    Nothing big. Topper and a sleeping platform that doubles as a bike platform.
    This is my first introductory post after lots of forum stalking so I apologize if I ramble but I'll get the hang of things eventually.

    Got a 2010 Tacoma TRD Sport last year and so far it's been awesome. First Tacoma and first truck. And my first real foray into doing work myself on my truck. I've avoided dealerships but still generally paid other people to do it for me. With this truck though I felt like tackling stuff myself and hopefully will even get into some mods eventually.

    Long story short my most recent adventure in self maintenance was replacing an O2 Sensor (big deal I know, :p). anyway it seemed to go really well, got rid of my P0136 code except 50km later I started to get a P0138 code. I'm going to try disconnecting the sensor and cleaning the connections and disconnecting the battery tonight, hopefully that'll take care of it. If not any suggestions? Brand new sensor so I don't really think it's that and I'm not really sure what else to do if it's shorting somewhere.


    Thanks in advance and looking forward to getting advise when I do start doing some mods down the road.

    Hahaha, and I already screwed up... how's that for an intro. I'll repost my question in the appropriate topic area. Sorry everyone.

    I live in an area where there are very limited trails open to street legal 4X4, so travel or stealth is a must. I drive a 2012 DC Baja TX which is my second Tacoma, the first was a 2007 SR5, 4X4 4cyl stick. Anyhow, I'm looking forward to being a TW member and helping any way I can.
