    Propper shaft label

    I'm usually in the 200 forum but posting here for a good friend owning a 2011 Taco. He asked me to look under his truck for a noise he is hearing and I noticed a label on the propeller shaft that makes me think this is not the original one. He has owned the truck since 30k. Here is the label...

    Battery terminals material

    Got a group 31 battery that is mislabeled as having automotive posts but in fact it has 3/8 stainless terminals. My truck has OEM terminals, for automotive posts and I do not plan to change that, but only replace them with Slee billed terminals. For the experts here what is better: 1. stainless...

    What is under the driver seat

    Any idea what is under the driver seat carpet? It is making a noise like a fan or something grinding. It is there with the engine on or off. It is not the seat itself. I can feel the vibrations coming from unde the carpet. The noise is strong enough so I can hear it with the engine on and from...

    Cylinder numbering

    I expected to find this info pretty easy both here and on Inet, but didn't. The firing order was easy to find: 1-8-7-3-6-5-4-2 But when looking at numbering neigher the GM or Ford schema makes sense given the firi8ng order. GM is using [top of the table is front of the engine] LH...

    Propeller shaft service

    First time doing this job on this truck and read the manuals, the threads, and watched the videos. What I'm writing about is this part from the owner manual "re-torque nuts and bolts". To me re-torque means losing up the nuts/bolts then torque back to specs - 88Nm. Yet, I did not see or read...

    Winter tires year around

    I just got a new flat on already used tires (about 4/32" left), and this time the puncture is almost on the sidewall. Even if I patch it I don't think any shop will install it due to liability. I was planning on replacing them all before this winter but now I'm thinking I'll have to do it...

    Running R-1234yf refrigerant in a 2013 (replacing R-134a with R-1234yf)

    From my limited search/knowledge it looks like this should be possible. After all, in a few years everyone will need to use R-1234yf instead of the current R-134a without replacing their AC system. This is not unlike previous transition from R12 to R134a. Plus it is better for environment. But...

    Where is the TPMS button on the LX?

    I was looking in the 2013 LX owner manual in the Do-it-yourself maintenance section and it describes "How to initialize the tire pressure warning system" There is a mention about a button that I cannot find in my truck: Is the button somewhere else? If no button, how is the initialization...

    How hard to replace the left front parking sensor

    It looks like something hit my sensor (has a sizable paint chip on its face but it is not dented) and I'm also getting a warning of service required, and the parking alarm is beeping in the cabine. Didn't get a chance to hook up Techstream to see if there is a code. Is there a calibration to be...

    Chains for our trucks 285/50R20

    Hi guys, I'm running all season tires (they were new when I got the truck and I'm wearing them down before replacing w/ more suitable tire). I'm running OEM 20 size tires (285/50R20) and I know that is not a popular size here, but I found products to cover the entire spectrum, so it is the...

    Toyota bolt corrosion resistance

    Hi all, I own a '97 Camry and the '13 LX. I noticed that Toyota bolts even exposed to the elements for years are still in good condition. When I use aftermarket fasteners even zinc plated and all that they do not last. What makes the Toyota bolts so good, besides the $$? If you can get it as...

    Hi all, I replaced my tailgate glass and I had to remove the spoiler. The spoiler is attached using 3 clips some 3M tape and 4 bolts. The question is about the thin gaskets around the bolts holes. They are not in good shape after removal. Toyota does not list any for 2013 LX. There are some...
