    Well if you really do have a V6 4.0L

    Not sure how this is confusing. Sure you got a V6?

    At this point, just post a photo of the engine bay with the hood open.

    We’ll confirm.

    no way you have the 3.5L in your 2006.

    the only two engines in the 2nd gen Tacoma (2005-2015) from Toyota (excluding any engine swap shenanigans):
