Tacoma 2019 TRD Sport Engine problem

Hes got 21k km , so 12k miles. You think its possible that early? . I did notice the cover shaking a bit more than mine, when he opened the hood. Hmm..

 

Holy shit, black soot? Interesting. My engine is loud as fuck and sounds like a diesel, i believe thats how they all are. What was wrong with the transmission?

 

Not a bad idea at all, OP definetily should try it.

 

It seems extremely unlikely, but if its a factory defect, it could be.

Shaking also can be indicative of a misfire, but usually the computer catches those these days, although I'm not 100% they'll always light up the CEL.

 

He did mention to me that he had some misfires in the beginning, when he bought the truck. No CEL currently.

It did seem a bit slower than mine though, like a hair. Which is strange because i got e rated all terrains.

 

Yeah that makes zero sense - you can use whatever gas the minimum required is in the manual. I can't imagine the manual says to use Premium.

 

damn you hear about how great Canada is with social healthcare and everything and here they are giving you crappy gas

 

Actually we have really good gas here, the dealer is just bullshitting him.

 

I put my foot on to paddle and got 5 seconds or more lag before the truck took off. The dealer went through multiple TSBs but each time after a month or so the truck was back to the same as before.

 

There is a recall on the low-pressure fuel pump on certain 2019 Tacoma’s. It’s a fairly new recall I believe. I have 2019 trd sport 4x4 with this recall and have a little sluggishness
