    Didn’t realize there were 2wd Sports?

    I bought my 2015 with 32k miles and immediately did the following:
    Oil/filter
    Diffs/xfer case
    (Only rear diff for you)
    Engine air and cabin filter

    And then at 60k I did a drain and fill on the tranny.

    Thanks, I did the oil and spark plugs already and the air filters are next. Checked the rear diff on the weekend and it was still a good color but I'll change it anyway.
    Yeah, being my first Taco my ignorance thought it was simply a base model (2wd) and a TRD package (4wd).
    Nope.... had to learn the hard way.

    Have you noticed any intermittent vibrations in idle? My only recent experience with that dealt with a vacuum leak or the brakes but I don't think that's it.....
    I saw a post on here where a guy noticed it acting up while in drive, ended up installing a VVTi intake and solenoids and it fixed the issue where most thought it was a torque converter.
    Although perhaps this being in idle it could be something totally different. Since changing the plugs and cleaning the throttle body it vibrates a lot less when warmed up, still pretty heavy when starting up from cold.
