The Tacoma is made in the Baja plant. I believe the majority of the engines for the Tacoma are built in Alabama.

If the new ones at the dealer have the same sound then it’s most likely normal. A universal bearing what is that. The only one I can think of is the rod bearing. A bad Rod bearing isn’t likely to get silent. Someone needs to try to listen to the sound on a Tacoma.

One of the videos Mr Pro posted sounded like an exhaust leak to me. I doubt it’s anything internal. Some of the older 4.7 engines had a faulty exhaust manifold. They would leak when cold and the video sounded similar in my opinion.

a version of the t24a is built in Georgetown. The V35a is not built in Georgetown at all.

I doubt there will be any cylinder wash down. The hybrids have been around for years and don’t seem to have this problem. The engine only shuts off once warmed up.

I’d love to find a decent water system. My towns water supply is from a spring so we all know how that water is.

The vehicle has a 12v starter for back up. It’s used for cold weather starts. The traction motor is the primary starter for the LC.

Let’s see what everyone has

I’ve used the rain-x on 2 of my vehicles. I’ve noticed the nozzles don’t spray as good after a few years of use.

Nope not at all. I’m just tired of my nozzles getting clogged up

What does everyone recommend for a cold weather windshield washer fluid. I’ve used the orange rain-x in the past. I think the Rain-x gums up the spray nozzles over time.

Totally different block. The tundra is a V6. The LC is a 4 cylinder.

Hopefully it’s something simple that’s being overlooked. The engine has been around for 3 years. I haven’t read of failures with this engine.

I’ve bought a new vehicle with about 220 on it. The vehicle was a dealer swap per my request.

I believe you may be hearing the direct injectors. I’ve read the Toyota high pressure fuel pump can be noisy.

The oil filter wrench and drain tool aren’t needed. The 2.4 turbo has a spin on filter. These don’t have a cartridge style filter.

I believe it will be reliable. Toyota isn’t known for producing junk. The engine has been out for a bit without any hiccups. If a problem does arise Toyota takes care of it.

That’s better than waiting 2 months after it got to the port.

Dissent off-road has made some accessories for the LC. The LC hasn’t been out long enough for companies to get ahold of one to create accessories.

Same here, my dealer told me yesterday mine was off of QC hold.

I believe mine is in Portland. My LC is in the 5000 range. I asked my dealer yesterday and it was still on QC hold. I hope mine comes off QC hold this week.

I’ve seen 1 GX. I don’t think I’ve seen a Landcruiser yet.

I think the Car Care Nut stated the hitch was part of the frame. I’ll have to see when I get mine.

I’m not sure if you can since it’s a hybrid. Try checking the settings in the radio.

The heated seat buttons are next to the display. The GX gets them. The landcruiser in foreign markets get them.

Awesome review, I can’t wait to get mine.

There shouldn’t be any quality differences. The vehicles should be built the exact same.

Mine is coming from Hino. The majority of the parts are built in the same factories and shipped to Hino or Tahara.
