    8k miles. Just a slight reverse to drive delay. Hoping to have the rev1 done soon for a fix.

    I read a lot of people having issues with the automatic transmission on the 2017 Tacoma. I wonder what about the manual transmission?

    Automatic - have the trans fluid checked before you leave the parking lot . This was an earlier 2016 issue . Seems to be alleviated now .

    Mechanical issues upshifting into fourth gear when cold .

    There was an early design flaw with some of the manual transmissions .After the transmission warmed up , it was extremely difficult to move the shifter

    Use disc brake grease on the pivot points and that will take care of that old barn door sound.

    Just saying, lots of members are awfully quick to tell people to use the search and call them lazy and you're gonna get flamed and blah blah blah.
    When the same argument can be made to said members.

    Cameras will not beat Bigfoot in a fight..! You won't even know he hit you with a big tree...!

    If it has "night vision", your relatives MIGHT be able to see your demise.... cuz we all know that Big Foot only roams at night.... For real, I seen that on a US TV show where these 5 nitwits roam the forest with shotguns at night... They are ready to shoot anything that makes a sound... hehe...

    They should be chasing Unicorns...at least Unicorns come out during the day...!!:thumbsup::thumbsup::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

    Clutches are weak . Already burned 1 out at 15k miles at 24k miles now can feel the same thing happening. Going for a stage 3 and a lightweight fly wheel

    I have 18k on my Sport DCSB MT and just over one year ownership - not one issue with the tranny. I seriously love this truck and enjoy driving it daily. The clutch is not weak, I have towed multiple occasions (hauled loam, boat, building materials etc..) and done a little bit off roading. I use this truck everyday and highly recommend it.
