TSB List for 2005+ Toyota Tacoma

"Description of Remedy Program : All known owners of the subject vehicles will be notified by first class mail. Toyota dealers will replace the rear leaf spring assemblies with improved ones. The owner letter will instruct vehicle owners who have paid to have this condition remedied prior to this campaign to seek reimbursement pursuant to Toyota's General Reimbursement Plan."

Where did you find this? I looked up my number and as yet no remedy is available, along with their FAQ on their Recall page, no remedy is mentioned yet.

 

Safercar.gov

It's in the list of 10 documents associated with the TSB. When I get on a computer I can get you the exact document referenced.

ETA - The information quoted was on Page 2 in the file titled: RCLRPT-14V604-0036.PDF (Recall 573 Report - Rev 2).

I tried to get the TSB done on my 2012 with the 3 leaf pack and they said it didn't apply. I've looked around here and can't find it. What did I miss?

 

New leafs. My rear suspension bottoms out when I hit dips on roads, and it sags when I'm pulling a light utility trailer with minimal weight on it.

 

The only newer TSB than the '05-'11 spring pack replacement has to do with heated seats (they recommend unplugging them or something). Something about the wires getting pinched.

I am checking on the spring pack TSB everyday, still no news yet, but I am hoping for notices to go out in the next week or two.

 

what about the steering wheel shake. surely there has to be a tsb on that now.

 

hey i got an 08 with the v6,does anyone have any info about the engine not wanting to start right away,it

 

Hi everyone. I have a 2012 toy Tacoma 4x4 4.0 litre 5 spd auto.Does any one know how to take the black covers on the back bumper off with out breaking or ruining them. Both black covers the two you step on to step into the bed of the truck. They are both flat and the stock ones from the factory. Thanks to all that help.

 

You, my friend, are in luck. I just painted my back bumper last week and put everything together over the weekend. There are three pieces. The center trim just pops off of the top of the bumper cover. You will need to remove your license plate and there are three plastic screw type rivets just behind/above the license plate Pry underneath and pull. It will take some effort, but you should not have to "hulk" it. The other two pieces have a clip and two 10mm nuts. You do not have to take the 10mm nuts completely out, but you will need to loosen them. Once they are loose, there is one clip you can pull up on and then push the cover piece off of the tab for the bolt (the bolts have tabs that slide in to a slot on the plastic cover.

For the plastic piece under the license plate, there are two tabs that you will need to pull up. There will either be a plastic rivet or screws underneath that will need to be removed. Then under the bumper, there will be two m6 10mm bolts that go into the bumper support that will need to be taken out. Should pop right off.

 

Hi all,

Do all these TSBs apply to the 2015 model year as well? Or did Toyota get smart and update each model year by resolving the TSBs? I'm most interested in anything affecting the engine, drive train, suspension and frame.

Thanks for your help

Oh yes!! THANK YOU


i suck at this!

 

Hey all! Great info on here, I took my 14 DC for the 10k service last week and mentioned a rear leaf squeak to the tech while he was working on the truck. He tried for over an hour to get the squeak to stop and finally told me that he would have to order a replacement set of springs for the truck because he could not get the squeaking to stop. Anyone else have a similar issue with their rear leafs?

 

Mine are squeaking like crazy, but I'm in an 09 with 75k miles. The dealer said their fix is pressure washing them.

 

Thanks for this posting. I have a 2005 tacoma double cab that is missing one of the covers. I didnt know the part #.

 

I think I found one that isn't posted yet. I'm not going to write it all up, but here's some of the gist:

T-SB-0080-12 MIL "ON" DTC P0456
Date of Issue: June 5, 2012
Service Category: Engine/Hybrid System
Section: Engine Control
Years: 2005-2011
Engines: 1GR-FE
VDS(s): JU4GN, JU62N, JU9GN, KU4HN, KU72N, LU42N, LU4EN, MU4FN, MU52N, TU22N, TU4GN, TU62N, UU42N
Applicable Warranty: This repair is covered under the Toyota Federal Emission Warranty. This warranty is in effect for 96 months or 80,000 miles, whichever comes first, from the vehicle's in-service date. Warranty application is limited to occurrence of the specified condition described in this bulletin.

Some 2005-2011 model year Tacoma vehicles witha 1GR-FE engine may exhibit a MIL "ON" condition with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0456 - Evaporative Emission Control System Leak Detected (Very Small Leak) - when no leak is present. The Engine Control Module/ECM (SAE term: Powertrain Control Module/PCM) logic has been modified to reduce the possibility of this condition occurring.

(At this point they go into 4 pages of warranty information, 2 pages of calibration numbers, a page of tools, and a big picture of a diagnostic tester with a NO symbol over it)

Repair Procedure:

1. Using TIS Techstream, check for stored DTCs. If only DTC P0456 is present, proceed to step 2.
2. Clear DTCs
3. Confirm that the fuel cap is tight. If it is loose, tighten the cap and finish the repair. If it is not loose, go to step 4.
4. Check for the Authorized Modifications Label affixed to the vehicle in the location shown in Figure 1. confirm if the ECM (PCM) calibration has been updated. If the calibration ID listed is NOT the latest ECM (PCM) calibration -- go to step 5. [note: the label is on the underside of the hood near the latch which says, 'Toyota Motor Corporation Authorized Modifications'. They show the following fields: 1) Replacement ECM (PCM) Part Number (i.e., 89661-04A34), 2) New Calibration IDs (i.e., 30426400) 3) Dealer Code 4) Date Completed) 5) This SB Number]
5. Flash reprogram the ECM (PCM)

From here on they talk about using a TechStream and a GR8 Battery Diagnostic Station to flash the system, which is 2 more pages of instructions.

I was out of warranty at the time I had this occur, so it cost me a neat $400 from an independent shop. If your truck is facing the same issue as mine, there will be a check engine light, the thrown code, but there will be no leak. The repair shop will clear the code, and the code will come back in a few months until you finally have this taken care of.

 

I'm with you on this one. I haven't done any hard search, my rig has been to the dealer to fix it (balance and alignment), but the issue is still there.
