if you accidentally track it into your truck!

 

A few days ago I added the FrontRunner Axe Bracket to my FrontRunner Bedrack. This morning and today we got a fresh few inches of spring snow in SteamBoat Springs, CO.

 

Springs here & the Horns are out.

 

I just replaced my Plugs also on a 2015 with 52K. It was too cold out at 50K.
I took out original plugs NGK R LFR60C11.
they look much like yours, maybe a little worse.
I put in DENSO Iridium Power IHK20-5344.
I've only driven it for 3 days with them so I don't know but, things seem smother.

What did you put in?

Thanks... Does it really cover up the DRL that much?

 

Not at all.

 

I also put Denso Iridium Power in. Haven't really noticed a difference but I've only driven a few miles.

 

I drove to the store and when I got out I smelled something burning. I thought I was burning up the diff. I drove in 4HI to get the fluid circulated since I changed it. I went to the car wash to power wash the underside of the truck because of all the grease. Got home and didn't smell anymore. The smell was either from driving in 4HI or slinging grease onto the exhaust.

 

Pentofrost A4 Pink. I've used it in all my Toyotas and it has treated me well.

 

Not today, but Sunday on my way home from work. I think-hope it’s totaled.Oncoming driver lost control on the ice-slush hit me head on. Everybody is okay, sore and bruised.

 

nice, thanx for the response, this is the coolant I plan to use, glad no issues using it, from what im reading from PENTOSIN it should mix OK with any Toyota SLLC coolant left in the truck,i don't want to flush just drain and refill.

 

Before I did a drain and refill I would top off with it. I assume Toyota Factory Coolant was in the truck. I never had a problem but I don't know if it actually circulated or just stayed in the reservoir. I also did a drain and refill.

 

holy crap! glad you are ok

 

Man... That sucks.... Glad to hear everyone is ok...
