15k "service" help me to uderstand this

So I went last friday to get my 15k service and I assumed they changed oil and oil filter but they didn't... I waited almost 1 hour and a half just to get my tires rotated?!?! (at least I marked them to be sure they did it)

So, am I missing something here?

Shouldn't our trucks (2.7l) get an oil and oil filter replacement every 5k!? Wtf...

Please if someone knows more about this explain me if this is usual?

Ps: if this is "normal" f. it... I'm going to change the oil and filter by myself... now I know why they offer "free" maintenance....

 

What does your manual say is the recommended 15k service?

 

I believe the 2.7 is running synthetic and only changed every 10k miles.

 

It says to change oil if truck is under stress.. towing, heavy loads..

I'm not mechanic or engineer man but I'm so used to change my oil every 5k..if it's normal to skip oil change at this point, I'll do it myself just for my peace of mind..

 

But I want to make sure that is not the "stealer" that is trying to screw me...

 

It's normal to skip the oil change at this point.

If you're curious, you can do an oil analysis to confirm whether or not you should spend the money on a 5k oil change. I'd go with what the nice folks at toyota recommend... and be willing to bet that it's still overkill.

 

hi sir ours our 2.7 is every 5k just had my first 5k service done and the service writer was like no its every 5k the reason I no this is if you go to Toyota care under faq section click it and it gives you the intervals I believe its our 2.7 and one of the hybrids as well even with the synthetic service writer said yes sir I o see it here my apologies hope this helps claudiomartinof

 

Stealership isn't trying to cheat you if that's what your manual says. They're going to follow Toyota's guidelines. So, whatever the manual says for 15k is what they're supposed to do.

 

sorry meant to write service writer said no its every 10k

 

even if I had the 3.5 I wouldn't go past 5k that's nuts to go 10k

 

There's a dealer recommended service and factory recommended service. They aren't the same and you need to figure out which you paid for.

 

Pssss......they didn't change your oil at 5k miles either. Sshhhhhh

 

I will let Toyota do the free oil change at 10k and 20k. I changed it myself at 5k and will do it at 15k. Keep in mind if you do it yourself, you have to drop the skid plate and it does use a cartridge type filter. Here is another thread on this topic.

I go with manufacturer that's what it says man all engines every 10k accept 2.7 liter

 

My manual says every 5k, so I mark my filter and tires before.going in for a service. I would take it back if your manual states the oil should be changed, regaRd less if it is full senthetic.

 

Toyota.com go to Toyota owners then to faq there it all is man

 

Your 2nd Gen has a different maintenance schedule than 2016 and 2017 models

 

You've done an oil analysis? Please post the results, I know we'd love to see what Blackstone said about your Tacoma's oil at 5k miles.

 

My truck will never see a dealer for any Toyota "care" maintenance, I'll do it myself, that way it's done right.

 

dealership I go to has a monster window shows entire service area can see the guys doing it all when my toyotacare is done il be doing it myself as well
