Thank you everyone, who took time to share their knowledge and advice. It is very much appreciated! I checked the battery health again this morning.. still low at 12.21V. I have looked at my options including the Odessey, Optima Red Top, Energizer AGM, Interstate MTP and the Kirkland. At...

Wife jumped in the T4R last evening at work, and it wouldn't start. Two or three attempts later, if finally starts for her. I poked around last night, battery was 12.37V sitting in the garage, and charging around 13.9 V when running. Let it sit all night in the garage and its 12.11V this...

Back to shop again on Friday for Safety Inspection and before I went, I checked for oil leaks. With this whole Covid-19 mess I've only put 2500kms on since the work in March. Front end puking oil again... spotted two little drops on the driveway as a heads up. Same experienced tech got the...

Appeared to be coming from lower oil line fitting, located behind the power steering pump. They removed and replaced the gasket. They figured bad gasket or wasn't properly seated on original assembly. Put it all back together and cleaned it up... no visible leak currently, but a tough spot to...

I called Monday and had an appt. for today. Most of the oil was in the vicinity of the power steering pump. They removed the pump to find a bolt behind there covered in oil. They removed and replaced lower oil line gasket. The technician did a nice job of cleaning up the oil in the engine...

What is the chance that this is a result of me moving from factory toyota oil, to Mobil 1 0w20?

Hey All, I just changed the oil in my 2018 T4R about 2000km ago. It was last done at the dealership when I bought it a few months used. I used 0W20 Mobil 1, and factory filters. No issues during the change. I did my previous 2013 T4R for years with no issue. Just returned from a lengthy...

I'm gonna go with this stuff as recommended by many here, as well as on the bottle is says compatible with the appropriate Toyota part #'s/ fluid. Many people have commented in the product review on Amazon as well...

I'm in Fredericton. You? First Toyota and I will say the dealership seems ok... wasn't happy with a couple things early on which has soured me. Never been to happy with dealerships in the past and don't really trust them. Haven't been back since they failed my inspection on brakes, when...

Updates I wanted to take a minute and thank everyone for the information shared with me a few weeks ago. It has been extremely helpful. I try to stay on top of the recommended service intervals on all my vehicles over the years. Not seeing recommended intervals in the Toyota docs, probably...

Thanks QwikKotaTX. Did the filters last night.. definitely overdue. I've used the Lucas 75W90 in my Chev with no issues. Will pick up a few bottles locally and do my diffs. Picked up the gaskets when I was at the dealer yesterday. That leaves the Transfer Case. I've only seen Royal...

Not much for options.... Well the past couple of days have been interesting in reading about the different types of fluids recommended for T4R's. Based on what I've read, I am inclined to stay with OEM fluids. Stopped by the dealership today to price and pick up the filters. First: No OEM...

Hey All, I have a feeling I’ve got a few maintenance items with my T4R that I’ve neglected and would like to address ASAP. It’s a 2013 with 140 000 kms on it. I’ve regularly changed the oil as recommended, every 16k kms with Mobil 1. I’ve also kept up with the Prop Shaft greasing with...

I have never owned a vehicle that required a slip yoke to be greased So This Thread had lots of information for me. I got lots of great advice from a couple of members through a pm and I really appreciate it. Here is what solved my Driveline clunk. Vehicle is a 13 t4r with a 115km and I had...
