- When you hear the word “Toyota” you think reliability, longevity and high resale value. Well maybe not anymore! Has Toyota ruined there reputation with this truck? Also what am I going to do with my 2 2024 Toyota Tundras?
2024 Toyota Tundra SR5 TRD OFFROAD - Auta a dopravní prostředky
I almost bought a Tundra last year and the best part of the truck was the powertrain. Happy now I didnt because I couldn’t live with the thought of is my engine going to blow.
Change the oil every 5k miles or sooner. It's a turbo, so you cannot be lazy on the maintenance. The dealerships don't care what happens after the warranty period. Oil changes are cheap, swapping that motor isn't.
Another great video!
There are actually dealerships in the US that won’t take the Tundras on a trade right now until this gets rectified
Have a 23’ SR5 TRD Off Road. Really enjoying the truck and plan to keep it. There is no other new truck in this price range I’d rather have, recall or not. Enjoy your truck man!
When you travel to remote areas with your truck, make sure you have cell service and if not make sure someone else always knows where you are going in the event you break down and don't have the ability to call for a tow.
You could always carry a motorcycle in the bed of the truck so you have a way to get back to civilization if need be.
Maybe you will luck out and have one of the engines that doesn't have the problem.
Good informative video. 👍
Good job and video Brother. Very informative
2023 TRD Sport. I’m rolling with you. Love this truck. Love the mods I have made. My truck is not on the recall - so far.
I Have to admit, I am with you on all the way with your project. You have me interested on how far you will go without a broken engine if any.
So sorry to hear about this issue.
5000 mile oil change if you plan on keeping it for 250,000 10,000 changes if your getting rid of it at 100,000. Turbos cook the oil. ! ! !
Yea in Arabian gulf everyone changes the oil not the same as factory got problems we change every 10k km
How’s the towing with the tundra? And how much do you plan to tow with it?
It does seem off the recall is on Tundras, but not on Sequoias. As long as Toyota stands behind it fully, I would not be that hateful. ALL the American brands have had multiple recalls in recent years, with the US government remaining quite silent on some serious safety recalls, IE brakes failing, fires. Hope they take care of it for you Tyson.
The Sequoia only has the hybrid engine, and the recall is only for the non-hybrid engine
@@michaellarson2506 hybrids are failing, too. See the Tundra forum.
Subscribed nearly 3 years and just recently realised we are in the same ish part on the planet lol. Ive been driving Toyotas , mainly 4runners for the last 20 or so years. Toyota will sort it out, they have no choice. Also I have an odd property that needs a road , mutual friend may contact you lol
Hello again my friend, thank you for another great video, have a great weekend 😄👍🌹
My f-150 has roughly the same oil change interval. Seems crazy to me too not sure if I should follow it or do it sooner.
When doing your next oil change get the oil tested for metal if so I would put some Lucas oil treatment I use that stuff in almost every thing I own It might help your motor last a bit longer or I hate to say this but build a custom motor or have one built I know this sounds crazy and expensive but at least you know the motor is build right just a thought
Great 👍 looking tundra!!!
In Arabian gulf too we didn’t get the recal on the engine for lc300 or lx600 or ls500 …i don’t know because another factory or time matter
Careful with the heat, exertion happens easier/sooner
Respect you have some balls putting a lift on it with the recall. but my dude 16,000km oil change intervals?????
Hey I have the maintenance plan and this is what Toyota is recommending
@@workplaytv I know man but if you're keeping it for the long haul just don't do it. That kind of oil change interval is for soccer moms/mallcrawlers. I kinda was in the same boat as you with my 2022 f250 7.3 with the lifter failures. everybody told me to get rid of it when I got it new, every supply house i went to they hated on it. 30,000 miles later towing/hauling heavy and working the truck hard it runs perfect. 90 day/3000 mile oil changes max tho. do you brother, forget the haters.
I’ve been waiting to hear your take on the whole situation. Doesn’t give you a great feeling in your stomach, but I’m sure they will be behind you if anything happens.
I doubt it because Toyota will VOID his warranty in a New York second due to his Mods!
You do have a point.
The best insurance against the issues these engines are having is more frequent oil changes, and doing oil sample testing so you have records of how the engine is wearing, and if there is any issues with debris in the motor. Toyota and other OE’s don’t care if your engine fails outside of warranty, which is when your engine wear from lack of more frequent oil changes will take place. I would never go more than 5k on oil changes. As someone said in the comments, oil changes are cheap, engines are not….especially not this one. In my 2024 i have changed the oil 3 times and there’s only 2500 miles on it. The tuner is also a bad idea, just my 2 cents. If the engine fails and the dealer puts a scanner on it, they will deny you warranty.…lifting the truck is not a big deal, the tuner could easily end up haunting you if there is any warranty needed if there’s a failure. I hope your trucks last a long time and you have no issues, but you’re playing with fire here, and these trucks are some expensive toys. The Car Care Nut and others have stated this engine is one of the most complicated Toyota has produced, modifying them is a fools game
What is the tune using?
My dealership is changing my oil every 5,000 miles. 2024SR5.
Not gonna lie though, I've always loved my American Made truck and I'm a die-hard Ford Guy. I also like Chevy/GMC and RAM, I do like the Japanese trucks that Toyota and Nissan make and I'm definitely not happy that Toyota had to get rid of there 5.7 V8 engine. The fact that the EPA is doing that is absolutely ridiculous and trying to force us buying hybrids or ev trucks which is absolutely insane. We should be able to have the freedom to pick. what engine we can have in our trucks like for me I want the Coyote V8 in my F150 not the 3.5 Ecoboost. I'm glad Ford is still offering the 5.0 Coyote V8 and GMC/Chevy have two V8 options (5.3 V8 and 6.2 V8). As an American I despite the US government and the EPA. There's my rant
If it were me and if it was still offered in Canada I would trade the Tundras while you can for two Titans. But right now whether, GM, Ford or Dodge they all have their issues as well. Honestly I am quite happy with my 22 Frontier.
The crazy thing aren't some dealers still selling them?
Hybrid engines will be recalled too. Not in the immediate recall since the vehicle can still be driven with the hybrid motor briefly if the gas engine fails.
Someone posted a screen shot of a data chart, one had less than 200 miles and I think it was a 2024.
I would never change the oil every 16,000km. Change fluids every 5-8000km in my opinion. The conditions you drive in and with towing it adds a lot of extra stresses.
Agree. Haven’t towed at all really but it is crazy that is how they do it
Being someone that's been in the car business my whole life, I'm worried about these new ones. 20-24 in a lot of different vehicles are junk. A lot of these suv and small cars are just throw away cars.
I watch too much you tube I guess but your right on. Everything has issues. Yeah I think today’s vehicles are better in some ways but all have issues. Honestly I wouldn’t know what to buy presently, keep the ‘08 Camry I guess. At least they built those pretty good.
Hey man, I’m a 2024 tundra sr5 owner currently has about 2500 miles on it. I been thinking about getting rid of it everyday cuz just living with it the anxiety of not knowing when the engine will fail on me is rough. What makes you want to keep yours? Is it because you’ve already modified it and got plans for the truck? If yours was still stock today, would you get rid of it?
I’m gonna ride it out. If it actually does effect all of the trucks Toyota will eventually be forced to a lawsuit.
Keeping mine also. Built 6/23 18,000. Running great. Toyota will take care of the problem if it ever exist
@@juniors4118 where can we check when the vehicle was made?
The conditions you drive in with your truck would indicate a 5000 mile(8000km) oil change.
Hybrids haven't been recalled because it's a safety recall at this point. Non hybrids will lose all power where as a hybrid will still have motive power to apparently get u to a safe spot if the motor goes
I saw one guy who had his Tundra in the dealer having his blown engine serviced. When he went in the dealer to check on the progress they had parts of his truck strewn about all over the floor. Dealer service centers are not equipped to accommodate this major of a service at scale. This is something nobody is talking about regarding this situation. How do you as a customer know you are getting the proper quality of work done to your specific vehicle?
That was before the recall. And as for me I have only had standard service and oil changes. Other than standing over every mechanics shoulders in the entire world how do you know what service you are getting? How do you know the chef at your restaurant washed their hands properly? Guess it’s a gamble we all take everyday in our lives
@TheGettyAdventures channel did a good overview on these engine recalls and what Toyotas remedy might be. He indicated that Toyota will do a short block replacement (block ,crankshaft, pistons/rods) but doesn't include the valvetrain (camshaft, lifters) since its an overhead cam engine. If this debris is found to cause bearing failure in the bottom end, then it has also caused damage everywhere also and they should do a long block replacement at minimum. Hopefully your 2024 trucks won't be affected and/or it was isolated to a particular engine plant only. It will be interesting to see what you find inside the oil filters when you do the first oil changes, such as sand from the casting process or any metal particles. Fingers crossed for ya Tyson! I first subbed to your channel when I was truck shopping back in 2020 and your review of your then 2020 white F350 helped me decide on getting my 21 F350 Platinum diesel. Still love my truck and appreciate your content brother!
I think the biggest thing was Toyota not giving a lot of security to buyers that paid a lot of money for these trucks. It feels like a move an American company would do to its customers.
They americanized, it becoming more like greedy Apple. Sub par products with huge price tags and nickel and dime everything.
Excited to see what’s next for this truck and watch you put it to work
Look don’t take any chances leave the 3” kit on tires looks awesome try to sell the truck on your own. Purchase the new bad bass F-350 with the huge gas engine Toyota is not a work truck with your specs you’re hard on a truck only truck can keep up with your demand is Ford. Ford builds tough trucks peace brother
Told Ya !😂 Those engines are a ticking time bomb . They say it’s debris but it’s really a lack of lubrication issue on the bearings due to a bad design. Dealers here in the USA are refusing them on trade ! Sad thing is Toyota had all the time in the world to get this truck right since they took so long to come to the market with it . They should have kept the 5.7 V8 and maybe refined it and added the 10 speed as an option like Ford offers in the F-150 5.0 Coyote. Toyota ain’t what they used to be unfortunately and it’s time to move on from them asap when it comes to trucks !
I wonder if running 5w-40 T6 would fix it
What an idiotic comment. I’m sure you re much smarter than the engineers at Toyota. This engine is not new by the way. But I’m sure your self proclaimed expertise would disagree.
@@reempire888 I believe the main bearing design is new. There's a video of a guy talking to the Japanese chief design engineer and how he designed it. Be careful calling people idiots. Some of us have learned a lot more about this than you, and some of us are mechanical engineers specializing in internal combustion engines like me.
My understanding on the possible problem is the camshaft is hollow and the debris in the camshaft is not being cleaned out properly, this happened with another car maker in the past.
It’s “I told you so” pricks like this guy who jizz in their pants every time they get to post their juvenile crap.
2 years, 20k miles so what’s the problem?
Beautiful truck!
I think the fact Toyota put out a recall so soon means they will fix it and a lot of times is out of precautionary. Every truck will have its issues. Plus there’s lots of people with over 120k miles and no issues too
Toyota will get it worked out.
Have some more Kool-Aid.
Exactly. Fanboys gotta hope against hope.@@rand49er
If the engine does fail and Toyota either can't or won't fix it in a timely manner, you can always go to just a regular mechanic and ask them to put a Dodge engine and transmission. Might be better to ask for a rebuilt engine that's done correctly instead of a brand new one.
A good mechanic will know best.
🤣Dodge engines and Transmissions are pure garbage..
@@charlesjackson1700 my 2005 Dodge is still running fine with no engine or transmission problems.
I had a 1994 Dodge 1 ton van with a 5.9 l. No engine or transmission problems in the 25 years I owned it.
Maybe you unfortunately got a lemon.
Hybrid hasn’t been recalled yet because when the gas engine goes down the electric motor will still get you to the side of the road!
There's a spreadsheet to accumulate data on these failures on the Tundra forum. I've seen it. There are both hybrid and nonhybrid vehicles on it. Also, there's more talk about his being a design flaw rather than a machining debris issue. The one engine I saw disassembled showed the rod cap right next to the failed main bearing. It was seriously discolored. The main bearing must've been bright cherry red to do that. Not every engine will fail, probably. But, a higher than desired percentage just might ... they already are. If this is a design problem, Toyota will go kicking and screaming before they'll admit to it. Heck, right now they're calling this a "safety recall." Yeah, right.
What’s funny is Toyota has had problems before in all of their cars trucks and suvs. Every manufacturer goes through it. I had a 2008 Scion TC and 3 weeks after I threw a rod and got rid of it for a new car I got a letter that my engine maybe one of the ones effected by over consuming/burning oil. This shit happens y’all need to stop freaking out because they went from a v8 to a turbo motor. This issue is quality control because when it was developed we were in Covid times. Lack of workers leads to things being missed especially when the demand was so high it was unable to be met.
Trudeau and Guilbeault are punishing you for not buying a Hybrid LMAO 🤣
I had 2023 tundra limited trd and drove it 41,000 miles in the oil field and the windows and doors rattled so bad I run Nissan Titan under it. Toyota needs to get their stuff together. The inside of the new tundra are junk and I have owed 7 tundra. I bought 22 tundra and bought the 23 tundra and both were the worst trucks I’ve ever owned from Toyota. I still Toyota at hart but this Titan feels like what tundra guys wanted.
Im an owner of 2010 Tacoma Truck Access Cab. Bought it used at 30,000 miles in 2017 and now has 157,000 miles. I love my truck.
I have had a few Tundra friends who wish they purchased a Tacoma. Which shocked me. But riding in their could hear more engine than I hear in my vehicle. Oh well as long as my baby runs like a champ, I'll hang onto my Tacoma. Value Value Value. Even my mechanic wants my truck. I just laugh. One thing for sure. No electric vehicles for me.
My 22 tundra so far ok for 34k
I hope you know that once you modify your truck you most likely loose your warranty. So I was told.
Lmaoo getting an exhaust it's a v6 tho
Still sounds better
I’m from Dartmouth area and I have a 2022 tundra limited with the TRD off-road package. I have 90,000 km on it and I have had no problems with mine. The Canadian vehicles are on recall if you look into your Toyota app it’ll show up in the recall information section. Just like you I am keeping mine long term this has been one of the most comfortable trucks I’ve owned and driven. Yes it has its pros and cons but every vehicle does it’s not perfect. I look forward to seeing your tundra build as from your Super duties I know it’s gonna look good👍🏾
I have a 2022 sr5. Im hanging on to it for now.
Better trade your wife’s for another 4Runner before they switch to next model year…..😃
the tundras 2024 have no recall
ALL YOU TALKED ABOUT WAS YOUR CAR !!!! COME ON MAN. !!! .
@@aquaangelina7270 and???? Or should I say AND?????????????
Can you put a 5.7 V8 in her??LOL
Would love to
As usual the Toyota haters are hard at work and completely ignoring the fact ford gm and dodge (or whatever it’s called nowadays) has had many engine failures the hemis eat cams the ecodiesel was junk gm active fuel management has been killing engines for over a decade with no recall 6.2 has a very high failure rate ford had its 5.4 and eco boost fiasco. But the big difference is you won’t get a repair bill from Toyota and it will still be a better truck and better investment than the big 3. If you have a brain in your head you’ll know this is nothing to worry about. I expect you’ll eventually get a recall and it’ll get taken care of and it’ll be a good truck for many years
No. Don’t sell!! Good truck!!
Time to go back to the fords and never look back
Hybrid’s aren’t included in the first batch because the electric motor can get you to safety. Also statistically I wouldn’t worry about your engine failing. If you look at the 250,000 plus 3.4/3.5 engines produced and the few failures you have a slim chance of failure. All these chicken little’s of the Internet are funny as hell to me. No skin in the game but they like to set off all the alarms😂😂
Still take the tundra over the POS DFM gm’s, eco boost, or ram.
OK FANBOI🤡
@@theeconomist100 facts seem to escape you do they? Internet warriors are the best
The people under warranty have no skin the game. Gonna take some real balls keeping one out of warranty with a 32k repair bill. I can’t wait to see the gen 3 fan boys out of warranty. Bet they moved on to their next truck by then.
@@DFWrancher if it’s going to have issues they’ll happen long before the 5 year powertrain warranty is up. If people are that worried about the drivetrain, there is always extended warranty available through Toyota.
