Maintenance

My truck is telling me I need to do maintenance on it. When I go to schedule an appointment with my dealer online it asks what I want done. How do I know what I need done? It’s my 10k so I’m assuming oil change, is there anything else? Should I ask for the newest TSB? Thanks!

Truck is a 2017 TRD OR DCSB w/ 10k on it.

 

Ask for the TSB - but also look at your owners manual there's routine/scheduled maintenance guidelines at x amount of miles. I'd assume for you tire rotation/oil change at the very minimum.

 

Perfect thank you. Do I ask for the TSB when I get to the dealer or beforehand online?

 

The Maint Req light is an oil change reminder.

 

Noted.

 

Actually, the 3rd gen's head unit (OP has an OR, so the same HU as mine) has a whole page full of "reminders" you can set or turn off.

I turned them all off.

 

The 10K maintenance is oil change, rotate tires, top up fluids and basic inspection. That is what I am seeing from my maintenance booklet.

 

Jesus christ...


This is getting out of hand

 

I wonder how many dealers get their dirty hands in there and set up reminders on that screen? Lol, yeah, the yellow triangle of death will bring them in!

JK, it's annoying though.

 

So...... why waste your time in this forum then?

 

I asked for mine to be done when I got there, it doesn't take long! That light will come on for your 20K 30k 40K, I'm at 45k and all I have had done so far are my oil changes!

 

Sorry to be a jackass, but the answer is right in your glove box, you know the manuals to a $35,000 / 4,000lb+ piece of machinery you just bought. Anyhoo, here is the link and your answer is on page 39 - https://www.toyota.com/t3Portal/document/omms-s/T-MMS-18Tacoma/pdf/T-MMS-18Tacoma.pdf

 

It comes on every 5k but the oil change is every 10k, it's more like a reminder to rotate the tires.

 

Mine never comes on...

 

I never fill out an online form. Just call it in. If they're competent or can at least read, they should set you straight. Pretty minimal stuff at 10k, as said above.

 

Just ask for a 10k service on a Tacoma.They don't need every item listed out. Ask for the TSB if you feel you need it. If you like how your truck drives right now leave it.
