New Rear Leaf TSB T-SB-0305-08

Toyota has updated there rear leaf spring TSB the new TSB supersedes the old one TSB No. SU006-07 has been replaced with T-SB-0305-08 dated 9-30-2008 and now includes years 2005-2008.

 

can someone tell me a little more about this TSB? What are the symptoms and how can I tell if I qualify? Where can I get more info on this?

 

No I looked on here and I called toyota cause I thin k I need the tsb and they acted like they didn't know what I was talking about. So I just wanted to see about getting a write up on it so I can have more ammo when I go back.

 

One step closer to being a recall, hopefully, so it will cover my 05
Edit: W/ 57,000 miles

 

Oh,this is great. I just called last week about my 08, and they looked up the VIN in their computer and said "no go". When the link to the new tsb gets posted, I'll be marching down there with a copy in my pocket. Can't wait.

 

I think you have to do the TSB within the 3years 36,000 mile time. If you go to the dealership and complain that the truck rides rough and bottoms out with a small load they will more and likely do it. If they do not call the 1800 number and complain.

 

google search for T-SB-0305-08 turned up empty so far... Hopefully somebody will find the PDF soon...

 

^^^^^ Look at post #3 it's already in capable hands should be up here soon.

 

Just in the nick of time!!! I am up to 3 trips to the dealership, this should end the battle. Now for the question of the day. If I add the front spacer (leveling kit) to the front struts before I take the truck in I wonder if they will add the new parts and I get the alignment for free?

 

Nice

 

This is fantastic!! Thanks!

 

Does anyone know why some trucks need the TSB and some don't? Is it an issue for one of the suppliers? I need to pick up about 500 lbs of dirt this weekend so I'm going to give it a good test.

I'm glad it was extended to include the 08 model.

 

UGH!!!!! Wish I waited... I ended up doing Wheelers AAL since my 08 didn't qualify for the TSB a few months back. Well I hope my AAL's are just as strong as the TSB new leafs.

 

I'm a newbie here and have been doing some research on this. I have a new 08 DC 4WD and this is great news. Thanks for posting the pdf. I will email this to my service manager and set an appointment. LYLT.

 

Dandy,Welcome to TW.

 

Rep+ for (both of) you!

 

My dealer charged me a small fee to re-install my front spacers on the new shocks after the TSB was performed. I think it was like 69.00
