Tips and Tricks on the 3rd Gen Tacoma

Dealer can do it.

 

Yep on the dealer, can't be done from head unit.

you turned the wheel and the power steering system surged and drew power from the engine. Engine saw a drop in RPM and opened the throttle body

 

CONIFER, AAChaoshand :
My truck chimes whenever you open a door, even if it has not been running, and when you shut it off,too. Does your's do this also?

 

Mine doesn't if the engine was off, but it does if I open the door and then turn off the engine. At first I was freaking out, (thinking I forgot to turn something off) but I looked everywhere and was in a rush so just left it.

 

On my 6spd, ever time I put it in reverse the damn thing beeps at me. Is there a way to disable this?

 

Got one of these. No more beeping.

It also sits the belt a little higher, making the seat belt a little less annoying for those times you do need to wear it. And makes it easier to put the seat belt on, in stealth so to speak, while driving... if that need arises.

Does rattle a little when not in use and plugged in, but if you position it down toward the seat that stops. A good purchase IMO.

 

At times yes. It may do it all the time and I just don't notice it.

 

what's the key for auto-headlights sensitivity? left is more sensitive? and maxed out means it has to be pretty dark out? i can't remember.

 

How about a numerical list? Lots more cool info in this thread.

Whats the difference between SR and SR5?

 

SR5:
These features either add to or replace features shown on SR

• Entune™ Audio Plus With Connected Navigation App28 Access more entertainment with SiriusXM19 and HD Radio™37 features.
• Charcoal Grille With Chrome Surround A stylish charcoal front grille with chrome accent adds a dash of boldness.
• Standard Fog Lights Fear no fog. Tacoma is ready to help guide you in tough weather.
• Keyless Entry With Engine Immobilizer29 Remote keyless entry system with lock, unlock and panic functions.
• 4.2-In. TFT Multi-Information Display All the info you need in one easy-to-read display.

 

No manual is SR5, I don't get that. They have one in the SR and the sport and off road.

 

Man. Wish i got the navi and fog lights

 

An issue that some of us with M/T have found, the clutch will momentarily stick to the floor in near zero degree temperature. Does not affect driveablility.

 

I hadn't heard that one, but it don't get that cold here often.

They only make what sells well. Sorry

 

Do they normally charge? I hate the nickel and dime sh!?

 

Here's one I learned the hard way:
If you want to lock your tow hitch, recovery shackle, or anything of the sorts, you'll need a class V hitch lock. The width of the factory receiver is 3" whereas most hitch locks are only 2.75" wide. You'll need to get a 3.5" wide hitch lock. I plan on sticking a few ⅝" stainless washers on either side of the lock to prevent rattles.
