Personaly I think the 3rd gen Tacoma has the worst operating AT I have ever owned. Shifts too quickly from 1 to 4 on take off, especially irritating when making a turn from a stop. Doesn't like to downshift when I want it to. And slight shudder (feels like in too high of a gear) when cruising...

I feel the same.

Mine does not have the taco holder!

Yes, luckily!

I’m leaning more towards the Mexico plant being the problem like, I think, you suggested before.

That was something else I was when trying to narrow down why some are like this. How were they broke in? I did mine exactly like the owners manual says. Sounds like you did too, so I guess that theory is out.

Ok, not doing that now lol. Maybe off a cliff may fix it.

Next gas I’m putting 92 (or higher?)

The service tech said of Toyota says it’sa torque converter issue, then they replace the transmission also

Yep, that is the exact number I call. Option 2 for English, Then option 8 because I have an open case.

They checked the ATF level and it was fine. They even drained it and replaced it (supposedly). What Tacoma do you have and where was it Made? Mine is 23 TRD OR / double cab / short bed / made in Mexico.

Nothing unusual. Service tech said it sounds and feels like a torque converter issue to him. I should hear back from Toyota Wednesday. Let you know what they say

My tacoma drove better when I first got it. It started feeling bad around 7000 miles or so. But yes, I do know it needs more time now to adjust since it was reset. We shall see. More miles closer to no warranty:confused:

So no, still seems to be driving the same. Toyota did call me on my way home and the guy I’ve been working with there said to give him a few days, he has field tech he wants to contact about it. He wasn’t satisfied with what the dealer told me.

Thanks for the even better news lol

If you lived close I’d let you drive it.

Possessed is probably the perfect term for it.

No I havn’t yet. Dealership is resetting the learn values and I am picking it up p today

Just got a call from dealer. Toyota told me on phone last night they were still waiting on the field rep. Dealer just told me they ran all the tests Toyota has told them to run and reported the results. Toyota said nothing is wrong with the truck. The dealer is not very happy about it because he...

That is the issue I am finding. So far this is what I have heard from others: 1. It’s normal 2. Mine doesn’t do that 3. It’s not normal 4. After market tune fixed it 5. After market tune made it better, not fixed 6. Quit crying 7. It’s a truck not a sports car The biggest problem to me are the...
