4cyl with YZZD3 and Oil

I believe the manual was revised at one point to say 5.5qts.

 

I do this too except I never replace the PS fluid. People don’t realize that it’s the PS fluid that holds our trucks back from being badass drag racers....... but Shhhh don’t tell other people it’s a secret life-hack

 

You laugh, but this thing is so underpowered that if I fart the truck accelerates. I noticed when the AC compressor kicks on. I notice when the winter blend fuel starts being sold. I notice when I haven’t changed the oil in awhile. Small things make a difference when I can barely do 60mph on the highway.

 

Then you have something else going on and need to get it fixed. I keep up with traffic everywhere.

 

Nope. They did revise it however by increasing it from 6.1 Qts to 6.2 Qts. LOL

This is an screen shot of the 2020 Tacoma Owners Manual from their web site. And it calls for 6.2 Quarts of oil with a filter replacement.

Yea. Heavy tires. Was always slow and hard to catch up to traffic though even since it was new and unmodded. I guess that’s what a DCSB 2.7 auto is gonna be though.

 

I didn't realize you have the double cab. That will certainly put a strain on the 2TR-FE... I drove a DCSB and wanted no part of that bad matchup.

 

The weight difference isn’t that much between a ACSB and a DCSB. The auto really kills it though. I plan on converting it to manual at some point.

 

big heavy tires and bed caps or tonneau covers are the kiss of death for the 2.7l taco
