    The service manager realized they screwed up and they're changing the part. He didn't come out and say they screwed up though :mad:. Apparently the FJ release cyl fits the Taco but the Taco part doesn't fit the FJ. He said that it "really doesn't matter which one is in there"...right. They're different parts for a reason, CHANGE IT!

    I've gotten some similar advice...considering it. I've got my extended warranty, factory one is almost up. My plan for now is to keep a close eye on it and drive the shit out of it. The thing growls like a mother when it's cold out so I'll just wait till winter to take it back. The recent warm weather has quieted it down a bit. In the meantime I'll put some MT90 in...and do the 60k service myself. They don't deserve my money.

    I didn't see this post earlier. Makes me feel a bit better about just keeping an eye on it for now. Thanks.
