    Dealership installed lift kits...

    This shouldn’t be a dealbreaker however, especially if you choose to install this kit on your own… Yes paying the excess premium at a dealer may factor in. Otherwise it may just take a little bit more time removing the front wheels and adjusting the front coil-overs up a bit on the toytech...

    Pedal commander vs Sprint booster?

    I wouldn’t worry about it. That being said I t would only affect warrantee if there was a failure directly related to the throttle control system. If that happened which is unlikely, it is very easy to uninstall before taking it to the dealer. Regardless, it is highly unlikely this will causes...

    Pedal commander vs Sprint booster?

    I do not have any experience with the pedal commander but I do have the sprint booster on mine and would share the same comments about it. I think they’re pretty much the same exact thing with a few minor differences in control options. Very happy with the sprint booster. Find the one with the...

    (Group Buy) Techstream diagnostic cables to fit your win-7, 8 or 10 (32-64) OS

    So just so I’m clear, this item is the OBD 2 cable AND also the software necessary to basically have the Toyota tech stream scan tool on your personal laptop? I currently use a Microsoft Surface Pro 4 with windows 10 so I’m assuming it would be compatible with this product? And this product...

    K&N Oil filters? Anyone using them?

    Those weld on nuts are stupid. If you need a socket on that nut to remove the filter it’s way over tightened. The filter should be tightened by hand and therefore loosened by hand or with the simple pair of oil filter pliers.... This is in reference to the spin on filters not the cartridge style...

    I have a 2016 trail and it soon after new developed a squeak from the front left primarily on sweeping left-hand turns over bumps. Like when you make a left-hand turn at an intersection. In the end it ended up being the hood squeak concerns listed previously. Lubed the latch and adjusted the...

    Rear window woes

    Try disconnecting both battery cables and then connecting them together for 30 seconds to a minute. Reattach battery cables and try to reinitialize all of the windows and see if that changes anything. It might not, but I’ve had that fix many weird electrical problems on different vehicle makes...

    KDSS Long term reliability?

    So all you did was simply unplug the connector to the KDSS control unit? I’m assuming you have warning lights illuminated on your dash correct?

    2010 engine block coolant drain points?

    Using the block drains is not necessary and it will not remove any more contaminants then just draining and refilling the system several times after letting it run for a while after each refill… just make sure you do a couple of drain and fills with the correct mixture of Toyota coolant (after...

    Transmission fluid change, Good or bad idea for 2010 Sr5 I want to take to 250K miles

    Just follow the manufacturers interval guideline for replacing the transmission fluid as posted in your owners manual. This can be done by pulling the drain plug on the pan and refilling, letting it run for a few moments. Repeat the process a few times and on the final pass bring the fluid...
