What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Anyone lose their tailgate key yet? No? Just me? *sigh*

 

Man sorry to hear that, I just keep mine on my remote!

 

I did, but got the idea of the hiding in the center console, and of course I have no recollection where the hell I put it.

I'll tell you where it's not though; in the center console

 

Took it in for 5k service, said I wanted the transmission TSB, turn off the seatbelt chime and set the signal to 4 pulses.

They didn't change the oil, said they don't until 10k miles... a little annoyed about it but I guess that's what they think is best.

They applied the TSB update which is awesome, so so much better, definitely recommend.. felt the difference almost immediately.

Seatbelt chime still beep when I start the truck and my seat belt isn't on.. even though they said they turned it off, annoying but no biggy.

4 pulses on the signal is so much better!

 

Decals made by Far North by Design. Also got the TSB and I drove a lot today and there is a difference. It feels like a truck now.

 

My truck was there today as well for the update, dropped it off around 9a. My service rep wasn't aware of the tsb until I handed it over to him. Who'd you deal with?

 

I worked with an assistant manager. His name is Eliseo. I asked if other people have brought their trucks in and he said a few and he did one earlier today. That was you. That TSB made a big change in the way it drives. I drove all over SD today because it felt like a different truck.

 

whats tsb?

 

Toyota Service Bulletin. The one being referenced is this; https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...feeling-enhancments-pdf.441262/#post-12826297

 

Essentially is a flash for the truck to help alleviate a few transmission issues. Erratic shifting points are improved and the delay from reverse to drive is corrected. I'll find out about the delay tomorrow morning.

 

Added a voodoo bed rack

 

Forget the rack, look at that magnificent view!!! Wow.

 

thanks i just read about i fall under the category, now how do i go about it getting fixed do i need an appointment at the dealer or can i just stop by tomarrow? thanks alot for the help

 

Yeah the clouds kind of stick in the valley that we live so even when it's rainy it's pretty awesome.

 

Thanks for clarifying. You guys make a great product. I especially like the slots for zip ties. I was thinking of ordering the extensions some time in within the next week anyways. I also must confess that I got the idea form some where else on the form. I don't remember where and not sure who's bracket they used, but that's where I got the idea. I also have no problem if you use the picture. Let me know if you want a picture from a better angle.

 

Oxnard, awesome! Did they check the AT Fluid level? how long did you have to wait?

 

Figured Id wash it before it gets to be 100* out.

 

You must be doing home repairs or tearing out a bathroom. Why else would there be a red dipsy dumpster parked in front of your truck.
