WEX, are you running the stock tires? Have a lift kit? Just curious as to what's different. Are we comparing apples to apples? Your mileage numbers are the first I've heard in reverse order that isn't a hybrid electric.

That's the Dome light bulb in the center of your ceiling. The one that will make the biggest difference of the set. Just pop the lens cover with a thin bladed screwdriver and swap it out. ( careful, the stock one gets blistering hot if on for even a few seconds)

Just had TSB-00-77 downloaded to my 2016 (Nov 2015 build) TRD 2WD 3.5L Automatic yesterday. I was plagued with the morning delay from R to D shift every day now for 13.000 mi. My fluid levels were perfect from the factory ( I have the tow pckg and cooler ). The TSB fixed the slow R to D problem...

Bought and installed from Toyota. Preordered but NOT installed at the dealer. Otherwise you have to pay the dealer parts dept. hourly rate. My point was there's nothing to it. Very simple. I've seen a couple for sale already online. Guessing owners didn't want them. For kicks I'll check my...

I had mine installed at the port (San Diego) vs. the dealer to avoid the labor charges. I've had it off a half dozen times and there's nothing special to the install. Drilling and installing two threaded inserts in the center of the front bed rail for a support post is about it. Don't see why...

Pulled out of the car wash and electronics/sensors go crazy? Has to be water in a network or sensor connector. Did you spray wash under the hood? It will be interesting to see if this still exists after it all dries out.

Go to Harbor Freight. A few to choose from. Well built and won't break the bank

Bought the same Harb Freight OBDII/CAN reader and it works great on the Taco, Venza and Corolla. Love the internal code library. No more book or web searching for codes. Also shows all the live data which the motor running. All temps, voltages, mass airflow, Cat temps, rpm, hours, throttle %...

Look for the post in this thread titled "LED Lights" . EliteTech on Amazon has a 9 bulb kit for $15. Installed all in less than 30 mins. Love the hue and brightness. Great company too. I had a bad dome bulb that started strobing right away. They sent 2 replacements in 2 days without a question.

Low, Med , High in my TRD and all 3 are noticeably different

lol - A turbo button ..... Aye Carumba

U.S. Trucks call for 0/20w or 5/20w synth so don't know what you're doing with 40w

That's a good idea. I put on surgical gloves and the extra grip did the trick.

Remember that in 2007 the OBDII protocol was updated to OBDII CAN. ( a new network language protocol ) Pre 2007 OBDII readers can't read the CAN format. All the auto shops sell the new OBDII CAN readers. Some even have ABS testing as well. The newer units are backwards compatible to the...

Thanks for the tip. Ordered, recd in less than a week, installed all 9 LEDs in less than 30 mins. Love the brightness and color of the interior lighting. My wife doesn't like the LED cool tint on the passenger side mirror so I'll switch that one back to incandescent bulbs for a warmer color.

Did you by chance have your ECT button turned on? It knocks me into the low teens with loads of torque and power. When off its 20/22

Same lunge in fwd and rev when engine is warming up. Gets your attention !!!

Same experience around 5K mi. I've heard this Trans controller learns your driving habits. It seems to rev a little higher between gears now (like I like) without up shifting so fast to lug/Eco mode. I still have the 2 to 3 second slide-into-drive in the am or whenever the Trans is cold. Fluid...

Not having that issue on my 2016 (built Nov 15'). It downshifts in cruise for hills and headwinds and goes right back to the highest gear it can. Note that 6th being a second overdrive is a VERY tall gear. The slightest hill or headwind will cause a downshift. If you raise your vehicle, increase...

Congratulations! .... and it's Royals Blue! ;)
