Lexol might work. I've read all the advice here and, as a first step, used (very) liberal amounts of my trusty old 303AP (from a spray bottle, I buy this stuff by a gallon for my boat) - spraying it on the seats and plastic, all over and under. Eliminated 99.9% of the squeak, and I am ecstatic...

THank you, very helpful! Like the foam pad idea a lot. --

The squeak - coming out of somewhere in the middle/2nd row seats - is making me insane. Need to figure this out before I drive off the road. It's not the headrests. Only when the seats are empty. And tilting the seats back does not help in my case, that much I know. I thought I would check in...

Very good point, we are at 400’ in MO but getting ready to trailer to Lake Powell. I don’t think 93 is even available in Utah! —

@TeCKis300 Thanks for this fine recommendation, can't believe how long I put up with inferior aux mirror(s)... AND those come with their own bag/soft case which is very nice. They are sold as a pair, which I somehow failed to notice when ordering (it does say: "TWIN PACK", lol), cost me extra...

I haven’t done any very long tows with the PC installed yet, but a couple of short ones and I didn’t even think about this. The shifting is more predictable as the throttle response curve is linear and predictable so it feels more in control with no surprise shifts, so to speak, if that makes...

I have had my 2017 LC200 updated per TSB, it took two trips and some persuasion but they did it. The difference is noticeable. There is still some overrevving in 1st but mostly when cold, and I'm thinking it is actually the torque management issue. But with the PC - the truck is just a...

@Markuson @JohnJB Love this forum - thank you guys! --

What are the symptoms associated (caused by) discharged or undercharged KDSS? Reading this thread - I maybe wrong - I think I have seen regular bolts, not allen heads, in those actuators... I better double check... --

Thank you for all the useful info you post! Would you recommend this mirror? I'm looking for a clip-on extension for towing with my 2017 LC200. I have had several cheapo units in the past with straps (key word: several, lol). TIA I think I found the answers...

Okay, not exactly, but close. The joys of Midwest boating in our muddy rivers. Long story short, as my Meramec River MO marina flooded with some 30ft of water above "normal" I needed to pull my boat out... w/all launch ramps in the area under water. Well, with ramps gone I had to get creative...

So - would this be 6th in 8 speed LC models ? TIA --

Quick update, after a couple days of riding on "empty" (depressurized) bags I seem to be back to the truck's regular height, measuring slightly below 22", somewhere around 21 3/4" (from the center of the wheel to the fender's lip) - so all is good! I do not have a pressure gauge that would seem...

That is also what DAP tuners claim, new Tundra? ECU/ECM pull timing with fuel grade/octane. I believe it to be correct. There is no question premium 93 octane fuel generates discernibly more power as compared to regular 87 (in my 2017 LC). I’ve done this now over and over again to...

Okay, that is helpful, thank you! I just ran out and measured this height - I'm at about 22"! This is after I released some leftover air so the bags were not empty, were still pressurized after I did a bunch of driving today. If I have it right, I might have dropped almost an inch compared to...
