    2009 Tacoma V6 access cab 6spd Barcelona rec
    Hey everyone,
    I bought a 2009 Tacoma access cab 4wd, V6 6spd, Barcelona Red, 97k odo. My frame is not cherry, but it very good, which is strange for being an original New Jersey truck. But I am having problems....here they are:
    Clutch does the squeal thing in neutral, pressed in goes away.
    Right side pull after one alignment, lug centric balance(learned about on here). Carfax said right front wreck, but test drive was spot on. After balance, steering wheel stopped fighting me. @ low speeds fine, but 50 + goes to right. But owner of the stealership wouldn't let me drive it the day I came to pick it up 2 miles to his main office. When he did He went up over some cement thing on the side of the road to do a u turn into his main lot, and this caused the oversized 265/75/16 tires to rub the fender flare on the right. When I got it home(2-3 hrs from stealership which was in Philadelphia)the fender flare was loose and the black fender seal was loose flapping in the wind, still is after 2weeks.
    Next, but just yesterday, on start up there was an electrical sound coming from the engine bay, first time.
    The stealership said they put new pads on, during balance @ garage I checked, didn't lie thank you Jesus. But my brakes have fayed, but this after 2 weeks.
    I live in klingerstown on a very rough road. Sometimes I hear a loud rattle
    Of some roughness in road. I do have the leaf spring Toyota replacement campaign ordered.
    Also, in the a.m. the engine has a little bit of a rough idle, but goes away. Checked oil, but may be way up, might not, but my garage floor is flat. One night did not set e brake, not in gear, no coast. Dipstick hard to read, but is over filled some for sure. Engine is super clean, hardly any rust in engine bay, lots of power, clutch perfectly stiff, helps with release, love the feel, but it came with only 30 day warranty, I have until 2/16, should I keep it or take it back?
    Also, heater fan is making noise.
    Can I solve these problems on my own? Send links or threads if you think I should keep it. I'm a full time Pastor, but I am 45 and am somewhat mechanical and tentative with repairs, it's my only vehicle. Suggestions, opinions, HELP PLEASE! IN A QUANDARY. This is my 3rd Tacoma (01 4wd sc, 5sp-02 ext cab 4wd 5sp). Suggestions! Thanks so much, God Bless you all.
