    2016 Tacoma POSSIBLE REAR DIF LEAK! Help

    Have you checked the oil level in youre diff? From the pictures it doesn't look like an active leak. If youre oil level is good I wouldn't worry about it other than checking youre diff at every oil change, something that should be done anyways.

    Noise from Driver side Front Wheel - 2014 Taco

    I wouldn't change the coil packs until they need to be changed. When you do have to change them you can get cheap ones, don't do that, they may work for awhile, for the long haul you're better off replacing as needed with OEM coil packs.

    Bed covers do they help with mpg?

    Dropping youre tailgate or removing tailgate and getting one if those nets to replace it will basically have the same effect. The covers, hard or soft, look much better and add a measure of security for stuff in tbe bed.

    Use of ECT in the Tacoma

    No, I think it was we wernt holding our tongues right or something. When you first started talking about this I tried mine and I thought ect just eliminated s6 but I wandered why dash would show s6 but not be in 6th, but I just accepted that. Then when you came back and said youres would go in...

    Use of ECT in the Tacoma

    Yeah, mine is the same way. Even though dash says S6 it won't go into 6th until you get up to speed and then breath it a little, then it will drop into 6th gear.

    Your Dogs

    About a month ago I took the boys out for their last wiz of the night, Shane spotted a skunk and decided it would be a good idea to chase it outa his yard. He came flying back around the house sneezing, crying, and just in total disarray. Apparently he didn't take a direct hit because just a...

    Gas mileage with and without using the ECT button

    Not disputing youre results but I always get better mileage when heading towards the beach than on return trip back home. No mountain driving but just a slight elevation change.

    2018 Tacoma engine noise!! Annoying

    Are you running 87 octane gas? I run mostly 93 octane and have experimented with 89 octane a couple of times and my engine has never sounded like that. I have also never experienced the supposed noise from the self cleaning injectors. I could be totally wrong but it would be something to try...

    Gas mileage with and without using the ECT button

    After youre first post, maybe someone else's I don't remember now, but anyway, I started playing with my ect to see what it would or wouldn't do. Like you said in drive with ect on it does go into 6th gear, only sport mode cuts out 6th gear. Always kinda wandered why the ect light in the dash...

    3rd gen MPG question

    Wow, I'm glad I didn't get a trd or a 4x4. I love the looks of the trd's but I don't need a 4x4. On my 4x2 sr5 I average 22mpg, ive seen as low as 19, high of 26.

    2nd Gen vs 3rd gen

    Its all in what you want. I used to drive a 2nd gen as a work truck, was actually the reason I chose my 3rd gen for my personal truck. As far as 2nd gen vs 3rd gen they both have their +'s and -'s. I love my 3rd gen and wouldn't trade it for anything unless it was I just wanted a new truck. Of...
