With ect on and in sport mode top gear is 4th, you can manually bump it to 5th however normal top gear is 4th.

Beings that 3 peddlers dont have etc id say its more of a transmission programing thing than engine performance. The engine does seem to perform better in ect but probably just because its not short shifting.

Just spit balling here but somewhere on here I read that 4th gear was 1:1, 5th gear is basically overdrive, 6th gear would be double overdrive. Maybe yota is trying to tell us that if youre pulling hard enough or running hard enough to use ect you don't need to be in 6th gear. Too much...

I don't know, I tried mine with ect on in sport mode and it still wouldn't go into 6th at 70mph.

That opens the door for a whole lot more questions. Id like to see the difference in torque and hp gains in ect. Also if youre planning on using ect should you fill up with premium vs 89 or 87 octane. Mine seems to run best on 89 under just normal day to day driving, 93 seems to be overkill on a...

Been reading some on the ov tune. For those of you that have done this is there any down side to it? What I'm really interested in is there any adverse effects on engine or drive train longevity?

Thanks wso2, this is my first toyota and I'll be the first to tell you I'm well behind the curve on figuring out what all these newfangled doodads do.

Where is this injection pump filter you speak of located? I seen a short write up on it for a 4 banger, does the 3.5 have one? Interested to see if this is something I need to investigate.

I haven't had any issues with my truck however I have had an occasion or two when someone has called my cellphone and wanted to know what I wanted, that I had just called them. Nope, not me. I don't know how this spoffing and cloning phone numbers and all this underhanded crap works but I would...

My 19 sr5 4x2 came with the 245/75r 16's. I don't know if the 4x4's come with the same size or not.

I would be highly skeptical of the dealer paying for a windshield unless youve got the extended warranty and service contract. I know when I bought mine they were pushing some kind of deal on extended warranty that covered scratches, paint chips, and dings, however it added a considerable amount...

When I had my Ram and was on the Ram Forum there were a lot if red heads over there that swore by redline. If I remember right redline makes a couple different grades of gear oil, just make sure it has the proper GL rating. If you go to the redline website you can check it out before you order...

I believe the proper proceedure for reseting it is turn key to on position, make sure trip meter is in odometer mode, press and hold the plunger in, turn key off, while still holding plunger in turn key back on, when the numbers stop unwinding to 0 turn key back off and release plunger. The next...

I'm no expert on this but I don't believe there is any differrnce between the 18 and 19 beds, its just that the websites haven't updated their info. If it was me id find a dealer that sold the particular brand I was interested in and ask them personally.

I have my pcs and acc both set at least sensitive settings just for this reason, id turn them both completely off if I could without having any warning lights. Id be interested in how many accidents have been caused just because of these 2 systems making abrupt and unnecessary speed changes. I...

When I got my 19 taco it came with carpet floor mats. When I decided that I needed some rubber mats I bought the stock toyota ones from the dealer, they work just fine. Ive never had weather tech or huskys but can't see them,being that much better.

Maybe not youre gas cap at all. I had a gas cap light on my old f150, like you, replaced the cap, still had the light. After hours of searching I found that a squirrel had chewed a hole in the vent line from the top of the tank that goes to filler neck. Less than $5 to fix.

The only way ive figured out is to use a 2nd key, use the second key to lock door from outside, not the push button on the key but actually put the key in the door and turn it.

The 6 speed is basically a 4 speed + a double overdrive. The high gearing of 6th gear is strictly for gas mileage while cruising flat and level, pretty much any load will kick it out if 6th gear so as to get some pulling power. If we had a big v8 under the hood with lots of hp and torque it...

That was only some dealerships, I delivered parts to 2 ram dealers, had I taken my ram to either one of them for service and requested 5/20 synthetic I would have gotten store brand oil from NAPA, auto zone, or advance auto, whichever was the cheapest for them at the time. They talk a good game...
