What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

have a link where you bought it? Looks good….I’ll be getting a different team though.

 

I would expect nothing less than another team.

I took the emblem off the front of the truck, went to a local graphic/wrap shop, and asked if they could do it. They emailed me two option a few days later, I picked option B, and then they called me when it was done. Since they printed the entire thing, I also got the extra one they printed to fit all the way across the sheet of material.
$40 + tax.

 

All fixed. Thanks @Discount Tire road haz warranty for under :45 in and out.
Here’s the culprit! anybody recognizes what kind of hardware is this?

 

Ok checked settings, phone setting is at max (16).

 

Try selecting voice isolation on your phone while you are on a call in the truck

 

Thats on a stock suspension?

 

Pieced together some brackets from the local ace hardware. Still need to paint the plates as they aren’t stainless. Pretty happy with the result.

 

Dialed in some more!

 

Wow huge. No idea what it is.

 

check volume on phone

 

Crazy....I just had this problem in mine the past week or so. Went into the truck settings and everything was good there. Unpaired and re-paired my phone also. My son suggested to me to turn up the volume on my phone while he was on the line with me. It did the trick....give it a shot. I-phone here. I must have turned it down at some point and it remembered the setting.

 

First oil change on 23 3.5L Offroad.
1260 miles of some highway ,two lane and one day of light off-road travel.
Small bits of metal caught in the filter as you can see but not bad for a brand new mass produced engine.
Some was ferrous,some not.
About what I expected to see,the OEM filter was obviously doing it’s job.

While I had it on my lift I finished undercoating it with Cosmoline
RP-342 .
I tested the RP-342 ,Fluid Film and Corrosion Free 3000 an spots on a different vehicle and decided on the RP-342 for the higher exposure areas and the some of the areas like the tops of the inner fender wells in the rear quarter panels I am going to try the Corrosion Free3000 .
Only time will tell how it works ,although Toyota is doing a way better job of coating the frame than they used to.

 

Started an oil change on Monday and found out that the guys at the Valvoline oil change shop stripped the bolt heads for the engine oil filter access panel cover on the TRD front skid plate from one of the times they did the oil change. Got over it and proceeded to just take the whole skid plate off to continue with the oil change. Gonna need to find some replacement bolts and hopefully remove the current bolts without too much trouble.

On a brighter side, got to finally try a swing out 180deg awning, the Darche Eclipse. Installed it last night and am liking it. Really glad that it still allows for the truck to clear the height clearance for the apartment garage gate. It’s kinda small; so, I’ll need to try it out in the wild soon to see how much shelter/shade it really provides. Might add some tarp for walls or get their wall attachments later on.

 

It's been a few days, but I put the amber lights on and the decals, thinking of a roof rack (Prinsu probably), loving how this truck looks! Can't wait to find the time to take it off roading

 

Just a casual Gallardo in the background nbd

 

Correct, the iPhone remembers the volume setting fore each device it's been connected to individually. If the volume is up for your headphones but down for the truck, it will remember the prior settings of the truck when you connect again, and you need to adjust the volume on the phone while it is paired. I usually like that feature but now and then it gets me.
@TekITGuy

 

Damn! That is a good looking AC! Makes me miss my ‘17 AC.

 

yes

 

That's the key. You have to do it while on the call.

 

@TekITGuy, I can’t confirm on my head unit right now because I recently lost my Taco, but if you haven’t solved this yet, here are two things to try:

1.) I think the setting on the head unit that helped out my iPhone when I first set it up was under the voice guidance volume level.

2.) I always use CarPlay with a cable, so that disables the volume buttons on the phone. But if you’re using Bluetooth, try to make sure that Siri is actively talking, and when she’s talking, try adjusting with the head unit knob and the volume buttons to make the volume higher. (There seems to be two different volume settings.) When this happened to me, I had trouble getting Siri to talk long enough to make the adjustments... Found a trick on the Internet, just say, “Hey Siri can you beatbox for me?” Lol

Good luck!
