    Squealing serpentine belt.

    When to change new tires for my 2015 Tacoma? - with the penny

    Most if not all tires have a tread warning bar between the tread grooves that is at 3/32". But as noted before weather conditions must be considered. Also age of tires as they will become hard and start cracking. I think it's better to replace before 3/32" for safty issues.

    2012 Tacoma Corrosion Rust Compound (CRC) application at Toyota dealer

    I would think grinding out the rust before applying any kind of rust preventative would be standard procedure. Then use the inhibitor to stop any further rusting on the entire frame.
