2019 Taco studders going up hill. No check engine light. Of course dealership can’t recreate. The issue is driving me crazy. Only 41k miles. Someone recommended checking the VVT solenoid and cleaning. Has anyone had this issue? CAn anyone direct me to location of VVT solenoid. Thanks, in advance I’m new to the Taco community!
