    Changed oil/filter after 600 miles of driving with some seafoam in the crankcase.

    0w20 Mobile1 full synthetic
    OEM filter purchased at my local Toyota dealership.

    We shall see if this elimintes my random cold start rattle and random cold start low oil pressure warning.

    The eBay OEM filter really has no discernable difference. I'll be cutting it open to see if the internals are the same. I'm really not confident that the filter is the problem, but we shall see

    I just put 5 drops of essential oil (scent of your choice) onto the cabin air filter when I change it. Seems to last forever, and I don't have to see the dangling tree in my peripheral vision, or worry about some tiny piece of USB chinesium draining my battery, or chirping at the mother country. :) I use "Cedar" and it make the cab smell like a (clean) hamster cage instead of "Twice Butt"

    I did that except I put way too much essential oil on the cabin filter and it would take your breath away, way too strong. It was called Mountain Pine and it smelled like someone sh#@ a Christmas tree. Next time I’ll just try a couple of drops, lol.

    AWE Exhaust, KARTBOY exhaust hangers, custom 1/0 exhaust grounding, lots of Titanium hardware from my old builds, silly JDM bits from my old Subaru builds, Uniden Bearcat Off Road CB, Firestik 2 w/custom CF mount, custom KARTBOY plate frame with Rigid Ind Spot on ball head mount, Yakima Mega Warrior w/custom CF cross brace. ARP extended studs (not installed yet), Optima Red Top, Siless Insulation in cab. Diode Dynamics LEDs throughout... More titanium fasteners. K&N intake snorkus delete. Greddy hose clamps throughout. DBA 4000XS Brake Rotors. TRD PRO fogs. Dakine Tail Gate Pad. More to come of course.
    Finished up troubleshooting and wiring the fog lights. Now I need to do the headlights to match. I am being lazy and not searching. I'm tired. Any suggestions for "white" headlight bulbs, DRL replacements, and high beams? Much appreciated. Been at work since 0400. I'm running on fumes and my brain isn't working well...:crazy:

    C4 Rock Runner finally showed up on Friday last week (ordered on BF lol) and then modded it with my own custom bullbar on top yesterday. Overall a great bumper, super lightweight and I love the look, going to continue tinkering with it though.

    As it came from them:
