What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Did a little skid plate install today.

 

I got the 20 OR too, I heard that my remote start would expire in one year, sooo, I installed the remote X, was about $100 and easy install, and I can continue to remotely start.

I think it was really sneaky of Toyota to expire that feature within one year, I wonder if this is mentioned in the owners manual?

 

Service guys don't like you. They're obviously taunting you.

 

I press my lock button three times (slowly) then hold (light show then it starts). Works every time.
Edit: Once the light show starts, keep the button depressed until it starts.

 

I went through the remote start with the dealer. They say due to complaints, you can start car with your key fob for 10 yrs before you pay. I had all the app shit removed from my truck. Press the lock button 3 times rapidly, not waiting for beeps or lights, again, not waiting- when you press & hold the 4th time, hold it until it starts. Only works from 100 ft or less & probably not through walls & obstacles. Also- there's no indication on your fob your car is started & running. Useless IMO.

 

Refer to the owner’s manual. Connected services only apply to the app……

 

Now THIS is a nice sexy skit plate install!! DAMN !!!! its like ART !!

 

Today I installed the world famous LED lights in the interior. All I have to say is WOW. Completely changed the interior.

 

Btw did you run a spacer or AAL in the back with the fronts set at .65? Or just oem leafs and the 5100s?

 

Wow that's actually a huge difference! Super clean

 

Installed the Morimoto third brake light. What a pain in the ass. To make it worse the hyper flash module I paid extra for shipped separately. Figured that out halfway through installing.

After

 

Same on my 2020

 

That's me.

 

I almost got green but figured it would get old after awhile. Tan was my #1 they made me want a Tacoma but they stopped in 2017 and it was too hard to find

 

Hyper flash? I thought it was just a switch to swap between modes

 

Freezing/shutting down: on my 18 taco I complained about it at every [free] service when new and got the range from blank stares to updating and reloading radio SW. Dealer never solved it. “Mysteriously” all problems disappeared when the free sirius subscription expired. Haven’t had any problems until I activated my free 3 months following a recent service. Now it’s freezing / shutting down again.

 

Looks like you either have this inline or not if you want rapid flash

 

Found a camper that fit my Taco and bought it. Timbrens are on the way to fix the squat on stock suspension. It's over gross, but so are 90% of motorhomes/RVs out there on the road and their insurance still covers them. It's on 10-ply tires and after I fix the squat with the Timbrens I'll call it a day and enjoy.

 

I'm having a "Smart Entry and Start System" error along with a "Check Charging System" error on my 2018 TRD Pro and it won't start. I have searched the threads here but haven't had any luck so I figured I'd try here. I disconnected the battery overnight and replaced the key fob battery and it still won't start. I can start using the remote start with the key fob so I know the key fob works and the battery is fine. This is the second time its happened in about 3 months. It somehow started last time after multiple battery disconnects and but now it won't start at all. Any ideas?
