TSB List for 2005+ Toyota Tacoma

I wonder how hard it would be to find the right size and install something like this airsoft barrel center bushing (top right in pic).

 

I've got some mega zip ties in my truck, gonna throw one in today, thanks!

+1. Before driveline replacement, felt like driveline was turning halfway before differential started turning Lol

 

How do you print the TSB off of the list? My truck squeaks first thing in the morning or after it has sat for awhile.

 

FWIW today I had my truck in for service and yet again complained about vibes while acellerating and the Toyota service rep told me that basically toyota is now just considering the vibrations a characteristic of the trucks, dating back to 2005. Said they replace and try to fix components but nothing works. Basically I paid 30k for a truck with vibrations while accelerating. I told him it was unacceptable and will be contacting corporate.

 

Good luck

 

I second this question.
My service is due before too long- how do I go about requesting they do all the TSB's?

 

This is most likely a result of torque converter and or driveshaft issues, I am having my entire power train swapped to a toyota 3.0 D4D diesel will update here if the vibes are gone after.

 

Link doesn't work

 

Not all Tacomas exhibit every problem covered by a TSB. TSB's are issued to provide guidance on correcting "common" issues. They won't do a fix that isn't needed. For example, there are a couple TSB's for certain wind noises. If you don't have the noise, there is nothing they can or should do.

If there is something bugging you about your truck, check to see if there is a TSB that covers it (make sure it covers your VIN so it actually applies) and have the TSB number ready when you take it in. Even if there is no TSB, let the service writer know about the problem. If the truck is under warranty, they should fix it whether there is a TSB or not.

 

Bought my truck last year and I am planning on buying a trailer this coming spring. I looked under the body and there only 3 leafs. My truck has 86000miles on it. Would this still be covered to get the leafs upgradeded to 4?

 

I called in their hotline and my dealer to ask about this stuff-
The '13 has NO TSB for leaf packs and had an obsolete TSB about drive line vibration from 0-15 mph. The dealer had no idea what I was talking about and directed me to the customer service hotline who understood the term TSB and confirmed what I said above.
Looks like you're out of luck, '13

 

Any access cab owners get the TSB in the mail today? Supposed to bring your truck in to fix the rattling in the rear doors due to the seat belts coming loose or something.

 

I talked to a guy yesterday (said he is a member on here),he asked me if i had my rear leaf springs changed out by Toyota,nope , he said they had a TSB on them,of course i never heard of this and the dealer never made me aware of it ,i have a 2005 four door,were they supposed to replace the springs? and of course since it is out of warranty i highly doubt they will change any thing free. Just venting thanks.

 

I plan on it next time i have to go to the dealer,was just curious of anyones experience with this topic.

 

just to straighten out the common misnomer here that a lot of people in this thread keep implying. dealerships are not reluctant to do warranty work or tsb's. in fact, they love it. i worked in the parts department at a toyota dealership for a few years up until this semester of college(because its my last.) parts guys(and the manager), mechanics, and service writers love doing warranty work.

most of the time, its simple fixes and its easy money because they do it so many times they get to flag more hours than what it takes. also, its work that they dont have to try to sell and usually ends up in them up-selling other work. it adds to everyone's bottom line and helps them get closer to their monthly bonus checks.

 

Yeah my dealership does warranty and tsb work on a dime.

 

"we're in discussion about the in-ability to haul much in the bed and may be getting a heavier leaf pack"
Go for the four leaf pack and not the "Beefed Up Three Leaf pack" they put on mine. Without anything in the box the leafs are pretty much flat (no curve).
