Oil and more oil...
Time for oil changes in all 5 holes on the 2019 5th gen; coming up on 100K miles:

1. Amsoil 0W-30 Signature in the engine with a TRD "fuzzy" filter.
2. Amsoil 75W-90 gear oil in the front pumpkin.
3. Amsiol 75W-110 gear oil in the rear pumpkin.
4. Toyota WS Transmission fluid change. Done at the stealership...
5. Redline MT-LV in the transfer case. This is now approved as an equivalent to the Toyota LF, high dollar, fluid.

New plugs on order...
New U-joints later...

Just stripped my transmission pan drain plug today when I drain and fill transmission fluid… Blaming my cheap harbor freight torque wrench

The the exact same thing with the exact torque wrench. I will never use those again. Had to buy a new pan, gaskets, etc. etc.

That happened some time ago with a snap on torque wrench bought at ebay, now even with the torque wrench I always take good attention to the feel. After snug it becomes hard, anything past that is a major risk. Last time I did transmission check plug tried 15 ft/lbs and it didn´t click, went back to 12 ft/lbs it´s all good, the feel was it was already really hard. With the drain/check plug after the crush washer is crushed there´s very little extra torque needed, got with the feel.
