My wonderful sealed transmission

Yea there’s a 14mm drain bolt and a “check” plug with an Allen. This is the one you pull with the engine running in park and fluid within check range

 

I'll be damned..Thats first on my list tomorrow..Thanks Empty Lord....
I'm not too much of a rookie..This truck is just new to me and I haven't had enough time to give it my undivided attention...I will update you tomorrow..Thanks again !

 

Stupid shit my a service dude told me...Thats a helluva idea !!

 

any time!

 

I went by the Toyota dealership yesterday...I went to the garage door where the mechanic techs were and managed to talk to a guy....I asked him if he'd ever heard of the line of shot about the blinking drive indicating low trans fluid...He just laughed when I told him it was one of their service writers...We had a long conversation about Tacomas and he gave me some great advice...Gonna drop the pan & change the filter and whatever fluid is in the bottom...Case closed...
