    2008 Tundra snow plowing

    The jerking is the outer tire of the turn skidding to try to catch up with the inner tire. 4 wheel drive locks up the front axle so the two wheels turn together but the outer tire has to travel more distance to catch up. Think running track at the olympics. It only happens on dry pavement or...

    Anyone tow a 200 on a trailer with a 200?

    You can rent or buy a landscape/ utility trailer rated at 7000 pounds, two axles. The mesh ramp of those trailers need a couple of 2x12’s to keep the wheels from stretching the mesh. When my kids were in college I rescued a few cars this way.

    Bought an 08 tundra, TPMS headache

    So seriously why do we need sensors in the first place? Check the tires and pressures regularly and have a nice day. Sensors don’t prevent anything they just tell you what happened. A sensor won’t prevent a blowout like when I hit a granite curb in my wife’s car but as the car swerved to...

    Bought an 08 tundra, TPMS headache

    I don’t even bother with electrical tape. Driving almost to NYC having a nice morning the light went on. Odd, the tires are warmer. I wouldn’t have freaked out if I wasn’t in the middle of five lanes of traffic and no shoulder approaching the bridge at 70 mph. Nothing happened but it’s a...

    Eco-friendly solution to rodents chewing vehicle wiring

    Ya Heritage. My daughter has two dogs, three horses in the barn and the big garage with her Tundra and a couple other vehicles. Mice were rampant until she got her barn cat. “Pineapple” is happy and almost domestic. Sleeps in the walk out part of the basement in the cold weather. WIN WIN !

    2023 Tundra TRD - First 3000 Miles

    As a comparison , my 2015 5.7 with 68k got 18.1 on a round trip from Htfd to boston Logan airport, out and back maybe 5 miles town driving to pick the guy up. 500 extra pounds of toolbox, etc. 210 miles. Did it the old fashioned way, fill it, drive it, fill it and do the math. I think those...

    Back to old school 4wd, no more push button.

    Interesting. Mine is blinking too. The front axle is stuck unlocked but I effectively have all wheel drive.

    VSC TRAC - VSC OFF - Check Engine Light On - P0441 code

    That old and the gasket could be leaking. Like I wrote above, get an OEM ga$ cap, I was told by my shop there is something different/ better about the OEM.

    Temporary Rust Protection?

    If it’s black you may be thinking of Wool Wax. I have both and WW is gunkier and may stay on the truck longer than FF. A few spray cans of FF before the trip and a trip or two to the car wash or a home pressure washer after will get rid of most of it. The label says using a pressure washer with...

    Unknown sensor/button 2019 LC, under dash

    In our old Saab 900 there was a bunch of switches on the dash and by just dumb luck I came across, probably in a toy store, a switch that exactly matched the other switches in the car and it was marked “eject.” So I stuck it on and we told the kids if they weren’t good we would flip the...

    Any downside to steel Tundra wheels on a 200?

    They need to be black.

    RTH traveling, noticed rear brake hub(emergency brakes hat) getting hot

    Both sides? PB blaster or similar should free it up. Leave the parking brake off after that.

    Water leak again, wet passenger floor and now electrical problems - Pictures

    ^^^ Our old Saab 900’s had sunroof leaks when the drains clogged, one got kinked. Backing out of our old condo driveway with a sharpish turn dumped a cup of water on my wife’s neck. She was not pleased.

    KDSS Allen Screw Jam

    This stuff has saved my butt many times. It’s a lube plus it cools the metal so it contracts a bit. Not sure how to pull the part out. If you were twisting the part is probably jammed in there.
