Described the goo in the axle as a "Recall" So of course it isnt but thats what he called it,, So Toyota sales can fabricate a "Recall" his terms not mine, anyway the weasel deleted his post, John if I remember right, somewhere in AZ,

But back to Tech Jockeys Binder deal ??? do you spose he could see the write up,, ?

OR speak with the tech ? bet he has got a different story,, u
Yes Tech jockey did you ever get to talk to the tech ? or just dealing with the middle men ?

I know Rixxer, his words not mine, he called it a recall, So these axles have enough goop in them often enough it is common as a recall,

I know it aint a actual recall, But now for as much as a guy finds goop in these things ??? Hell Crawler had to build a "Eco seal" to save the entire planet,

What crap, Man I wish you could see this, Wise up Rixxer

Maybee it should have been, but the difference here its what is put in there,

not seal failure,

Thumbs down

You're being stupid again, francis.

How many of solid axle toyotas have you worked on now?
3?

How many have you seen that were low mileage original, un-touched, AS BUILT?

Oh yeah...... NONE.

Rix,

I do not know how many times I have to tell you this, It was obvious to me the thing was built for a fluid grease,

Not because I worked on a whole bunch of Toyotas, but all sorts of other rigs, all sorts of power transmission devices, in all sorts of applications from fork lifts, bob cats, lawn mowers, trucks cars you name it from every make and model,

I can see the engineering involved to contain a fluid grease, FACT,

plain as day,

And it just so happens that I had seen this type of grease over the years, never thought much about it, till,

A Toyota Service Manger Told me it was Private, much like he will tell tech jockey if he actually wants proof of the write up,,

I can see it, you cant because, your blinded by Toyota sales,

Come out Rixxer so you dont have to pull your stupid card and get thrown under the Bus, like you know they will,

Come out,

Okay, If you would have posted @ least one thing in this entire thread that remotely would give advise to Tech Jockey with his brake situation I would not have suspected you as a clown

So either your working for the "Darkside" of Toyota information services or just like to post stupid pictures, of sad pandas, unicorns, and little kittys playing with thread,

according to your profile, a 21 year old kid, Well laugh if you want but propagandist with much the same profile, working for Toyota information services post mis leading information , I have proof of that much,

So why dont you post up some info that will help tech jockey one way or another, than to just post up your stupid pictures,

I got my eye on you and you have posted nothing but crap, so post up some decent information or shut the hell up and get they hell out of here,

Your impeding my deprogramming of Rixxer, distracting him,

I guess my final comment on this is - recommendations for service are just that. However when you surround your recommendation with material lies derived from the service I pay for (inspection and measurement), you are one step from fraud. The remaining step is to inflict loss based on this previous act.

In hindsight I probably would have been smarter to film a professional measuring the brakes and then send the car in for a full brake job at dealer 1 - pads, rotors, shims and even the timing belt I need. Maybe order some new tires.

I could just point them to my youtube video when it came to paying.

That would have been classic!

This latest thought points to a missed opportunity.

Oh well!

Okay Doc your tracking with me, service dept is part of the marketing, why do you go to market,? to sell stuff,

Here read this,
At Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc. (TMS), we take pride in what the Toyota name represents—innovation, quality and reliability. From our associates and dealers to our suppliers and customers, our devotion to constant improvement results in an exceptional line of cars and trucks.

TMS, Toyota’s U.S. sales and marketing arm, oversees sales and other operations in 49 states.

Over see sales and other operations, the other operations would be the service,

so no big ramble there, we are on the same page Doc, unless you dont feel the service dept that keeps the lights on is "Marketing"

Ponder, research, TMS Supervises dealer marking, and service is main part,
Sorry, but you're completely off base. Service has nothing to do with marketing. If anything, Sales can be considered related to marketing.

Do you have any business sense at all? Have you ever had any sort of management position? I'm guessing that you haven't, based upon your total lack of knowledge about how a business like a dealership operates.

Seriously, stop crying about it already. You're not the first person who was ever treated dishonestly at a car dealership and you certainly won't be the last. If you truly believe this was fraud, then stand up for your rights and sue the dealership. You'll get nowhere, but at least you'll stand up for yourself in principal, right?

LOL, people like you make the worst customers ever...never happy no matter what happens.

Well...just comes back to the old cliche...if you want it done right, do it yourself.

So, grab a book and some tools...get your hands dirty...bust a knuckle or two...curse like a sailor...have a beer...repeat...

I think you should take your own advice and apply it to another thread.

Your way out of line Frank.

I completely agree, why do we tolerate these threads all degenerating into spam attacks by a not so "covert" vendor trying to sell some "mystery grease" that isn't applicable to almost ALL of our trucks? All while he randomly slams our vehicles, the dealers, the manufacture, the service procedures and new and old members here.

This thread should have been over on the second page... A dealer tech made a mistake and mis-measured a brake pad by the thickness of a dime... oh ah oo... My bet is that one tech actually measured it and other eyeballed it... again oh ah oo... not like this doesn't happen every day.

This wasn't a fraud, this was a mistake. Take note of which dealer was right, which was more careful and precises and take the truck their from now on. The sloppy dealer will figure out his problem when all of his customers have left.

I now return you to yet another completely pointless discussion about #0 #1 #2 grease.
